From what I read, if you get air in the abs, you are fucked-- just takes excessive bleed attempts to get it free. I got the motive pressure bleeder with the miata cap if you want to use it.
I have the motive bleeder too. I couldn’t get the miata cap to seal right so I ended up using the standard one.
The pedal feel has been mediocre from day 1. I figure some day i’ll get the air out.
Minglor, when u Come in for alignment we can also bleed it.
Word.
I’m sure I’ll try it again before then.
Miata meet soon?
Fixed.
Notice any improvements with the Frog Arms?
LIKES.
im in for a miata meat haha let me know when we can all be gay together!
I should have mine sometime next week. 99 NB with sport package
heck yea. so many dudes have miatas now. orgy time.
Car isn’t drivable yet. Give me a week or 2 to evaluate. From what I read they are very noticible. Not sure if I will notice with the cage as we’ll though since that should stiffen the car quite a bit.
I should have the car driveable this week. I ordered new front lower balljoints, hubs, endlinks, and some other misc things to button the car up. Should get that stuff in this week…Allignment and corner balance after that. Then im up for a sausage fest.
Thanks for the heads up. I’m thinking about building my own set. since the whole front end is off.
I initially ordered rotor’s from napa. The rears (pn 4886129) were the wong bolt pattern (maybe 4x114?) just for the record for anyone looking at NAPA rotors. Had to go to advance instead since NAPA had nothing else.
Rear brakes are done. Ride height is roughed in.
About to give her a bath. Shes filthy.
Find a terrible overpriced hack car washer detailer twit to clean this abomination
How much would you charge me? LOL
850.00 for the wash if paid in cash - using a brass bristled parts cleaning brush, the blood of a unicorn, baby seal lion bonemeal for the shampoo then ‘throw on car bucket method’ rinse with the tears of haters.
851.34 if paid with credit card.
I am booked out like 6 weeks at this point though
Aparently you didnt see that this is a miata. Youre supposed to use ejaculate, rainbows, and limp wrists. Fucking hack.
Nevermind
I took out the power steering and AC last night. The manual steering isnt nearly as bad as I was expecting-- definitely expect to like it.
Almost done mounting the seat-- just need to find some better hardware (I snapped a grade 8 bolt somehow?).
Replace the balljoints and tierod ends with OEM parts (r-edition tierod ends). The boots were cracked in the balljoints. All just preventative maintenance.
Just for my reference for what i need -
nysi
alignment/corner balance(new eccentrics if budget allows)
finish mounting seat
paint cage
finish welding tunnel notch
mount/modify rad fans
new shift boot
gap and install plugs
pyrometer (research)
data acquisition
coolant temp gauge (wire it in)
