This is the season: 1G, 2G and Miata all in storage for the winter,I am now in planning collecting mode! For The 2G I Have acquired an FP mani to replace the cracked tubular, FIC 1450s Inj, Cooling mist Meth kit, Boost Control Solenoid, ECM Tuning Speed Density cable, IAT, 3Bar Map sensor, HKS 264/274 combo, 1G turbo TB, Evo/RVR which I port & TB matched. I have a virgin 2G head, new valves, lifters and L19 head studs so it will be rebuilt and installed along with the rest of the parts in the spring About the only thing I need to get is a Larger Turbo although I have not even pushed the EVO3 past 15PSI on this yet and a Restalled torque, evo beehive springs and retainers and a set of Coilovers. That is all I can think of for now on the 2G, Goal is to run 11.80 or better and make the shoutout 2015 but it is 4500+ round trip and I will be driving it so everything has to work. What does everyone else have planned?

Talon is put away - blew the turbo on the last drive of the year but she's running great otherwise - just need to port the OFH but that won't happen over winter - storage mode for her. Laser - did all the maintenance (fluids, filters, pads & rotors, rustproofing)...just need to do belts and change the thermostat and she should be good to go. Also gotta wash, polish and seal her at some point though with this weather not sure if that'll actually happen Malibu - rented shop space. Disk brake conversion, complete suspension overhaul. Maybe some engine work. Tough living in Detroit in an apartment when all my tools and garage are back home (and most of the cars).

LSD Swap, finish off rockers panels, drive the piss out of it.
I am also aiming for 12s as well, as soon as I get there I will install cams and meth.

Winter: Remove battery from DSM. Spring: Install battery and drive DSM. I'm done modding the DSM, damn platform is getting OOOOOLD! I barely street drive it and am actually considering not insuring it anymore. Might just trailor it to events/tracks for some fun time in the summers

The GSX will soon be canabalized into the Spyder including the JDM Galant knuckles I picked up for the brembos. One Summer fun car as a DSM. I think I can live with that. But as for this winter, seeing as they get down to -40 on the regular out here in SK, I won't be doing much of anything except air in the tires, oil in the engine, and fuel in the tank.
'97 GSX - DD and running strong '99 GSX Spyder - Running strong '99 GS - zzzz.

Alex is your carpet nice enough that it's worth cleaning instead of replacing?

Would you die it? I have seen some people do that and it turned out great, just in case your colour throughout is not consistent.

I'm just going to drive mine. I undercoated it myself, changed out my c/f hood for the rotted steel one which I chalkboard painted for old times sake. Changed my headlights to the shitty stockers. Changed and checked all my fluids, went over everything, it's good to go.
Pump some more new 5.0 mustangs on a 14B until I go for something a little bit larger, then chase down my own personal record and get back into the 11's.
I must say though. AWD is wicked in the snow. I am having far too much fun.
