  • More throttle bracket testing. I think this is a winner so my buddy will cut it out of 1/8 in plate.

    • Could you integrate an idle valve block off plate and throttle cable bracket? I'm just thinking that the idle valve plate is closer to the throttle cable and might be a simpler design.

      • I thought about that but the screws are small and i didn't want to rip out the threads being there is force applied from the throttle cable. I figured the stock location was best since they give you deep thread booses. However i think i may bring a brace off the iac plate just as a little added reinforcement but i want to see how strong the 1/8 is.

        • Ahh, that makes sense. This car is getting so close. I'm anxious to hear how everthing works.

          • If you used 4 bolts in the delete plate for throttle cable it wouldn't rip it off.

            I'm ultra jealous of your ecu. Would love to add one to my 1jz. You went with the full diy pin kit?

            • Yes my buddy is tackling the wire and requested the plug to make his owner harness. Hes going to isolate cas wiring from the rest to ensure no noise interferance. Aem makes a nice harness but im sure what Matt is doing will be better!

                Very cool project.
                I'm beginning to think a fender brace should be mandatory on any Festiva making any sort of power. Looks like you got a good start on yours.

                • Small update had a plate made for the mill spec plug termination. Extended the clevis for the miata master brake booster install. Now i got to figure out what to do with the brake lines. Charlie suggested possibly using miata porportioning valve since i got the rear disc but i also got a adjustable porportioning valve but the problem is i need to Y the front and rear lines together. Im thinking of installing the Y's where the old porportioning valve is? Got a new hydraulic wire crimper and re did all my battery cables.
