Thanks Quinn ! I'll let you know if/when i decide to sell them = )

Got a ton of stuff done on the FD this weekend in prep for it's first trackday outting.

Installed a Aeromotive Stealth pump /w a Hyperion Fuel Tank baffle.
Installed a HKS twin power
Fabbed up some ducting for my oil coolers, still need to do the other side and figure out how to do the intercooler
Bought some Federal 595 RS-R tires 255/45/17 all around
Changed the plugs and changed the oil.
Flogged the **** out of the FD at streets while maintaining 92-95 degrees water temp and 20-23 degrees C Air Temps ! then I drove the FD without a single issue ! w00t !

Here are some photos, I normally track the miata, but let my brother take it out.


Only Photo I have of the ducting while building it.

Did you have any problems with your oil creeping up the oil filler tube at Streets? I dont remember if you have a catch can or not but I didnt and had oil creeping up and out of the little nipple at the bottom of the oil filler tube and down the side of my engine block. A makeshift catch can made out of a plastic water bottle and a vacuum hose attached to that nipple fixed my problem

Car is looking good! Dont forget you also had new diff bushings installed

Now that you mention it Juan I didn't check to see if I had any oil coming up the filler tube. I have stainless filler tube replacement I got in a group buy here, but I wasn't planning on installing it until I got my new shortblock in my hot hands.

Diff bushings too ! Almost forgot. Wanna goto Streets Dec 10th with speedtrials ? haha.

Not sure if you have that nipple vented/open like I did but it would have been pretty obvious if you did. The drivers side of my engine was covered in oil I also have one of those filler tube replacements but I havent installed it yet. I've been kinda lazy Sticky tires + right turns is not a very good combo.

If it's the track day I'm thinking of, an old friend of mine is hosting it but I dont think I can make it out. I have a bunch of parts I've been meaning to install on my car but I always set my car aside to work on everyone else's car
