Re: The Miata

Let's see.... Bought a JDM/EUDM Intake manifold. It's has a bigger plenum and eliminates these butterfly valves the USDM. manifolds use for lowend torque. Its also supposed to move the power higher in the RPMs. I can take advantage of this with my Greddy EMU by adjusting my redline a little. Since m...

You need these. They allow the seat to sit the lowest. http://garagestar.com/blog/?product=garage-star-fd3s-rx-7-seat-rails Yeah I think I'll try a set of those. I've seen them on someone's FD on the forums. Maybe those will work. Either way I'm going to swap to the Imolas because I realized that I...

Re: The Miata

Did you put your cams into it? Ithe is really good looking! No. The builder (old crusty dude) was really against that cam (mazdaspeed miata intake cam). He convinced me that the way he degrees the stock intake cam 'will be bitchen'. He described although it has slightly more duration, that it was n...

Re: Winter Tires! I'm a believer!

Yup. Having the right tires for the right situation makes a huge difference ESPECIALLY in the stopping dept. Tires are cheaper than a new car. I had snow on my DD cars van and acura tl and would be able to pull out of some pretty high snow and drive and manuever at posted speed limits with no issues...
