OMG IM STEALING THIS! I remember that day!

I almost forgot. I installed the clear side markers with LEDs from HID Powerhouse.
Had to tweak the tabs on the bulbs so they'd make contact, and the marker light on the passenger side is a pain to get to lock into the top mounting tab. But they work and look good. Thanks for the suggestion @ftc~brz

Installed new tail lights. Spyder2's from @fteightysix

Sweet ride man ! she looks and sounds great !! Keep up the progress. You definitely got every penny's worth out of those track days, awesome !

In preparation for a trackday tomorrow, I've installed new brake pads, changed out the fluid and added speed bleeders to make it easier.


Running Hawk ceramic pads front and rear. Motul 5.1 synthetic brake fluid and Russel Speed Bleeders.

That is awesome. I hope you can find some video with me because I messed up the setup of my GoPro and didn't get any video at all.

So, did a trackday with ExtremeSpeed Track Events on Sunday May 11. Streets of Willow CW.

The was the first trip out with the Vortech. On the first session I managed a 1:32.0. I was pretty happy with that. I was hoping to break 1:30 but the first session was the only one I managed more than 5 laps. the rest of the sessions were full of carnage and black flags. So i decided to take it easy and stayed around 1:35.
I did average about 10mpg on the track...lol.

But the Vortech was awesome, as can be attested by the myriad of 86's and Miata's I passed. Many of whom came by asking WTF...

I do have a little oil blow by, looks like it's coming from the blowoff valve or breather. So that will ne to be rectified.

Here's a random selection of pics from the track day.
