Very nice work .

[shorestiva]

passenger side done.

[shorestiva]

Abs plastic sheet same as front. No the rear panels are a PITA to do lol.

[Fecomatter]

hey shore, what material are you using for your rear trim panels? would you make me some?

[shorestiva]

Rio rack is in just have to align it. Working on the rear trim panels now.


Spare wheel and tire.


Should hopefully be on road to Madness by noon on Friday if everything goes right.

That adapter may not work on a b6t. I'm pretty sure the b6t throttle body has a different tps orientation than this engine. I haven't looked into microsquirt at all but I'd highly recommend this setup for someone new to MS with a 90+ efi festy. Other than the wideband wiring everything it needs is in the factory harness. And pretty much any b series can be run on the factory wiring.

Ah. I found the adapter of Thingiverse. I'm highly considering doing Microsquirt for the fact that the B6T computer is ultra limited on it's capabilities and the Microsquirt is very reasonably priced.

[shorestiva]

Kia tps with a Sadfab 3d printed adapter. I'll post links when I get to a computer tonight. BP disty but the b3 one will work also.

[chrisofna]

What TPS did you find to work properly? Are you running a stock distributor or the Miata CAS?

[shorestiva]

What was all involved with getting the MS system up and running? Pretty straight forward? Which system did you install?

Added a variable tps and deleted the vaf so I had to add a intake air temp sensor. But I think that was the only changes I had to make to the wiring harness. To me it's straight forward but this is my 3rd or 4th MS setup and I deal with wiring at work all the time. This is a older version of the Stratified generic unit. It's pretty much the same as the one they currently sell though.

Running on megasquirt now.

I just replaced the rear struts all the springs and front struts have been on for over a year now so it really shouldn't settle that much. Delco control arms. I guess they came from different batches so they look different from each other. These bushings fit pretty snug. I've always run the bushings that came in the control arms before so I dunno how they're supposed to fit.

Just signed up for scca track day at summit point Oct 21-22. So I've got a month to sort this thing out.

[ryanprins13]

New struts are in. Took the die grinder and put some small notches in the coilover sleeves to help water and dirt drain out. Probably not necessary but whatever.




New struts modified and painted so they hopefully won't rust.



Swapped my bump stop stack around.



Some goodies from the festiva store showed up so I installed them with some new lcas since one of my ball joints was bad.




New taillight gaskets also.




Started pulling my auto belts.

I see you replaced the lcas and you have 2 different looking ones. What brand(s) are they? And the urethane bushings that go close to the ball joint- were they a snug fit or loose slipping them into the lca? And are they soft like rubber or hard? I bought MAS brand ones and they feel almost like hard abs plastic and are loose when i stick em in the hole. Never had new ones so i dunno what they are supposed to be like, lol.
