Looking foward to seeing the car @ the Mitty Mark. Hopefully at some point, we can have Andrew trailer his D prepared Miata to the Mitty. We can babysit it it for you.
so update: busted up a wheel and the front end on a major pot hole in the pru tunnel a few weeks back...got the front end aligned, stock wheels back on (tires are worn out though!) can't find a replacement wheel right now...out of stock? looks like the broken bolt i had on the trubo pipe is the culprit of my leak..3 bolts won't hold up to the major thrashing my car gets...so the turbo's out, pipes are out and waiting on new bolts and gaskets...should be here fri...oh well
i stopped by the shop last night on the way home...the turbo studs are a pain to get out and now we've got to tap the flange for the new studs.....and come to find out, my leak was not because of the one broken stud, it was the turbo pipe gasket that blew out after about 3000 miles! could have avoided all this had i know...oh well, now i'll have all the studs and nuts and she should be good to go tonight.
i did order the new wheel from tire rack, it shipped yesterday...now i just need some new sneakers!
