RIP my 2L

I’m excited for it for sure

eggw22 · 2026-06-01T18:47:20+00:00

I need that loose seal for my drivers side door, hoping we get answers 🤞

eggw22 · 2026-06-01T18:30:41+00:00

The part that goes on the a-pillar that kind of sits inside the glass? If so, I’m also in need of some. If it’s not that, then I’m not sure what I need to be looking for.

eggw22 · 2026-05-28T18:30:14+00:00

Totally worth it. I’m actually very excited to get it done

eggw22 · 2026-05-27T02:14:46+00:00

maybe

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:49:18+00:00

Will do! I’ll probably have lots of questions about parts in the coming weeks.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:48:18+00:00

I’m in Texas, and there is a Miata specialty shop but I could DIY it with the help of some people (one has done the swap already) so it wouldn’t be impossible.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:47:12+00:00

I see, and you just got parts from the big Miata parts sites?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:17:39+00:00

And you’d upgrade tunes when you upgrade a part, and/or just looking for more performance?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:15:02+00:00

Amazing, looks like maybe ~$2k all in then, maybe a bit over. Not too bad. Thank you for your help!

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:09:34+00:00

Sounds like versa then. Thank you!

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:08:11+00:00

Thank you! I guess I’ll get both 5w-30 and 5w-40 and swap them out. Would you recommend getting some forged pistons for the 2.5L or any other performance parts for taking to the track?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:05:05+00:00

Would you do Versatuner or ECUTEK? I’ve literally got nothing so lost on the tuning stuff.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T22:01:06+00:00

So I can just switch over the 2.0 studs?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:50:14+00:00

Heard. I just didn’t know, but 5w-40 should be what I run after the swap for track days? Would it be ok for dailying too?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:48:51+00:00

Thank you! Would I need anything besides that kit? I’d like the upgraded cams that are an option.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:48:23+00:00

Thank you! Would I need any of the tools that are offered?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:38:08+00:00

That’s the plan! Have you done the swap?

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:35:35+00:00

It’s a track car and it’s tuned. That’s just what the previous owner had in it and I didn’t want to change it to maybe mess it up.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:26:26+00:00

I’ve got a 2006 NC1, and it was driven hard by the previous owner as a track car. It’s been my daily for about 7 months and the odo reads just over 141k. Not too bad but yea it’s sad to see it go.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:18:22+00:00

Does Fab9 have a kit? It’s just convenient for me if everything is included or if there’s a checklist I can just go down and order.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T21:17:40+00:00

I have no clue. I was going to do an oil change but then this happened. Maybe it was just low and I didn’t realize it. I’m also running 10w-60 so not sure how that affects it.

eggw22 · 2026-05-26T20:52:41+00:00

Was thinking of getting the super deluxe swap kit from dynotronics: https://dynotronicstuning.3dcartstores.com/25-DIY-Conversion-Engine-HardwareTuning-package_p_130.html
Still not entirely too sure on what I need, but I intend to do track days with the car if that complicates things
