Drift car from MA
#242
Our drift season here is pretty much kaput at the moment as well. It's a massive bummer.
What's your steering setup look like now on the miata?
If I recall correctly from earlier you had the SPL inner/outer tie rods. Do you still have that? Have you moved to a cut steering knuckle or anything yet?

No adapters, had new hubs drilled to 5x114.3, and the R33 wheel hub bore bored out to the larger E36 hub diameter.

I've followed this thread for a while as i have similar plans. I'm curious about cooling. Right now I'm on a stock rad w/o the AC fan due to IC piping. Looking to change the Ic piping and upgrade the cooling all around but am curious what your experience was like with your various setups over the years?
Obviously it would be ideal to have a car that can hot lap all day but $$$ is always a factor due to other priorities.
Keep shredding man!

Took the M3 to a SCCA Track Night in America at Thompson Speedway. Fun change of pace, car needs a few things like a fuel starvation kit, apparently some e36's don't like sustained right handers with half a tank of fuel. Also need a diff breather and a shifter kit with a 2nd gear lock out...$$$$.

Looks like a blast. I've been wanting to track my daily (323 GTX) as well and I've been slowly prepping it to hopefully hit some events next year.
Do you ever take the miata to timeattack/track days? Would love to see it ripping around, I bet with some minor tweaks it would be a real threat on the road course.
