What up bronies
I haven't been here in a while. Life, kids, stuff. I still have the 10AE-T, but don't get to use it much between family and getting into W2W racing. I have acquired many turbos and 2 cats. I'm DD'ing a mazdaspeed3 for various reasons, like my kid's carseat doesn't fit in the Miata with the top up.
Where the OG's at?

A couple things drive me nuts. The auto wipers sweep once every time you key on, so you can't just leave them on. The auto wipers are not tied into the auto headlamps, so you have to turn the lights on if it rains during the day. The instrument backlight dimming is strange, there are 2 dimmers. It really does torque steer a lot.
I thought it might be equally fun to a Euro car but without the surprise electrical problems that come with them. So far, I am happy.

Living in Chicago (the city, not the 'burbs). I actually own a car again (finally). Bone-stock '04 NB with more wear-and-tear on it than Hustler's anus.
I'm occasionally envious of you suburban folk with your big garages...
Braineack is still here, of course. You can typically find him shouting Ayn Rand quotes at windmills in the Politics thread.

The w2w car is a BG with the 1.8, protege subframes, MX3 control arms in the front and escort in the back, and the typical stuff that people do to the BG chassis cars. It's tuned out on a MS3Pro PNP, same ECU as 90-93 Miata, with a couple of internal jumpers moved. Car is set up for Endurance racing. I was actually looking for an MX3 when this showed up on craigslist and figured "eh, close enough."

Ben, we're obvs on facebook debating politics.
My neighbor has a miata. I can touch it if I want to. I just threw away my stock midpipe and spare tire this week. Still have the factory jack though.
