Cheers.

Nope.. still have the 8 and the MX5. It was definitely a 'top down' day today though. I was just coming back from a Hamptons drive through. Was nice today.

Click on the links in my sig. My son also has an MX5.

I'm just off Old Town btw.

How's your new turbo doing? Treating you well?

Im not going to be at the Long island meet this week. My car needs a new heart. Yup my motor went Boom. So im not sure if im going to rebuild it, take off my turbo kit and get a new motor from mazda (car is still covered) or do a FD swap.. I gotta make some calls, and talk to pettie racing... If i take of the tubro i still need a few stock parts like oilpan,header,airbox. So my car will be MIA for a bit...I"ll update as more info comes in.

I have:
intake box, tray, tubing
header
cat
stock catback
air pump
injectors
misc other stuff

My turbo kit doesn't use any of those parts and I have most of it just sitting in the hatch of my other car rotting. There is a slight chance one or 2 pieces of something would be down at JPR imports - like my motor mounts - but I'll be down there 9/7 for a bbq so I could pick it up if we can find it.

As for a stock oil pan, I don't know anyone else running a Greddy pan. You could try someone like mazdamaniac who probably has most of 3 engines in his garage. Does Ted us the stock oil pan?
