He's so clueless and stupid that he doesn't even know what he doesn't even know.

...like, where do you even start with someone like that.

When you're lacking in knowledge, just replace with arrogance. Nailed it.

I'm posting in here that CD009s are super weak and i broke one with 150hp so you can read somewhere on the internet that it's weak and move on to another choice, preferably one that's harder and more expensive because nobody likes an easy bulletproof off the shelf option.

That's actually a brilliant idea.

In fact, here's a better one:

buy up 100's of Miata 1.6 5 speeds for literally pennies.

make multiple claims in multiple posts in multiple forums and bookface that the 1.6 Miata 5 speed is an overlooked gem of a trans that has been kept a secret for all these years.

wait a bit for the morans to absorb the info and regurgitate it everywhere.

sell each for thousands, make a killing.

For dedicated e85 use they're low compression
for dedicated pump gas use they're high compression
for mixed use they're not ideal for either

no one's gonna explain the basics for you

Oh no, I meant for daily walking around kinda stuff. That setup seems a bit over kill for your day to day slips and fails

Limp peepee bad at everything.

For a best of everything engine, that's pretty un-special in every way. Kudos for springing for the unnecessary Carillo rods though. You, or whomever you bought that mess from sure knows how to burn money.

I'm having flashbacks. This dude even wanted a T56.

I've got several Z friends that would love your junkyard source of $500 cd009s. cd009s were developed in late 2005 and only present in 2006 Revup or 07-08 HR cars. cd001/cd006/cd008s all had some sort of synchro issue, so anytime a spare cd009 pops up, it get snatched up pretty quick..... supply<demand.

Show me one person besides Emilio that can compete with that part list. Keep in mind all it need's to run as is is wiring harness and intercooler plumbing.

What's your point with this thread?^^^ you know this car runs right? He wants me to buy his rear end but I want an 8.8.

Yes, they are unnecessary for 99% of the cars here but I would like to push mine further than most are pushed here if you couldn't tell

I'm saying you guys both have similar goals, are going/went about it similar ways, and had same wants initially.

I'm well aware the car runs. I am a previous owner of that car.

You have a lot of changes to be made to that motor if you want to push further than what has been pushed here.

I'm in for OP "pushing further".

When does pushing become shoving?

when you forget the lube

...I bet you a poz-cat he still thinks a random list of expensive parts is all it takes to build a fast Miata, or impress everyone here. Who even needs talent, or knowledge. This isn't an audi, after all.

Yeah, there's a 650 horsepower BP drag Miata near me. I'm not sure which transmission he selected for that.

The fastest 1/4 mile BP isn't even in a Miata. GET GOOD, SCRUBS.

(Doesn't have Carillo rods either)

Alright alright alright, if we want some quality material, we need to lighten up on this guy.

I wish we hadn't chased away that Super Pro Fabrication Welder Guy. Remember he was the one spouting about building twin turbo Lamborghinis? He then proceeded to incorrectly route the primaries on his twin scroll BP turbo, then we got those semi-psychotic rants. man I loved that stuff! Ya that dude..He had forgotten more than we will ever know too.
