I just got to thinking how different my car is now from when I got her. Arisu was a bone stock 1996 m edition with 83,xxx miles on her and bad rocker rust. She was in solid shape otherwise. Although she had no filter in the air box and a shitty replacement steel exhaust with a stainless steel tip welded on. The soft…
I’m pretty selective when it comes to parts for my roadster. I only select the best I can afford. When I saw this new wheel manufacturer: Renown, my mind went to the now classic 787b. The 4 rotor LeMans monster. Now the Renown that sponsored the 787b was a Japanese clothing manufacturer, but none the less, I felt I…
But...
A big thank you to gmporschenut for putting my dimensions and concept into .stl format so as to be 3D printable. I really appreciate it man. If you’re ever in western North Carolina I will owe you a beer. For the life of me I could not figure it out on my own.
1961. This Chrysler Turboflite concept came about in an era where America was enthralled with space flight. Innovations such as separate retractable high beams, wide groove tires, and a spoiler that doubles as an air resistance brake. Oh and the cockpit can open up a bit... just because they can.
A Porsche driver who decided he had a Subaru for your time. He left the car for a few days. Clearly damaged his underbody, including exhaust. Still though. Looks good in WRX clothing.
Was my first time at a junk yard today, though it wasn’t what I expected. I mean I always envisioned the pull and pay set up, where as this one was sit and wait for someone else to pull the part for you. Either way, I got exactly what I needed!
I do not own the right to this picture. Thank you Volkswagen.com.sg
Sparco Sprint. PCI One Piece Super Low Race Mount.
This. Update: I do think it could work and be cool if done properly, however I don’t plan on doing it. I had my wipers completely off for a few days, as I was painting them and got used to how much sleeker it was without them. So I started looking at lower profile wiper blades and then I stumbled upon a thread with…

Bonus points if you get my reference in the title.
I knew I could take it out, but I guess I am perverse.
My newly running Soviet watch next to my seiko 5 which I believe just has a broken pendulum connection (If thats what it’s called that propels an automatic movement).
It was gorgeous day on the parkway today. Clear skies and many a tunnels to play in.
I ask because, as I have done the majority of the work on my only car myself, there is always the risk that when I start a project that there will be complications. Maybe I get in to do a timing belt only to find the belt I received isn’t the right size and Mazda has to order the new part leaving me without a car…
Have so many plans for Ari, going into this spring season. This time around it was a few things. First things first though, to the a** holes who couldn’t properly replace my heater core hoses: f*** you. Really, I don’t like you. Who works on someone’s car, mangles the copper housing going to the heater core, slaps…
Just noticed it was disconnected and unsure if maybe it was to the now deleted factory alarm (only NA Miata to have one) or maybe to my airbag (which the light has been on for a week or so after going off and on). I literally have no idea, but it’s going through my fire wall and appears to be electrical... Anybody…
“It’s just one last bump before spring,”she said. “Ok,” I thought sarcastically to myself. We all know that’s not gonna happen.
Finally got around to replacing the leaky CAS O-Ring today. Had my friend help me because I had never used a timing light before. Turns out it’s really easy. Got the new Vitton O-ring on with some difficulty, as the CAS is so close to the firewall. Advanced the timing to 14 degrees. It’s supposed to increase (if…
