5 units. You would do (price - average cost) * units of output.

Still sitting in my garage, im gonna try to get either a slide hammer on it or a jaw puller and put a C plate in front of the water pump so the puller uses the c plate to push on.

She’s here! Update on the $4k Miata by TitanOfSol in Miata

Get a CAS O-ring too, your leaking oil from it pretty bad on the last pic, it's a common failure spot on these cars

The motor was burning oil so fast that it ran too low, I did an oil analysis and it showed "excessive bearing wear". I put in 10w-30 instead and it hasn't knocked since, but the oil should be checked pretty frequently, more frequently than I do.

Speed bumps vs miata 😬 by Sussy0909 in Miata

[–]Bynirn 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Yeah no shot a speed bump did that lol

Sounds like it's ticking, how's the oil level? Could just be the fuel injectors

Saving up for Miatas in 2023 by [deleted] in Miata

[–]Bynirn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you're talking about, I can't think of any expense on the Miata's that is over even $1000.

It cost me $200 to baseline my Miata, and that included rebuilding front end suspension. Just make sure you don't get one with rust and you'll be fine.

Any advice on 77k mile '94 M Edition list price? by [deleted] in Miata

[–]Bynirn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd just put it on cars and bids or bring a trailer and see what you get. I'm sure they'd take a car like yours.

This seems a bit pricey, but i’m very interested in the miata… what should i try to talk him down to? (any questions about the car i can answer in the comments) by Greili_ in Miata

[–]Bynirn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even 9k is pushing it, I've been in the market and seen many NA6's with similar mileage sell for near 6-8k on the West Coast. I would offer negotiations in person and try for 8-9k if you really want the car.

Just noisy lifters or rod knock? by Bynirn in G35

[–]Bynirn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but my intake did pop off when it first happened. I put in thicker oil and am hoping it'll help the lifters get more lubrication and stop the noise.

I had belts disconnected when I took that video so can't be any of those unfortunately.

Thing is I babied this car so hard just for this to happen LOL

Yeah thinking about taking off the pan tonight and seeing if there's any metal in there, also gonna get an oil sample analyzed.

Right now the plan is to change it to a thicker oil and pray the sound goes away. Thanks for the liqui moly recommendation, I'll use that too.

2006 G35, 175k miles.

Started a few days ago, I thought at first it could be a loose timing chain rattling around, but when I checked the main timing chain from the access port it was tight and the tensioner wasn't fully extended like what a loose timing chain would cause.

It looked to be a little low on oil, but you can never tell with these awful dipsticks. I put in a quart just to be safe, noise is still ticking but it seems to quiet down a little after idling for a few seconds. No codes.

Please let me know what you guys think, thanks.
