I broke a nail.
Ugh, I hate when that happens. Then you have to file the rest to try and even it out.
Or you get it filled and call it a day.
Wouldn't your cousin or someone you know own a nail shop anyways? they could just fill it for you.

Ironically enough, my dad's side of the family all own nail salons.

Everyone loves privileges!
Anywho:
Apparently I like to party. Distributor shaft is cracked. Explains some things...
Then my mechanic was like, "Hey, you have a ****load of oil in your intercooler piping....Hold on....yeah.... your turbo's blown. A lot of shaft play and oil is leaking through the compressor housing. Get a new one or get it rebuilt." Explains some more things....
So um... yeah. that's about where we are right meow with the car. Just need to get him to read me the part number on the turbo so I can order the right rebuild kit and send it off for assembly and/or re-balance.
Ordered poly shifter bushings from Lou at BRD from across the pond. Hopefully that helps with some of the "gumminess" of the shifter. If not, probably time for new shifter cables.

Well there's your problem. The fun part will be cleaning the piping and intercooler.

That's probably down the road when the Supra is "finished" and if I'm able to import in a LHD GT-4.

Actually some aluminum safe degreaser and some boiling hot water would be.
2001 Miata LS 5-speed
the car's toast. it's done. probably only worth about $200 at most now.
I'll give you a deal and give you $250 to take it off your hands just because we kinda almost barely know each other.

E.) All of the above
It'll stay there until it caves in and implodes in on itself. When it does, might drop in a D16 or something and call it a day. Maybe a 22RE cuz those don't die.

You've piqued my interest. I'm listening...

TX2K has come and gone, so not much progress on the car. Talked it over with my friend and for the time being while the turbo is out and getting massaged, we're going to go ahead and redo all of the intercooler piping to clean it up and clock the turbo. Any loose wires will be tracked down, tucked, trimmed, and/or sleeved.
Turbo should be coming out of the car some time this week to be sent off.
Poly shifter bushings came in from across the pond, I've ordered an O2 sensor block-off plate to get rid of the unused O2 sensor that's just chilling on the downpipe looking all ugly, and ordered a purple TiAL QR BOV to replace the outdated gen 1 HKS SSQV in the event I wanna get crazy with the car down the road.
Das about it so far. Hopefully more news later this week.

Did someone say, >>>>purple>>>>?
2001 Miata LS 5-speed
Yup. sure did. Gonna try to sort of mimic my friend's engine bay in his Supra and see how much of that I can utilize and transfer into the Celica's bay.
-Alex {](O_o)[}1993.5 Toyota Supra....with stuff........sorta broken....1998 Toyota Celica....this one, too, has stuff........broken....yeah...definitely broken....
TiAL QR came in today and uh.... That's about it. Pikachu approves of it doe...

*high fives*
I love me some white cheddar and pepper jack Cheez-Its.
2001 Miata LS 5-speed
I've already eaten half of the white cheddar and bought the original today. Mixed in half of the original into the white cheddar and saving that for when I'm done with the original.
Annnddd.... Turbo has been pulled from the motor, so I'm picking that up on Friday to ship out to TurboBay on Monday for some refreshing goodness.
-Alex {](O_o)[}1993.5 Toyota Supra....with stuff........sorta broken....1998 Toyota Celica....this one, too, has stuff........broken....yeah...definitely broken....
Mmmmm white cheddar...
I mean... Mmmm... fresh turbo...
2001 Miata LS 5-speed
white cheddar is good.
but pepper provides that little kick just like a fresh turbo would I suppose.

I haven't tried the pepper jack yet. I'll add that to this concoction box.
-Alex {](O_o)[}1993.5 Toyota Supra....with stuff........sorta broken....1998 Toyota Celica....this one, too, has stuff........broken....yeah...definitely broken....
That looks weird....
Definitely need to clean up and sort through the mess on the right side of the bay and see if I can find a better way to mount the fuse box.
Once I get paid from the flooring job, turbo is heading out this week.
