I Did the clutch and flywheel install about a month ago and broke them in 750 miles.

Just going to post some pictures i took of everything, also i have a few questions which i"m sure can be answered..

All the work has been done by myself in my garage with my own tools blah blah, id rate this being maybe a 6/10? pretty easy actually...

So, the z ready for her new found lungs



I will most likely put together a DIY for this whenever i get the chance, people shouldn't be discouraged to work on their own cars ( Don't quote me on that )

Front off and out she comes!


Roughed everything on, looks perrttyyyyy



Anndddddd back in with some goodies..






Sorry if its so short and sweet, Just figured i would be here to answer any questions people may have. I enjoy seeing other people's sweat & hard work!

Also dont mind the fenders, I'm in the process of fixing/sanding. About to repaint the entire car !

 

I was ready to flame this post so hard and then you redeemed yourself

Looks like fun times. Looks like you have all the appropriate supporting mods. Good luck to ya, sir. When's the built motor coming?

 

Haha yeah i figured :P, I am going to pick up another block to build on the side, saving for a new house for early 2014. Thanks for the luck! Should be getting it tuned here in austin within the next week or so.

 

I was like, dang another Thread like this lol. That's aweswome U have the space/garage that big to do all that. Would be so fun. In for numbers and the rest of the progress.

 

Questions!!!!

I'm running a vacuum manifold off of the plenum, the front port to the BOV, for the MBC/Wastegates, should i weld in a bung right off the charge pipe below the MAF?
I've heard plently of people running the Greddy kit just off of the plenum after the TB. Just curious of some inpiuts...

 

I lol'd when typing it. The install of everything has been a lot of fun, pulling/ putting the motor in and out by myself was a little tough haha.

 

move the power steering cooler behind the intercooler...

 

I built my block when I had everything out of the car. Much easier than waiting for the stock ish to break but otherwise looking good. Must be nice to have room around your car LOL (building in a residential garage is a PITA).

EDIT:
You have an HR... So you're grenade I mean engine has a little longer to live than I first thought

 

It's a revup, just the hr hood ( looks so much better IMO ).
The z is not my only car so of it goes boom, it'll be sad but not the end of the world.

 

Wow I think you really fooled everyone. And to answer your question about having a bung welded in, that's what I did and I would move your power steering cooler behind the intercooler if it will fit.

 

Thank you for the advice!

 

Lmao, nice title op!

Very nice work too!

 

Pics of home!

 

Nice z, in for results!

 

Lol nice.

 

i thought of raddishes initially actually.. im glad i read the first post before searching for pictures of beets to shun you with.. nice job btw.

 

Hahahha, almost came in here fully loaded :P. Thanks!

Had a little set back over the weekend, insane random hail storm here.. lasted about 20 minuted and did some insanneee damage.. Getting a new roof! and a new miata... Thank god the z was in the shop.

Backyard..



I had no time to get in the miata and move it!

 

Amazing, One day I will eventually upgrade the Z into FI... Being broke sucks pretty bad.

 

 

lmao! ^

In for more results. Z looks good!
