well i've never owned a crx before. i needed another daily since my S will be in the shop for a while getting assorted stuff done to it. so i was thinking about purchasing another miata (owned before) but decided i didn't want a convertible. so i found a good deal on a rex with plenty of mods. well what i need is advice on where to go. i want to hit 13's in this car and i think it's on it's way already. i know i'm adding a CAI from a 99-01 SI (the battery has been relocated) and replacing the enkei's for some slipstreams. anyone have any ideas as to what i need to do to get there.
here's a current list of mods. i've purchased the vehicle as of today and i'm taking delivery sometime this coming week.

oh the only thing that is wrong with it is the CEL came on for a bad TPS sensor. he's got a new one for me does anyone know what it would cost or if it's easy to put in myself?

 

easy to put in yourself..

nice list of mods, but "Moon valve cover".. is this Mooneyes!!??

 

i think he meant as in they used a moon saw to cut it instead of a frikken laser

cool, i think i'll order a service manual for the engine, that should help.

does anyone know what the potential is for this car right now (a guesstimate?)

 

if it was me before you do anything to the car i would do a complete tune-up on the car, go over everything make sure that if something doesnt look right you ask the guy you bought it from. alot of people cut corners when doing a project for themselves. but goodluck with the project.

 

well thankfully a few of my friends are coming in for christmas and 1 of them did a swap on a 91 not too long ago. i'll get him to look over everything. i'm pretty sure everything is in good shape besides the sensor which i could fix easily. i need to get it on a dyno to tune it though, closest one is like 4-5 hours away. anyone got any suggestions for the car?
