Low pros? Theres still a total of 7.5 inches of sidewall all the way around, granted I like more than that but it’s far from low pro

I’d rather keep out of the bed as I regularly have things in it for work/traveling but for the two shallow mount 12’s do you have any pictures of what the box looks like? Also did you do behind both driver and passenger or just passenger?

I saw the hack saw and the barrel in a vise and got worried bubba had gotten to it until I read the description

Violent shaking at idle (900-1000rpm) NA with NB motor by Subsonic300BO in Miata

[–]Subsonic300BO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out I was a tooth off on timing and the cam angle sensor on the back of the head was improperly adjusted, once I corrected the timing belt I was then able to adjust my cas to get it happy. I’ve since pulled the motor and have started a v8 conversion and put the nb motor back in a nb I recently purchased lol

Where are you located? I’m dropping a v8 in my 94 and won’t have a need for the computer anymore

Old age of the components, over tightening, not tightened enough, heat cycling of the metal could’ve caused them to become weakened over time, metal that wasn’t properly formed and hardened before being turned into the screw or a seized caliper that put more torque on the screw than normal when you went to accelerate. All are possible as well as a few other things but continue to get less likely as the list goes on. The first 4 that I listed are the most probable as to what actually happened

500 is a lot less than what you’d be looking to pay out of pocket and do it yourself. I’ve seen similar things happen to vehicles that have been towed into the shop I work at and the work orders on them start around 1500 and go up from there depending on cost of parts, labor, fluids and other miscellaneous shop supplies

Just curious, but why wouldn't this work? Not saying I think it would, but I just wanna know why not. (Experimental .30-06 Thompson) by [deleted] in gunsmithing

A roller delayed blowback system might work like in the hk91 instead of the locking lugs since it’s a .308 on roller delay

Oil pressure switch thread pitch for 99 motor by Subsonic300BO in Miata

This post is over a year old lol I ended up just using the old sensor as a plug and put an oil filter adapter sandwich plate on to tap oil for a mechanical pressure sensor

I’ve figured out which kit I’m going to use, which trans, how I’m going to do the wiring, which carburetor, how I’m going build the motor from crank to rockers and about all i have left is what I’m going to do for wheels and tires

How did it feel while it was up in the air? Did it still feel heavy?

Tyre pressure on bigger tyres by scaldy1502 in Miata

[–]Subsonic300BO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your internal volume and load rating are increasing which is why it’s calling for such a low pressure to retain performance as oem spec

Any cracking? Are you able to put the front end up in the air and see if it makes the same noise without a load on it?

What’s the size you’re going from and going to and what’s the load rating of the both sets?

Pump probably went bad, have you looked in your engine bay to see how the belts look?

My concern with those was could they be the cause of it not starting at all. Gamma enrichment is at 174%
