Miata #2 The project begins!

[Crazypunkerguy]

I purchased a second NA Miata just before I left for vacation. I have finally gotten around to doing some work and taking some pictures. I am pretty much going to use this as my worklog. Since I have no proper spot to put it. It's a 1993 Miata, it's yellowish currently was originally silver which it will be again! Has no hood, questionable engine, another engine was included but also questionable. I plan to make this my toy as it's WAY cleaner then my red one. Plus it needs paint bad the red one only half needs it. Well on with the pics!



all three of my rides.

Before, it smelled so bad in there.


After, needs a quick coat of undercoating but looking good otherwise!
That's all for now, lots more to come!

Thanks dude, it was in the middle of getting the motor pulled at a shop and was left so they just pushed it outside.

The JDM b6d on the passenger seat with a rebuilt head. The motor in it turns over fine and isn't too bad on the inside. I am going to do a compression/leak down test. See if I can get it running!

I think I am going to stick with the 1.6's, since both cars have them. I am going to do a compression and leak down test on the current engine to see if it's still good. If it is I will pull it and stuff my lightened bp flywheel and exedy kl clutch on it. Then put it back together and drive it. Then slowly collect parts to boost it. As well as paint it and all that other good stuff to make it nice. I see you have a miata as well now!
