Currently: reliability and more track time. I'll soon need a new hotside setup as I think my dp has developed a crack, and there are already things I don't care for with the greddy setup.

This summer I will be doing a full rebuild of the car. My 92 is going through the process already. I put it up on blocks, take every part off, clean/paint/lubricate as neccessary. I'm looking at a turbo system in the next year or two. Nothing crazy as i don't race my cars, but just for the experience of it.

A: Goals are pretty much to get it track ready. Last year was my first full year of AutoX every weekend pretty much. Before then I maybe did it once or twice in my old honda. I want to get it out on the track and get plenty of seat time. I'm not completely in a rush though, I've been modding as funds become available. Definitely the next few big things on my list in the next month or so with my incoming tax return are Coilovers and rollbar. I'm not really planning on building the motor at all, I'd like to make usable power though. So after I get my suspension setup figured out I'm planning on running Bell Engineering's Xede piggy back with some 550cc injectors. Then maybe a year or so from now upgrade the little turbo to something like a Garret disco potato or 2560r. Ultimate goal is to have around 260-270 usable hp that's fairly reliable and be a track .

The reason I want to use such a large turbo with injectors that small and a horsepower goal that small, is because I made 225whp at 12 psi with my SR20 turbo, and I feel that at lower boost with a bigger turbo I will make more power due to the amount of CFM's that will flow.
I also want to replace my current "racing beat" springs with Flyin Miata lowering springs.

Vote for me and I promise I'll upload much better photos of my car, maybe even a video or 2.

Thanks Mazduh. I truly appreciate it. I wish a better photo would have been used. Check out my album and you'll see what I mean.
