        Well, the fogs are in, the bent trailing arm's replaced, my leather E-brake boot is nearly finished, and I'm going to wire my fan to a switch. Lots going on, and pics of it all soon. Stay tuned.

          You sure sound like you've been busy.

          Can't wait for the pics.

            im just checking this thread a bit late... what did you do to the valve cover... it looks funky, & you should think about running 1/2 quart of ATF in each oil fill. to get the inside of that beast a bit cleaned up. I can only imagine the rest of the inside.

                The valve cover was *polished* with a wire wheel on a cordless drill. Originaly, I was just gonna get it bare like it is now and then paint it withe the red crinkle paint, like the mazdaspeed miatas have. Then, I got lazy and decided to just leave it bare metal. And yeah, the valvetrain looks nasty. The previous owners abused the crap out it, and it has 185,000 miles. PLUS, I'm looking to either do a BP-T swap/ get a JDM familia from the local import shop.

                      Here are the pics from the last week.

                      Fogs, switches in interior for fan and fogs, and my new 8-ball shifter. Oh, and some painted trim which came out terrible. Plus, the Mazda's hangin' out in the garage, and my bent trailing arm.
