I've been browsing all over the place, just waiting for my bonus to come in. Supposed to be this month! I'll be pulling the trigger on something once that happens
The winter to-do list for the miata is getting longer and longer. Overwhelmed a bit
- port match and install new manifold(along with dealing with all the differences from the old manifold. Still unclear as to all that includes after realizing theres a lot difference in sensors and vacuum lines)
- build intake
- depower rack
- remove PS(and maybe ac, still undecided there/I forget if deleteing one means deleting both)
- build an exhaust for track days only
- delete everything in the bay that either is redundant or no longer necessary(no clue on this one)
- seat(getting less and less likely as the other things pile up :rain: )
- harness bar weld in (contingent on seat)
- injectors/pump/lines/regulator/fuel rail (makes sense to do while Im in there now but less likely at this point :rain
- work out the lip & splitter/tray mounting
- Build rear spoiler on the spare trunk
- buy / install MS3(ecu)
Who wants to come over and crack the whip on me when I get lazy and complacent?
There is about 5 EP3's that I'm looking at. The Volvo looks pretty cool, it has a cowboy leather sort of color seats. The rest is just a jumbled mess of cars. Mostly all stuff that wouldn't be bad for a commuter car and I could still mod and not be totally bored with the car after a month
I really considered getting rid of the Jeep for a speed 3 a couple months ago. I still think that would be a fair choice for a daily. I have plenty of friends with trucks.
I really don't do anything with it that requires having to tote around the shitty gas mileage full time.
A large hatched car has just as much interior storage as the jeep. Likely more in some cases(mazda 3).
The only thing is, that it could tow the car but I havent done that once in the ~2 years of owning the jeep. Thats the thing I'd need to look at with a new vehicle. On paper, Im still in the Nissan Frontier camp for their price/capabilities.
Maybe if I bought something cool enough a friend would be happy to trade me a truck for a weekend if/when it becomes necessary.
Realistically, I aint gon do nuthin any time soon. Miata needs to get finished and the Jeep is like a few payments from being payed off and insurance gets cheaper.
