Company (help) is ALWAYS welcome Depending on how long the car takes at paint, there should be some more late nights of work next week. I'll keep you posted, and I'll post last night's pics tonight. Confusing enough?

Miami Lakes. Basically whats left is:

1) I want to lay out the electrical system and connect everything while the car is at paint. I have 3 or 4 wiring harnesses and 2 fuse boxes that need to interconnect and I want to identify any missing pieces.

2) After that's done I want to rip out unnecessary wiring in the harnesses (SRS system, A/C, Lights, Radio, etc).

3) I also need to figure something out for the fuel lines and pump assembly.

Once the car comes back:

1) Front subframe comes off, engine is hung, front brakes changed out, Teins installed, subframe reinstalled.

2) Rear Teins installed

3) Battery and electrical system installed including ECU, brake lights etc.

4) Interior assembly: seats, harnesses, dash, gauges, etc

5) Wheels/mirrors are basically last plus anything else that comes up.


That's just a quick brainstorm, I'm sure I've left stuff out.

Great work so far , I am curious if you will be running the stock gas tank or running a fuel cell? How many gallons?

Keep up the great work.

Stock tank for now (budget reasons) which is 10 gallons. Also, with a fuelcell you can't use all of the stock S2000 fuel system stuff which is a lot simpler to install. Eventually I'll probably change it out if I see any fuel delivery problems.

Alex, I just spoke to a friend of mine (the guy who painted my car) who works at a body shop named Auto Sport, and he told me that they just got a red Mazda Miata with a white engine bay and a roll cage Any chance it's yours??? Small world, isn't it? He is taking a look at your car as I'm writting this post.
