    For real! They arent easy to find at all, this was posted up for sale Saturday night, drove there Monday morning to get it. It was the only V6 6Spd accord within 400 miles. Absolutely insane how hard these are to find and what theyre still worth

    94 M-Edition Miata Build

    Working on the miata has unfortunately been put on hold since the recent spike in corona cases in my area. But before **** hit the fan, I was able to get a couple parts thrown on her last week, the first and most important of which were the coils. I've actually had them sitting in a box for...

    94 M-Edition Miata Build

    Nah, I keep her at a storage unit. But since everyone is home, I don’t have garage space to work on her, and the damn HOA doesn’t allow street parking. Really sucks [emoji25] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Quarantine hasn’t allowed me to work on the Miata unfortunately, but I managed to pick up a cheap set of wheels for her. No more bent and disgusting M edition wheels lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I did! It both inspired me and made me feel a little bad for slacking on posting updates here. I’m in a better place overall now; look out for regular updates!

She got all new suspension, Truhart Sport shocks with new springs to match, rear camber arms to allow for some camber adjustment over the factory ones, new moog endlinks all around...

    94 M-Edition Miata Build

    A lot has happened in the past couple weeks! I recently picked up a MINT set of 97 M Edition seats with tan door cards, as well as black interior carpet. I now have everything I need to restore the interior. As for the engine, the other day I removed the head and was genuinely surprised at the...

    1/31/19: Decided while I have a little spare time, I’d pull the intake manifold off and a few other accessories like the power steering pump and AC compressor. That turned into 3 hours and pulling the engine lol Link to time lapse: View...

    1/23/19: Today marked the start of the tear-down. Had enough time before work to remove the Radiator, intake, cruise control, fuel rail and injectors. Next up is going to be the manifolds followed by the cylinder head itself. She doesn't run terribly Link to her first startup: View...

    94 M-Edition Miata Build

    If anyone reading this saw my previous posts, you may be wondering what happened to the 1990 NA I originally purchased. Long story short, I sold the car after realizing how extensive the rust damage was. The entire floor pan would have had to been replaced, so off she went. Shortly after selling...

    DIY 2014-15 EX radio in your LX

    From the research I’ve done, it seems the LX and EX(and up) have different reverse cameras. You’d have to purchase one of those with the correct harness to get it to work on the display. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I feel like I already know your pain [emoji23]. Worked on the car today and noticed some killer rust spots. This pushed back my plans to swap the transmission by a month or however long it takes to fix it Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Official 'What did you do to your car today?' Thread

    Not really something I did to my car, but I ended up getting my first project car! She’s a 1990 (03/90) with only 84k on the clock. It’s also an automatic which isn’t ideal but a manual swap is on the way! The civic has officially been demoted to strictly daily duty, I don’t plan on modding it...

    DIY 2014-15 EX radio in your LX

    I have NOT tried this, the guy who sent this to me was also doing this on his HRV, same wire harness for the most part, but I feel I should still mention that. Personally, I don’t plan on doing this simply because I never used those buttons to begin with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
