Default Exocet / FM Voodoo Build

Have had a '96 M w/ FM II kit for about a year. Originally bought as a future Exocet donor, but then stumbled across an unstarted kit which included '00 donor and FM Voodoo kit!

Build plan is as follows:
- Exocet Sport Chassis (w/ double-diagonals & steel floors)
- '00 donor roller-skate w/ 65K miles
- FM Voodoo kit
- V-Maxx Extreme coilovers
- MSM Torsen (4.10 ratio)
- Sparco Sprint seats
- APR Carbon Wing

Made it a temporary roller for trip home... will blow apart for suspension rebuild and turbo kit install...

First step was to inventory and fondle all the shiny bits... :-)

yup sure. Some pics and comments here: https://www.miataturbo.net/meet-gree...uild-nz-88214/

unfortunately we have a local version of the UK exocet here in NZ which is a little different to the US version so not too sure what tips I could give you. I will say that all the hard work is SO worth it
good luck!
