Please can you elaborate on "having to do a new export-to" I am also trying to resolve a no spark issue on ms2 Thank you !

Speeduino it. You can fry it 5 times until your bank feels

Why did you go from 2.5 to 3 inch after the flex pipe?

“Good enough for the girls I go with” Best comment ever! Your build is awesome

What is the grey for your subframe? Doing my 2011 Mini JCW now and wanna do something besides gloss black.

A brass tumbler from Franklin Arsenal for $170 will be your best friend. Most of my hardware comes out looking nearly new.

nice job

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m going to be doing the MS3X on a srt4 in my 89 dodge daytona soon

if you rub them lightly with very fine steel wool before oiling you get a nice uniform finish.

i have the same problem on rear suspension

Nice Driving!

Good audio clarity, camera work, and pace.

Making a Spring clip instead of a spiral spring can be installed without removing ghe wastegate

I had to expand the dump too was hitting the flange which was too narrow, was boisting 15psi then 9 when stock is meant to be 6psi pretty is with drill and dies. 😀

How long has this engine lasted?

Nice video, will this work to get impact sockets back to black ?

I think the biggest pain, is that you have to dismantle everything to paint the chassis.

Which Wypall towels are they?

Which Miata would you say is best to do this with?

It's okay to lower the boost without tuning? I just bought an eclipse that runs 28psi. I need to lower it for now because I'm not comfortable with it

Mate.!

I bought a miata block recently with the pistons removed. The guy gave up. He numbered the pistons but didnt remember which way he numbered it. Does mazda number or have something that says which pistion goes where? Would save me a ton on getting it honed and getting new rings.

Thank you so much, as I needed a bit of help finding which parts I needed for my build

gotta port my wastegate but this might help me out a bit

Don't use this video to do your timing belt if you're a newbie. It's a bad video. Its misleading, it's wrong to listen to this guy

This is awesome! I’m close to initial startup of my L28ET 240Z with some protunerz goodies and a maxpeeding rods T3 billet turbo, I’m very skeptical of the wastegate that came on the turbo so I’ve enabled boost cut on my standalone for 11psi. If this mod really does help you are a genius and I owe you a beer 😂

Nice, v nice !

Would it be the same steps for a 1.6?

Thanks man. Obviously the rear could have been turned in the design to allow both nuts to fit. How annoying. I’m about to get cutting 😢

AWESOMENESS brother thank you!!!!

Thank you great videos , do you remember the size of that Honing ball/ thingy for the cylinders? and thank you in advance

all have to get sequenced ..for sure for proper tightening , and thank you Exocet .....

you deserve a million views for such a thorough series on this engine rebuild. Thank you so much for putting in the time and energy to video this and share it. Nice work and hope you're enjoying the Exocet brother

Is this street legal? I wanted something like that, but California is complicated

Thanks for going to all the effort of sharing this. I'm just about to remove the shell and the use of the wooden blocks makes total sense.

My wastegate work in the opposite way, on vacuum.

Hey man, appreciated! I hope you wouldn't face any other unnecessary loss again.

Nice video to watch with my Sunday morning coffee. Hope to see more content soon 👌😎

Ever torque the low torque specification as the lock tite might at as a lube upon installation? If the hight torque is used ya might just be over torquing. most torque specifications are calibrated for dry threads unless noted.

The RTV under the front caps really only needs to be towards the outer edges. It only serves to bridge the gap between the cam seal and the RTV in the corner for the valve cover gasket. If the RTV squeezes out on the actual cam journal where the cam rotates, it can cause damage and further leaks.

Could you do a “What I’d do different if I built it again” video?

Will it work on stainless steel?

Muchas gracias 🙂

In the piston ring install video previous to this one, you note that the groove on the piston rod goes towards the front. Yet, in this video, you are installing the groove towards the back. Which way should it be.

That's awesome dude! Nice drone footage. Did you guys have to use an actual "racing" drone for it to keep up? I can't wait to pick my frame up from Atlanta in a couple months as I am doing a build and will be referencing yours, Bert's and Taylor's excellent build videos and will be trying to document mine the best I can on videos as I go too. Thanks for all of the effort in the vids and I am glad to see your having a lot of fun with it!

Definitely not the right way to coat vehicle parts. Black oxide is a very weak protectant. If you want to do this right use something stronger that will actually protect and last.

I've been back into my Wrench VR game lately so good timing to see a new vid on here. Wrench is a wonderful simulation of the Miata kit-building process, focusing on the Exocet as well as a Catfish. It's great that you have the entire building process documented here, which is a fantastic supplement to the VR experience that is a bit watered down compared to the actual thing. It only simulates mainly suspension, engine, and body panels and omits wiring and line-building. It is beautifully detailed though, with every nut, bolt, and torque spec. Just wondered if you knew this was out there, here's a review of both the desktop and VR version (the latter being highly recommended). Also like to see some vid of Mario Kart if possible.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHiZh4OAib-Df9U

Looks like a great time

Glad to see you still out there running it.
