So mega bump.

tires mounted:






she sat in the garage for a bit, too much going on in my life =(




Wash, strip polish and wax today.



need more camber/fender pull




Car is running good, i'm still tinkering around with the mega squirt as I changed a setting and now the idle is lumpy/unstable. Other wise the auto tune is working quite nicely

Traction is still limited but I'm happy i'm not loosing thread in third.

and lastly I need to build some kind of heat shield around the down pipe as some serious heat is coming into the cabin off the trans tunnel.

I've always hated tire stretch on anything. But to watch you squeeze that combo under the rears makes me tingle in my fun spots! Had a stock b.r.g miata with wood nardi wheel and shift knob get towed in to the dealership last week.

I think I'm gonna have to go rwd when I'm done playing with the mx3.

Great job, Jeff. Can't wait to see it, bring it to the Eastside.
