Just wana thank everyone for taking the time to look at my car its a never ending project
there always new uprades every month so keep in touch.
I saw this on craigslist for sale or trade,it wasn't in my best interest but for some reason it caught my eye,I felt that it was calling me the longer i look at it,i knew it had potential and maybe i can re-live my old 455 rhp 93t jspec through this car,so I had to make the hard decision and let my miata goto be able to take possesion of this car.
this is how Deuce looked like at the time i traded my time attack miata with sasco from the forum
excluding the wheels of coures ,
I had to drive all the way to santa rosa to buy this turbo x-brace which is about an hour 1/2with heavy traffic,as soon as i got home i painted it and put-it on. The second day i realized that i had to protect my investments and bought an elite viper alarm.it said on the box(no dares come close)hahaI also removed the intake manifold and cleaned the insides and got rid of those filthy gunk that resticts the flow.
bought the viper security.
a major tune up was done the same night after i got this car such as oil change,fuel filter,tranny flush,bought a new oem airbox,ordered a stock dual exhaust after i found out the exhaust that it came with had a leak,replace valve cover gasket the old one was cracked ,re checked timming,took off the unknown generic intake with a subaru intake elbow ,cleaned the interior and the top engine bay got rid of all the gunk ordered some 4-1 ebay headers,tighted a few loose bolts everywhere and put bolts on parts that was missing,took of the fake sparco steering wheel and put on a stock one with out airbags,painted the valve covers ,the day after i spent 150bucks for a lifetime alignment at firestone and got it aligned back to specs,its funny how i bought this car i met the guy in the morning to look at it and had agreed to take the car as soon as he gets it smog,as soon as i left i went to the dealership and started buying oem parts for it.The same night i called him up and said(fuck it il take it as is).got the car started workin on it.
This is how the headers lookes like before the installation.

it has allot of orange peel and some soft spots and a little bit of runs but not to worry it will all goo away after the wetsanding part,And after that i will be doing the buffing part.
