    Not bad... I'm thinking it's maybe a little more feline, though:

    It reminds me of an old shoe.

    I kind of like the car since it's always out. It's liberating to own a car that's aesthetically rough because you don't worry about birds pooping on it, don't worry about door dings, and generally don't worry about theft. No one on this planet would think it has a set of ASTs, VVT swap, MS2, 6-speed, and 3.63 Torsen. Although I'm probably safe from theft, there's a hidden anti-theft device so I'm fairly certain its going nowhere.

    I would like to get a pair of seats of it. I have the seats out of my BRG but they are from a 1.6 so I can't mount them in the car because of the seat-belt thingy. Anyone have a cheap set of any color seat?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but can't u just get some seat belt thingys from another 1.6 and use your seats? Same as using race seats in a newer miata.

    Yes, got the seat belt thingies tonight.

    John drove and I road tuned, adjusted the VVT table and holy shit this car is strong. I'm impressed and still don't even have the spark table tuned.

    You and Wags should drive it Sunday on the fun run and get some tuning/logging done.

    So I accidentially broke the oil pressure sender connector off when putting the engine in, I paid no mind and said "screw it for now, that bitch is plugged". Well, the plastic in the sender fell out and I pissed-oil through the sender port for about 30 miles and there was only ~2qts left of the 5qt fill left. Luckily I caught it, that engine almost dies of oil starvation. So much for meticulously cleaning under the engine. The good news is I didn't blow-up the engine, lol.

    Dude, after the fine tuning I did on the VVT table last night, this car is making significantly more torque than my track car. It also sounds like an old-school two stage VTEC below 4000rpm.
