thisisthenewsic Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 if you plan to tear down the miata trans. check into wpc. its a great service. I've read great reviews about guys doing their gear boxes on the nsx, and it makes a night and day difference as far as shift feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisisthenewsic Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 Yeah the exhaust I have on it is practically straight pipe. Lol its more of my track exhaust and I have another exhaust to drive on the streets so I don't get popped by the cops. It's starting to cool down here on cali. Somewhere around 40 degrees at night which isn't cold compared to some places but here its cold enough for me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisisthenewsic Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Got to drive her again yesterday. Oh was it nice. Motor runs great. Put about 30-35 miles on the motor on this road that has a lot of up n downs. Perfect because it let's me feed some load to the motor and also alot of engine braking. I wish I would have got a video but I'll try n have one up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chato Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 the turbo position is what is generally meant by "rotated". although in this case, I guess it also applies to the IM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
