Just an average guy that loves cars. Sharing my journey with this hobby and the things that I learn along the way
Drifting my 400hp Turbo Miata (1st Time)
Never really intended on drifting this car when I built it, thats why I got the S14. But the progress has been slow on that car and I've been dying to try my skill from the sim IRL. My buddy convinced me to sign up for the next OSW drift event so I had to make sure me and the car were up to the task!

MUST HAVE mod for ANY lowered Miata!!!
Переглядів 3,1 тис.2 роки тому
Does your steering wheel jerk you around everytime you pass over a reflector? Do you feel like you're fighting your Miata when you drive it? You've probably got bump steer! In this video we install 5x Racing steering rack spacers (risers) to raise the rack back up and restore that steering geometry, to make my Miata feel like a Miata again! Lowering a Miata greatly changes the steering geometry...

I finished up the last few details and drop the VVT engine into my NA miata. Big turbo, big fuel system, big power.

Installing an oil pump, water pump and oil pan in a 1.8L Miata engine. Had an EXTREMELY close call tightening the oil pickup tube to the pump. Make sure you READ YOUR SPECS CAREFULLY!

In the last video I forgot to order the thrust washer so in this video I install the thrust washer and put the VVT head onto the forged bottom end and get the long block ready for the full assembly.
Recap of my trip to Formula Drift Orlando 2021

A few weeks ago was my first time in a drift car and I was instantly obsessed. Formula Drift came to town and here is the recap of some of the sickest and craziest cars and battles with a couple CRAZY wrecks and cars breaking. Enjoy
Restoration: Making old engine pieces look brand new!!

I wanted my engine to look brand new when I put it back in the miata, so I got some spray paint from autozone and the result is incredible!
Assembling 400hp Miata engine (part 1) + my first time time in a drift car
Переглядів 833 роки тому
I start assembling the forged VVT miata engine, putting the pistons and rods in the block, checking bearing clearances with plastigauge and installing cams and lifters. My first time in a drift car was sick and I can’t get enough. Can’t wait to finish the 240sx so I can get out there and drift with those guys 🤙🏼

