What have you done to your Miata today?

I enjoy the stock look. The only thing I may ask them to do (and I better do now before it's too late) is spin the intercooler around so that the FM logo is visible.

Today's fun involved pulling the '99 engine in preparation for its '01 replacement.

Hawk HP Plus pads and Powerslot rotors on the MSM yesterday. Great combo so far.

Oh, and I'm totally jealous of your intercooler. Mine doesn't have the FM logo painted on it.
 
Got the rebuilts back on and things are good. No more bottoming out.

Also installed an AWR Engine brace, Curt Hitch for my trailer and hitch mounted Bike Rack.

Waiting on a Dash Hawk to show up
 
started the car up and was greeted with a metallic rattling coming from the engine bay. No idea what that sound is. It seems to be coming from the VC. Gonna pop it after work tomorrow and see if its something simple. (eek2)
 
didnt upgrade the pads, just put the pads back on. its not a squeak, like a thudding. only happens when they're hot and i'm braking hard. It sounds like the pads are catching the slots or something.

and my question remains: what pads are you running?

I don't know the answer to that sir. I though you were getting at the upgraded pads causing the problem. They're the same pads that were on the car when I bought it, and they're probably a pep boys special
