This is my year or 2 late intro post.
The Car
90 miata with 1.6 and disco potato at 13psi.
Got the car for free from my best friends dad when my friend passed away. When i got the car it was just naturally aspirated with a mountain of turbo parts to go on it and is now getting more parts to be a weekend track car and canyon ripper.

Truck
06 Silverado 2500 6.0L 8" lift on 37s and mild motor work- Eventually do a built 6.0 with procharger

Me
25 year old dad with family and house. Work as an engineer and used to run a mechanic shop so have a good background of mechanical things and have acess to solidworks and many fab shops. (if someone needs drawings made up send me a pm and a sketch and i can hook it up). Not a poor college or hs kid and have no intention of doing anything half ***.

Anyways awesome forum and lots of great knowledge floating around here.

 

Welcome! What part of seattle?

 

In shorewood kinda by white center. Where are you located

 

I'm in rainier beach

 

Trolled your build thread I've actually seen your car on ig quite a bit. How did you like tork motors dump tune? Got any spare 1.8l blocks or engines

 

I swapped back to my stock 1.8. I have it running 14# right now. Plan is to tear the built motor apart over winter and have it back in for next summer. Wanted to have a fun car for summer.

 

Welcome! Sorry for the situation that lead to the miata ownership, but good to have a new promising member added to the community.

 

Sorry to hear about the passing of your friend, but good on you for keeping the project going. Looking forward to your build thread.

 

Thanks for all the support! really like the forum people actually help instead of troll as long as you aren't rice.

 

Sorry to hear about your friend man, that sucks. I'm just a touch north of seattle, good to find more miata people in the area!

Welcome to the forum!

 

Welcome to the forum. Any track day plans?

 

^This was my next question

 

Havent looked at any events yet this summer because theres still a bit of tuning and some other things i want to dial in before i start beating on it. But definitely plan to track the car in the future,

 

Welcome!
