since i am having to daily commute this turd 70 miles one way until i get my daily up and running.... some to do list items.
1. fix power steering. Rack is leaking from inside the boots and from what i can tell, my return fittings i cobbled together. Might need something better to seal it all up with...
2. exhaust needs to exit beyond the bumper. Seem to get a lot of fumes into the car and my chest feels funny.
3. car is slow. like damn. Needs more 13b. or a turbo. or a 13b with a turbo. then a bigger turbo. but probably just an Rx-8 engine.
4. diff pinion seal leaks.
5. driveshaft is too short, but if I ditch the miata engine, then i will likely not want to spend the money to deal with that crap (its always something... i swear)
6. needs pillow ball tops with speherical bearings. The caster i have induced is not doing good things to the stock strut tops rubber. Need to get my hands on a set of FC pillowball tops. Since the Rx2 needs coilovers from an FC... maybe I can get coilovers for that, use the FC tops on the rally car, then acquire tops to use on the Rx2 (which is radically different than the FB/C)
7. tach doesnt work... which is lame.
8. still have wiring i need to wrap up and finish.
