See Topic. <3

haha

KA-MF-T

Try Car-part.com thats where I got my transmission for my Jetta…
why what hapend it seemed like it was running fine when I left the track…

WTB: Miata motor with enough TQ’s to do burnout. Cash in hand.

it did a few… :tup:

It use to do mean heaters… :frowning:

Did you have to get it towed home?

5.0 swap

not too difficult iirc

Nope, Limped home.
Still runs, Idles like shit and revs out like shit but runs.
I’m starting to think oil got on to my timing belt… boo.

5.0 nothing, put an ls1 in that mofo! now that’s a fun ride.

Fix timing, more flogging?

bump.

bri bri talk to jj about his slipped timing belt on his miata iirc it was a rather easy fix and that could be the problem

or do you know now for a fact the motor is toast?

Motor is…ok.
Looking for a block to build.
Or a swap out for a better condition motor

Depending on which is left over after after I get the project car running, at the end of June I’ll likely have either a 65k motor out of a '96 or a 75k motor out of a '94 available for sale.

talk to the guy moffitt stores his car with he has many miatas for track and street and may have a spare/used motor

Keep me posted.

Thanks for the replys.

cough LS1 swap

It is such a fucking pain in the ass to do.
Otherwise I would do a 5.0 swap.
But really…Do I feel like blowing 6+ thousand on a miata…
