Congrats dude! Figure it all out so that we don't have to haha. Had I known there was a way to have AC with a J swap a year ago.......

Thanks man!!! The amount of work involved in this is wild, Sometimes I feel as if I'm wrenching on the car more than driving it. J series is just so much damn fun though.

A/C still blows cold.

First of all, thanks for documenting the build. It is definitely inspiring!

Secondly, a few questions:

1. Have you found any oil pan baffle solutions? Marked Motorsports has something as does Mini Tec but I haven't seen photos of MM and Mini Tec is all custom to accommodate a Miata subframe.
2. Do you have any better photos of the ground clearance with the ASP headers and the starter? Though it looks like ground clearance is minimally compromised with the starter, those headers look like they ate it up.
3. Do you have any photos of the A/C compressor?

​​​​​​​Thanks!

Dude awesome build! i literally went through every page! I also saw your videos on youtube as well! now is it just me or does your car sound more like an NA straight 6 rather than a v6? does it sound that way because of the custom headers? either way, i love love love the sound it gives off!

Thanks man!!!

My guess is its from the unequal length headers that makes it sound the way it does.

i actually did have a custom baffled pan made. ill try and find the picture. its an OEM modified and not at all like that crazy mini tec pan.

the starter is now using an internal solenoid and is tucked up under there no problem at all.
