Rolled the bejesus out of the front right guard, then discovered that the spokes don't clear NA8 callipers, so I either have to get the wheels machined or run 5mmish spacers

I bought this

http://www.avoturboworld.com/news/miata_a4_small.pdf

But its the NB kit. I emailed AVO and the said the only difference between the NA8 and NB kits is slight differences in the pipework. I think it uses a GT2860?

I took the guard liner out then bent the tabs over with a rubber mallet, then rolled the guards with the guard roller

hows the turbo going? putting it in yourself or getting boostwork to do it all?

No BOV, FJ20's didnt have em so nor shall I :lol:

Plumb-back if anything


Waiting to rebuild finances atm, I've only been doing one job lately since uni went back and I don't want to blow any more of my savings on the car, so it can wait till I save some more specifically for doing the conversion. Unless anyone wants to donate an ecu or buy my piggyback :lol:

Maybe I should just go with using that thing though, it'd save a lot of time and money I guess
