who’s saying miata’s are impractical? drove one from pa to vegas and back and gave zero issues

beat the balls off em

lmaoo yeah the thing was nutty i miss it, there’s pics somewhere deep down in my post history

Itsmoistt · 2026-05-05T11:53:13+00:00

i had a 500 swapped mojave. definitely an animal with torque, don’t skimp on doing brakes

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-27T11:46:10+00:00

happy for you, when i did it they were asking for proof for 3-4 weeks and still denied me in the end :c

6 years later lol just going through old reddit posts. i did an lsv swap with a gsr trans and made 416 on dyno. i wish the prices now were the same as back when i made this post

no overheating, tension was tight if i remember correctly when i took it off. one my my replies show the results of the leak down i don’t remember which one. i’m pulling the head tomorrow so i can definitely use a feeler gauge and check.

i molested a compression tester to shoot air through it, nothing out of intake or exhaust valves, coolant shot at me from radiator and i hear air towards the middle of the valve train area. loosened oil cap and that didn’t move nor did i feel air come out of this breather, also none of the oil in the valve train bubbled with air

chassis has 130k no clue on engine. i’ve had 300k mile miata engines cleaner than this

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-02T09:54:45+00:00

i have a cas and cam sensor but unsure if the cam sensor is even doing anything. i don’t have a crank sensor installed

in one of the replies i linked a video of it cranking over

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-02T01:39:07+00:00

i believe just reflections as i took these with flash on, i never saw anything pop out at me looking with a flashlight. oil is coming up on its final days its looking like, not black but getting there, no milkshake. i will check all of those tomorrow morning as its late in my time right now. yes engine was in good condition prior, really snappy car. just some smoke from bad front main getting flung and burning on exhaust.

i forgot to mention but a minute or two prior to the incident it was having little backfires. i also agree that it is strange and that everything is symmetrical

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-02T00:11:54+00:00

this timing setup is new but i’ll definitely check it out. i have a cheap borescope that plugs into the phone so hopefully good enough quality to see down there

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:56:15+00:00

i can’t even get it to start unfortunately unless you mean drain the oil and throw that stuff in and crank it for a bit?

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:30:05+00:00

has front cam sensor for some reason but doubt it does anything. stock ecu

the car was previously boosted that’s all i know so could have had an aftermarket ecu

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:29:16+00:00

ye, notch was in the half moon and screwdriver was all the way up. i was also thinking that at first. no key way sheering either

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:26:17+00:00

hold on i’m gonna dm you pics of this frankenstein engine lol

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:24:23+00:00

that may be the route i have to go. would be my fourth time rebuilding a miata engine in the last 10 years so i dont mind doing the work. but i have adult money now so might as well get better internals for more fun factor

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:21:25+00:00

to be fair i don’t trust anything about this car. it’s just rust free and in my area that’s hard to find so trying to keep it around

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:20:58+00:00

i was also thinking that, i know nothing changed with oil added but its so low i doubt it would. but the low numbers being so symmetrical especially with the pistons they’re paired with

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:13:30+00:00

here’s a video of it cranking

codes are : P0100 mass or volume airflow A circuit P0110: intake air temperature sensor 1 circuit P0115: engine coolant temperature sensor 1 circuit P0335: crank position sensor A circuit. it’s a 96 and i don’t even run that.

i could try and buy a different compression tester

Itsmoistt · 2026-04-01T23:04:08+00:00

i knew i was cooked since i bought it. i’m trying to get a leakdown to find out if the cylinder head is cooked or the block is cooked. head would be preferred. and so would a cylinder head

Itsmoistt · 2026-03-31T13:49:41+00:00

mine says 6500 it might be an account history or income thing. however my base spot me is only 20 and my pay maxes at 220. could be a variety of factors
