Thanks man! Hoping to have some more updates soon but I'm currently on vacation visiting family in Arizona.
I did help my little brother with a 1.6 to 1.8 swap in his Miata. Little bit of custom fab and some wiring. He's got a harbor freight welder so none of the fab was too great haha but here's some pics to keep you guys occupied for a little bit until I get back to my car
When I got there he had the motor out already. We did a little bit to the new motor like resealed the oil pan, changed over some sensors and shit. Made a custom coil bracket. He put solid mounts on it so we'll see how long it takes for him to get tired of them haha
Pretty straight forward swap. He put the plug wires on backwards on the coil so it took us a couple minutes to figure out why it wouldn't start, but we figured it out and it runs beautifully
The motor was super clean, only had 90k on it vs 193k on the shitty tired 1.6. He's really happy with it so I'm glad we could get it done while I'm here. Now it's time to actually relax on my vacation haha. More real updates soon.
