Tonight I'll be putting on the steering wheel, update when that happens.
One Miata waiting patiently, one getting ready to get a new flywheel/clutch, and another car to drive at the moment...

Edit: Why won't I love the MMR mounts? I had Mazda Comp mounts in my last car and thought stiffer yet would be better.

The BMW is being pulled apart, likely needs a head gasket.
The Miata... has some rust on the bottom. How unexpected, for an Arizona car. Grinding it down and spraying it over with some paint.
My frame rails are pretty much all pwnt, unsure what to do there. Box them in? Cut out and replace? Ignore it?

Progress!
Installing the 1.6 Fidanza flywheel and ACT Extreme + Organic clutch and flywheel, with the six speed looking on...

And with it installed, I have shifting again! It'll take a while to learn that I have six speeds... haven't had that since the NC.![](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/smile.gif)
![](http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/cc351/erinsalvino/IMG_0007.jpg)
And up next...
![](http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/cc351/erinsalvino/IMG_0008.jpg)
FM springs, FCM mounts, bilsteins. That'll be first unless my Megasquirt shows up soon...
Progress makes me a happy panda.

Some more work done lately, more little things...
Like wondering how my front PPF bolt stayed on before I took it off... There's not a nut up top?!?
Setup a battery mount in the stock location:

And rewired the reverse switch (turns out that it doesn't matter which wires you put together):
![](http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/cc351/erinsalvino/IMG_0022.jpg)
Still can't drive the car until I get my Megasquirt, so haven't been rushing...
