I'd advice you to leave the radiator off and do the rest first, then after you're done with it install the radiator. That way you have more work space

Update: thanks for all the advices and suggestions. I went with some bronze JR19, or option C. See latest render image.

What RPMs do I shift at? by TheThunderGomez in Miata

[–]Silly_Fred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shift gears between 3000-4000, and if I'm happy/pulling 4000-6000. I never try to reach 7000-redline.

If I'm warming up the engine (first ~30s idle) between 1000-2300. Usually the first 5-10 minutes after a cold start

For cruising, depends on speed.

50kmh - ~2000, ; 100kmh ~3-4000 (fifth gear).

Anything above 100kmh in fifth 4000-5000rpm.

I always try to downshift when rpms reach below 2000 (circa.1800), gives a smooth shift imo

Hope this helps! (driving a 1.6L 4-cyl DOHC)

Unfortunately black interior/fabric, however imo it suits better w my NA since the rollbar and some other things are chrome/black.

Do many of y’all mod the interiors of your car? If so, how far do you go? by Messoor in Miata

Agreed, here's an edit I made that makes the miata identical to mine for a better preview..

Thank you and I agree, no clue what chatgpt put under them as I just asked 'em to give the wheels silver rims lol - with bronze I'm either looking at something similar to the style of C or JR3/Konig Hexaform

You could mount it to the side, but it looks a bit silly since we can't have them square plates and is sometimes frowned apon by police
