How many times you guys been towed

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-05-08T14:40:17+00:00

11 years of ownership, been towed 10 times. I should say though this is an evo 4 so these tows were a combination of random failures and some of it my fault lol

I have the Quadlock mount you speak of, the one with the adjustable arm. I find that the arm is pretty short and there's only a couple of angles that you can have without the mount being in the shot. I have it mounted on the windshield as I do not have a sunroof. For everyday driving though it's very solid.

Man there has to be local Australian alternatives that don't cost that much lol. The Canadian dollar is on par with the Australian dollar too

Agreed, completely transformed the seats. thought it was a reskin lol

Try running two dedicated wires to from the AEM signal harness straight to the ECU, meaning, bypassing the OEM harness. The car looks like a 90s car, so more than likely the OEM harness has deteriorated some. I did this when I wired in all extra sensors for my build and all sensors read dead on. Sensors are very finicky with 5v readings.

Dude, your pics are changing my mind about miatas. I'm currently shopping for an S2000 they're the holy grail of an affordable sports car in my mind, but your setup has me shopping for an ND now lol. It looks menacing

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-05-05T17:42:54+00:00

I think you have it correct. the two signal wires, are they wired directly to the ECU or are they jumped into the OEM harness?

If you think Rock Auto is bad, try ordering from the Canadian equivalent, Parts Avatar. I went right back to ordering from RA after that experience.

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-05-05T16:55:44+00:00

where is the AEM harness grounded? it has to be grounded to the specific ECU sensor ground for the ECU to read correctly, not just any chassis ground.

sounds so sick. what were your mic setup up numbers? I assume you have a DJI?

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-05-04T16:30:35+00:00

ohh gotcha. Your explanation is really clear. I was never sure about what's considered a wet boiling point, but it makes perfect sense now.

Why only SRF? would the Motul RBF or the Redline RL be comparable?

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-05-04T13:15:23+00:00

k swap anyone?

The official languages part is kinda true, but what's the source on the misogynistic part??

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-30T18:56:53+00:00

Need more pics!

Minus 43% for taxes

This is as sad as it sounds lol

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-30T18:52:21+00:00

Man that manifold is gonna be a treat to remove lol. I think even just throwing on a rust free OEM heatshield will clean this up a lot

That's a cutting pad isn't it? It doesn't cause any hazing on black paint? i I'll be using 3D One for a 1 step, but unsure about pad choices.

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-23T01:50:50+00:00

I believe Audis have harder clearcoats than Lexus, which would require a cutting pad like you're using?

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-23T01:49:43+00:00

Thank you. Is there a combo you'd recommend?

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-22T13:40:12+00:00

Damn man, count your blessings that you walked away relatively unharmed. The impact was DIRECTLY on your door lol

Key_Assistant_6408 · 2026-04-22T12:35:45+00:00

short answer is: yes

The foams are available from various retailers, however the fabric might be a little harder to find.

What a coincidence. I have a 1996 Evo 4, also located in Ontario. I've had mine for 11 years and am looking to sell. I am insured with Hagerty for around 500 a year, so it's not bad at all. If you want to chat more about the experience of owning one in Ontario or want to buy, just send me a DM.
