NEMOC Random BS Thread

Good Morning NEPOCers! If all goes well, Sept 1st I will start Engineers school! Watch out Massachusetts they might actually let me drive trains!!!
 
Haha, not too bad. My legs are a little sore from yesterday's ride. It was a warm one, plus I was still a little hung over from the night before.
 
Here are a few quick pics of the GT-R I was talking about yesterday from my boys at Kaizen Tuning. If you're on Facebook you can view the rest of the cars. ;)

here's the pile of parts for my car:

Bled the brakes today, they were a little spongy. Looks like the pads will need replacing and ordered new ones.

what did you order? I just bought the new StopTech street performance brake pads from Zeckhausen... and a set of Centric premium rotors. Brake job waiting to happen!



In other news, Miata misfired at the autox this weekend (towards the end). Turns wiring harness going to the coils is bad. $600 part to replace the whole damn thing. Waiting on the call back from the dealer to see if I get pity warranty (1.5 months out of warranty). I guess it's a common issue on early 2006 Miatas when hot, the part has been revised at least once. If I can't get the warranty repair, I'm probably gonna try to repair the harness myself with a DMM.

Saw a GTR at the autox yesterday. An instructor went pretty fast in it, but didn't really push it too hard.
 
Yep. They just happen to be attached to a certain rusted out P5 that can be had cheaply...
 
OK, dealer says he can't cover $600 for after warranty assistance. Debating whether to try to repair the harness myself or go to the dealer for a pro repair (probably an hour's labor).
