    Default wanna come wrench?

    i have a pile of parts just sitting in the garage, and now that xmas is over, i can take some time off


    things i have to install:

    new (to me) Torsen diff (with poly bushings)
    new robbins top.
    4-2-1 header(needs new flange welded on).
    "tribute" washer nozzles.
    shifter rehab.
    race seat adjustment.
    brake proportioning valve.


    ...and i'm sure i'm missing something...

    i've got Saturday the 19th, thru the 24th off... I'm gonna play day and night.

    Wanna come out and learn how to do it?... on somebody else's car!

    I will have a heated garage with a beer fridge

    I ordered mine from Town North Mazda. There are several posts on the pointy board (miata.net) where you can get the part number. My phone isnt smart enough to post a linkie.
