Pretty much everything wanted in a n/a build with a broad power curve is on this car.

Tii center plate and tii s5 housings.
RA classic apex seals and solid corner.

Currently installing new ecu setup, upgrading from a old haltech f7b fuel only with msd 6al-2.
Raced a gsr swapped civic 170whp on motor with a 75shot and drag radials.
Dig race: no contest rx7 wins by 5+ cars
Roll race: 40mph neck and neck until 4th and 5th (4.77 lol) pulled 2 car lengths.
Guessing from this I had to be extremely close to breaking 200whp or more.
Enough chatting. Picture time.
















5th-reverse lockout

 

Nice build! Very curious as to what power it's making. I have a very similar build, and soon to be going MS3. Kinda wish i had a 1st gen now though. Anyways, looking forward to hearing more.

 

this looks like great stuff. i really dig it! i don't get what the rigged shifter is all about, but everything else i understand fully. kudos!

the S4 unit bolts right in? if so, i never knew that.

 

Shifter base is a 5th-reverse lockout, so no miss shifts into 5th or in between. Works good on tracks or rough driving conditions. Yes from what I hear n/a fc's miata's and s2000's differental units are the same. All use a 7" style ring gear. Not saying the ring and pinions will swap just the units.
