I like the General Grabber for old muscle cars, though I think they got rid of the white lettering so that's lame. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

It's so quiet.

I'm too old to ride around sounding like a crazed teen lol and also it would probably embarrass my teen daughter  . Also I haven't calibrated the tach properly because I am more than likely going to install the Dakota Digital Tach converter soon. Now to make a project post  |

I suppose with it being quiet it has more of a sleeper thing going for it. A baffled sport muffler would sound good on it though, can check out YouTube videos of V6 Camry and the like to get an idea. Something with just enough tone, but moderate volume. If that makes and sense.

Today I was in the drivethrough at Crotcho Smell and then the fans kicked on and I could smell coolant, and the needle started to go up a bit.
Switching the temp to hot and reving the engine a bit brought it back down and when I got down the street to my friends shop I found little bubbles coming from a crack around one of the brackets on top. We sealed it with some radiator proxy kit and then my buddy called slO'Reilys and got them to match the Rock auto price on a new radiator -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

SUPER RACE CAR SPEC COILOVERS WITH 19KG SPRING RATES F&R! Anywho, let us know how those turn out. I might be interested in these for the Poopra rather than an off-the-shelf set of coils. At least they're admitted to being built in Taiwan. Not like I know how to read one, but it would be nifty if they provide dyno graphs for their shocks.

Today I recieved my white gauge cluster for my beams. All I need know are engine mounts, water pump gasket and spark plugs. Then I can start.

Replaced the blown rear struts and strut mounts, eliminated the 3rd outer rear red lights on the tails, and an oil change.
Had some water leak into the sunroof the other day while it was raining and the water messed up the sunroof controls. It can still be slid open and closed, but not tilted up or down  Valve seals in the near future as its shooting smoke on a cold start. Unrelated note, I'm getting a Ford 8.8 solid rear axle for the rx7 soon