Welcome to the Channel! + McDonald's Life Hack

What’s up guys? Welcome to the channel, I’m excited for you to follow along with the build progress with my cars and whatever else we record. I also threw in a little pro-tip for your next trip to Mickey D’s. P.S. Sorry about the vertical orientation on the videos at the end, when I took them I never thought they’d be used for this.
Could one put a one-way valve on the outlet port so that the turbo turns into a bubble pump similar to coffee makers? It would pump as long as the turbo is warm
MX5s are also called Miatas and this doesn't work on them.
How does one go about getting the proper lines for a water cooled turbo? My s257 BorgWarner doesn't come with any water-cooled lines and Borg Warner apparently doesn't help with getting lines for the turbo. I've got an inlet and an outlet on my motor that I can use I just don't know what hoses to use to get the job done.
Hey what did you do for the injectors wiring ? I have a 90 na6 with a bp4w and a speedyefi just like you but how to connect my injectors on the na6 harness ? Thanks by advance
My monkey brain can't brain this concept.
Silicone grease won't melt oiless turbo comp but from superior industrial silicone grease 2000 degrees
Did you remove the coil packs off the bracket?? Any grounding issues or problems
That’s very cool
Thaaaaat's pretty genius!
Blue turbo
Nice job bro big like👍💯
🔥🔥👍💯
Rad bro .. u still on the speedyefi?
Tip for anyone watching this in 2023 if your motor mounts are shot like mine were you can just jack up the motor from the oil pan using a wood block and gain enough clearance instead of swiveling out the ac compressor
I did not know this...wow thanks !!!! nice
your clutch :(
Some of the best drifting I've seen in a LONG TIME!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏 400HP tho come on now🤦🏽♂️ not being a dink but im, older and wiser...and know 100% it's not 400......look at all the cute lil miatas 👍🏽👍🏽
hmu on instagram and ill show you the dyno sheet and straight line pulls and the list of cars ive beaten inn street races, including a C7 corvette, C5 Z06 and a Tesla Model 3? Extended Range (among MANY others) Got the video with the tesla and a pretty shiitty video beating an M5 400 exactly, 380wtq
@@miatafied impressive
@@Joeboost8805 this was my first time ever like actually drifting and completing transitions and im on 205 Ventus V2's (horribly gripless tires) so it would appear much slower bc of that. Even when you watch these 1000hp Pro cars on 315's, if they throw a 265 on there the car becomes just as slow as like a 600hp car
That starting map is insane, my cold start wants to start then just dies then it eventually catches after 1-2 minutes but warm it starts fine.
you need to get a better map then my guy lol
@@QuincyStick I figured it out my iacv was sticking it’s all good now
how did you fuel it? the na has a return and the nb does not. did you pick a fuel rail that has a return or did you get an nb fuel pump?
I am using a M-tuned fuel rail that has ports on either side and a port for a fuel pressure regualtor. I have done swaps with a stock rail i forget the exact way to do it but i know there is info on it out there. But id recommend a nice pretty rail like the Radium one. The return style system is the way to go for sure
When I come home we need to film
Let’s do it!
Looks like a lot of fun. Im still here with my stock VVT lol. I would definitely look into a portable air compressor. I have a Hart Tools one because im invested in their battery system but it is a massive game changer. All the pumps in my area are either far, broken, or just take your money. With the portable one, i can air up and down with no problem.
Haha that’s a good idea! I hadn’t run those wheels and tires in like a year and that gas station was literally the parkinglot next to my first stop but they def took my money. Wawa has free air (what a concept LOL) but I’m not really trynna drive out of my way for that kinda defeats the purpose but I will def get a portable air compressor for when I start doing more track days
@@miatafied Free air, the good ole days lol
Very cool!
Dope bro!
Why did you not show what it looks like on the ground 🙄 every video I’ve watched of people doing this don’t show the results
Hmmm, i thought I did show it or maybe I showed just a picture of what its like stock for reference. The spacers are about an inch thick so imagine it being an inch higher. If you want I could get a pic now for you and send it to you on instagram or something?
smart
I’m a quick one 😉
This is exactly what I needed to know!!
Yo is there anyway you could tell me the part numbers for those pigtails? I'm having trouble determining the correct ones.
Did you figure this out yet?
Fresh cut and shape up homie 💪🏽
A lot better of a video man. Better editing, Better pacing. Keep it up.
I been studying
man that thing is pretty clean underneath. mad jelly
HA that’s because I used my brothers industrial pressure washing truck and a gallon of degreaser a week earlier to clean under there bc I was getting exhaust work done and didn’t want the guy to have to work under the slime mobile
I remember when we were younger we use to put dibs on cars. Now we own those cars lol
Exactly bro! Those were the days ❤️ making our dreams a reality
This is so sick
I didn’t even know that would be altered when you lower your car. Thank you for teaching me something
Yeah it was a new discovery for me in my quest to make this thing handle and drive as good as possible
came to say the same. this is gonna be my next thing I change out after putting on lowering mine
How did u torque the flywheel bolts with the engine in the air? Impact?
I put a long breaker bar on the crank bolt and wedged it onto one of the legs of the engine hoist to keep it from spinning and then torqued each individual bolt. Worked surprisingly well
🤘🏽
At least it wouldnt let you start with the bad timing. Better than blowing a valve stem or something.
Had the joy of riding in this beast. It definitely is slept on til it hits higher rpm’s. You should take it to a drag strip and see what times you’ll make. It would be dope to see some runs
Greetings I ask you could you help me to connect a Speedy EFI
hello brother , you can use the green arrow to export certain important maps if you want and import again btw no need to do it manually this should save you time , nice explanation for starters doe I appreciate it
Either way works but this way is much simpler and faster because all I have to do is: Highlight, hit ctrl+c and then with the other tune open in another window, hit ctrl+v. It literally takes less than 10 seconds. Keep both tunes open, right next to each other. The arrows work too, but i prefer it this way. Plus that's less stuff saved to my laptop
@@miatafied wait wait wait this actually works 😳 that’s one I just knew today lol
@@miatafied Greetings I ask you could you help me to connect a Speedy EFI
Nice to see the videos pumping out!
What a great video. I'm watching it from a different perspective because I know you personally. I'm super-proud and really happy to see you doing something you're passionate about. Love u brother man! Ohhh, and, heyyy Trysten! 😎
I am so F-in scared to see you ever try to drift like that.
Oh just wait it's coming. Ive gotten a lot better in the last year lmao
Good info bro. Thanks a lot
🔥 vid bro
2jz swap!!!
Good job. $226. Merry Christmas .... Round egg. Don't think they have that up here. Lookin' forward to the next installment.
HAHA I think they have it up there. When I lived in NY that’s when I worked at Mcdoanlds. I’m pretty sure they had it, check it out. It’s not like delicious or anything but it’s better than the other eggs they give you
Sick, keep up the vids!
Let’s see a detailed video of your car and the plans for it👀
It’s on the agenda for sure!
Great video. Keep em coming!
