Any good Miatas in the local junkyards you don't mind tipping us off to? I know about the two red ones at ACE. I need a front bumper cover (preferably Montego Blue).

In fact, I happen to have pics of my car (including tweaked bumper cover) at the St Augustine autocross site from 2 months ago:

I don't know of any off hand but I'm gonna try ACE on Main and U Pull. I need a GM IAT, Yota coils, kia neck, and temp sensor

Last I heard the miatas they had didn't have engines in them. I'll see if I can find a 323 or maybe a 1.6 kia

Ace should have plenty of the Kia water necks. I got two from there in the past and specifically passed on several that just weren't in as good of shape (dirty). In case you don't already know, you can now search their website as well, but I'm not sure how often they update the website:

I doubt you'll have much luck with the Toyota COPs though as they don't have much newer than 2000.

I was thinking the same thing about the coils so I went ahead and ordered mine off ebay. Decided I didn't need a Kia waterneck and I'm doing a spacerless reroute with the stock thermostat housing

Occasionally there will be NAs in some of the junkyards, but they always seem to disappear.
I can never find any NB parts, I need a stock exhaust

where were you fulltilt? I thought you were coming down? for those of you who know the track I ran a 57.490 just about two secs faster since the last time I went out, I was keeping up with more than a couple of fast cars lol. I was only a tenth of a second behind a fully built MR2 with like "350 to the wheels" it was fast but sucked in the turns. Btw guys same place on the 12th If any of you can make it then....

Sounds like a fun time. I'll see if I can make the next one.
