her name is Tara,it's a 79,the outside is pink metallic too.i have another bit of suspension parts getting powder coated for the RX-3SP.i'm getting closer to paint.

Installed full exhaust today. Coming up next is intake.

Giddy as a school girl waiting for ups to show up so I can install a miata short shifter

finally got the old motor out and set it next to its successor :D

Where did you get if from? I've been wanting to do this for awhile now.

What kind of suspension you running on this? I have never seen that brace or cover there on any other FB. Just wondering.

I believe that is all stock,never seen one without them.

Name change?... Gotta say I like this one better. :):icon_tup:

realized i cant stick the new motor in because i didnt buy a clutch yet :/

What is the point of stripping tar and laying down dynamat? Or your not stripping tar?
Putting in some big subs?

Today, boosting to ~12-13, burning gas at an unimaginable rate. Having fun!

I just got this car about a month ago, and the previous owner mentioned of having upgraded the suspension to Racing Beat. This is an SA, so I'm not really sure if there was a slight difference between the SA or the FB. Not sure.

I'm not stripping the tar, everything is going to stay the same for the eception of the additional insulation being added to eliminate rattles and vibration that occurs when driving a 30 year old car. Specially when going over railroad tracks here in Florida we go through a bunch of them everyday.

started deep cleaning the engine bay while the engine is still out. it was kinda nasty, now its just kinda dirty.

i figured it was time to put the spot lite on my SP,it's finally getting what it deserves after having it 16 years.

putting in new koyo radiator and AST.

started removing the emitions junk, good thing I desided to to so I found a crack in the fuel hose from primary to secoundary fuel rail. didn't seem to leak gas before I removed it from the car??

my exhaust ripped off :(

Awesome. Can't wait to see it.:icon_tup:

did the first block sanding on the trunk lid of my SP,roof is almost ready for primer,as soon as get my tax return i will be getting nrs seals,26x8.5x15 slicks,and wheelie bars.

Drove to work, didn't go faster than 45mph's the whole way... :(

Primed the race hood for megabridge's RX-3,the roof of my SP is ready for primer witch i will be doing tomorrow,also primed a spot on the roof of my widebody.

Finished up a on going project for the past month. So glad to be done with that.

bought her some new toys so I can have my way with her wensday, maybe thursday. life is good.

just went and picked up a gallon of paint for my SP,got the RX-3 parts car,it's all finally coming together.:nod:

just put the steering box,and column back together after being powder coated,i will post some pics later.

I just picked up the correct 5th gear selector hub and synchro from Mazda so the tranny should be going together this week. I also mocked up the FC radiator and oil cooler to make sense of the possible cooling issues while street driving this monster.
