Are you going to keep this one yellow? It doesn't look like CYM. Is it?
I'm 99.9% positive that it's not CYM. Not sure just yet what I'm going to do with it. We'll def. get together and get some food when I get home. Maybe you could bring the turbo miata out and have a miata/RX7 get together. Brian, Chad, and whoever else could bring their Miata's out. I was very suprised how fast those turbo Miata's are!!

Sell it to you cheap I'm trying to give David Jerome a run for his money... haha. Yeah, I'm leaning more towards finishing it. May need to send this one your way so I don't have to waste any track time when I get home.

That's pretty much my take on it as well. I generally despise yellow cars. The one exception to that rule is a track car... which I think should be a little flamboyant. If I would of painted it, it wouldn't be yellow... but I'm good with the color

Yeah, that's what I'm leaning towards

I agree completely. The previous owner spent ~$4000 on the cage. It was done right, which was a big selling point for me. Not having to constantly worry about the rotary would be nice... not to mention I was born and raised on 350 chevy's. My dad may have this running and terrorizing the track before I ever get home.... haha. He has always tried to get me to do this conversion in the past whenever I have an engine out of an FD.
