No dont Call me ZFLIP I still have the fire
Anyone who hasnet kept track of my old posts I Bought a Newer DD after going through 3 POS cars, I got a 2000 Mazda MX-5 Miata. I knew I was going to mod it at least a little but no big plans as I have money streched tight Enough on the fire. Well 2 days before the second car payment I spun a bearing, warped the crank and bent a rod, Decided on a Full rebuild, new crank, rods, rings, seals and gaskets, engine mounts header, head-job and a few other things were done in the progress. And hell while I was at it I figured Id get the new front bumper paint the headlights and do the 2 tone
Then ya know You gotta lower it on some Tein 2' springs, and well I drove it every day so I might as well tint it and do some grapics cause I manage a tint/grapics shop, and i might as well do a simple fiberglass enclosure with 1-12" and then I already have a full carputer in the sunfire I might as well share that with the miata so the 7" Xenarch touchscreen will be here next week lol. But all that Aside the Boost is DONE on the sunfire, still need to make it look nice, but as far as Running its DONE. I started putting together some of the internal electronics last night, got the brace for the 10.4" touchscreen to mount to the steel dash frame and got the software portion of the touchscreen running. On with a few pics!
In this pic you can see a hint at the USB Nitrous controller we are working on
And My GF posing with the mazda in downtown Savannah:
Ive started printing posters now So I Made on for the GF for Vday(I know im late)
And finnaly a quick Vid of the Mazda I made with the new cam:

Miata looks great. I don't see the two tone, though.
I'm a bitch. Look out. I'm here to start drama.
Please take everything I say seriously.
Thanks guys!
HIN isint untill July 14th in Charlotte NC, I may be showing in the Gila booth with some wild ass tint, dunno for shure yet!
SMC videos May stop, I will still make vids but not club related too much drama BS going on with everyone.
The USB Nitrous controller is an external USB device you just plug in and connect Power, ground, Fuel/Nitrous valve power, Purge valve power, bottle heater and remote bottle opener, RPM input, Throttle pos. Input, A/F input to. Then The system monitors your RPM, Your A/F, and Your throttle Position for you. See you open the program, select Nitrous Engagement system, then a Password conformation box opens up, type in your set password(to prevent track tamper). Then you get a nitrous control screen, the system is designed to work with a touchscreen. From this page you can Purge your nitrous, You can set you max spray time, you can engage and disengage the system, you can monitor your A/F live along with your throttle position and RPM. Once the system is engauged the computer takes over from there and sprays only when safe, if it detects a lean then it will shut it off. if it detects a drop in RPM (below your preset point) it will shut off. It also Logs all nitrous activity for you. Ill have a more in-depth discription when its closer to done. We are also Making a touchscreen controlled air ride controller, thats NOT laggy like the other systems out there. It also works with regular air ride valves rather than the special slow valves that come with digital kits.
But keep en eye out im sure Ill start a GP on both systems when we have them ready for commercial sale!
I will have a video of the nitrous system works when my ZEX Wet DP kit gets here for the mazda!
Theres more on the sunfire comming dont worry!
As for the 2 tone, the windshield frame, mirrors, and mouth of the bumper are all Mettalic black, When I get the custom hardtop done it will also be black
Oh and as for my graphics, they are my design and My first fully done ones, I LOVE them so back off! ha!
Oh okay, you went for a really subtle two tone.
Looking forward to seeing the sunfire.
I'm a bitch. Look out. I'm here to start drama.
Please take everything I say seriously.
That miata looks good. I like it. I personally dont think those graphics look to bad. Its not to much, just a little extra. Sweet
OF COURSE I HAVENT FORGOT ABOUT YOU! I want more progress of the fire! And damn man a new woman!
software sounds impressive, is it open source?... im hoping so
Unfortunately no, the software is not OS, We would let it out but it is specific to our hardware which is all handmade and we do plan to sell so we are copy writing it and licensing it.
As for the girl, yes another the grek chick cheated on me(that b*tch) However I have a Feeling MyMaya is Permanant, she is an Auto Design student and is into modded cars also, just as much as me(which is unbelievable) she is also a model and as I said an HIN girl
She helped me pull the motor on the mazda and I mean wrenching and all
Like I said I got her a few new outfits and if th weather clears up we will be doing another shoot with the Mazda in Savannah this weekend.
dang that sucks... well if you need a beta tester ill be available.
What Nitrous Setup are you running?
Damn man I would never let a chick lay on my car....
Mine or otherwise....
Posing or not....
Dents > You
Totally kidding...but really...Would never let her do that

mmmmmmmmm. Asian......
Wheres good shots of the Sunfire dragging at?
...
Until I see some actual progress in your ride, I've lost COMPLETE interest. Sorry.
zex 82021, 50 wet shot, 99 2200, stock mostly, engine mounts, intake
i wouldnt put me as a beta tester though i just want to know if its possible to embed in my front end.....
Glad to see your still here and wrenching away and didnt end up like Z2FLOP4 ha. Cannot wait to see her finished and painted tho. This and big poppa are the two projects I have my eyes on.
The Mazda is going with a ZEX 82030 DP Wet kit, I am waiting on them to recive my proposal on the mazda for a possible sponcership, if not ill buy i anyway lol.
Unfortunatly its doubtfull you will see the sunfire show worthy this year, I dont ake enough money to finish it, even if i didn have the mazda so im no going to rush it, its a project car so im just going to take time and mony and do it right. However the sunfire WILL be driveable his year! I havent even been able to fully feel my boost yet because the front cylinders warped
However Easystreet aggreeed to mak custo front air bagstruts for me to match my framework for a NICE price so ill get that next as far as purchases.
