Tore apart the driver door to see why my window has a tough time cranking. I lubed the tracks with white lithioum grease. Opened up the crank regulator and found the cable has a 1-wire fray and a kink in it. Looks like i am replacing that now.

I thought about it but didn't end up doing so
This is what my car looks like right now. The turbocharger compressor oil seal failed & oil got into my intake pipes & engine so Im replacing my turbo with another stock unit & Im cleaning out the intercooler piping & intake manifold. I also replaced my fuel injectors. While I have everything apart Im cleaning & polishing as much as I can to make the engine look good & preform better. If anybody wants a picture of something specific while I have everything apart I can do that. Ill post when everything is going back together. Im going to take a lot of pictures anyway & make a how to for everything when Im finished.
I bought this stock turbo a while back off ebay for $250. I polished the compressor housing up a little.
I replaced my injectors with the denso 321cc 23250-74050 injectors.

I modified my water temperature guage & had to take the instruments panel out of the dash. To get the instrument bezel off you have to put you right hand over the steering wheel & use a glove or rag & put your finger tips under the lip just enough to tug on the bezel a few inches toward the steering wheel & the bezel will pop off. There are 5 clips holding the bezel on the mazdaspeed mx5. Some miatas might have screws at the bottom front part of the bezel.

nice! i wished i lived in NV!
MSMjohn, looks like a lot of fun, FWIW. It's hard to beat working on a clean engine. Furthermore, I can appreciate the manner in which you've laid out the removed parts.
Do you have any info regarding the flow rate of the stock MSM injectors?
As a side note, welcome to the board!
Keep the pics and info coming!

+1 Great to see this thread pick up the pace in recent months...It's always a pleasure to see what you guys are up to with your super sweet Miata / MX-5 Projects...While I really dig the previous & current gens, I can't wait to see what the next gen brings...Word is it will be leaner & even meaner than ever before!
Keep the updates coming! (thumb)

Thx. They are way better than the OEM pop-ups for light output
