    Part 4 didn't even last 1 month. Lol. I vote to start a new one every month. This one should be called "September's whatever thread". What do you guys think?

      Yea if you're not planing on doing much else to the motor than I'd stick with the exedy clutch. Its what mazda puts in there cars as replacments when servicing a vehicle with a bad clutch. A little resurface on the fly with a new exedy and you should be golden for years. Www.clutchcitycom is a good place to look for clutches as well. If you get a miata clutch just remember that either the release or pilot bearing is different than the pro. I can't remember.

          I can't believe this. They're shuting schools down today and tomorrow around here because they don't want the kids at the bus stop with the heat index. Are we really raising a bunch of pussy kids? Florida has always been as hot,if not hotter, as here and they don't shut the schools down. What about kids in the winter? Are they going to shut them down because of it being to cold?? Lol.

              Then the exedy one is what you want . I really don't need anything more than that but want to go to a bigger stage because I would like to start hitting the track some time in the future. Plus I won't stop upgrading so a better clutch will be needed in the future so might as well do it now.

                    sleep is for pussies. a/c is for pussies. heaters are for pussies.
                    seriously, its been -50 out and I still went to school. at that temp, I spit and it freezes before hitting the snow. I've never had a snow/temp day. 2 ft of snow? shiiit... buses still ran, school still held. -50? ****ers have block heaters, fired right up, get on the bus ya whiners. breeding a bunch of pusses down here in the states...
                    No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

                          i scared the living **** out of my girl last night, i felt bad, and she was pissed. she just doesnt appreciate taking a straight at 110 and then curvey back roads at 80mph leaving a ricer boy acura in the dust . of course after that i slowed back down to the speed limit and he did a ricer flyby and then waved me into a parking lot... so i follwed him in and showed him the car and he about shat himself

                              she apparantly had a friend who died in an accident caused by someone street racing, which i didnt know before hand

                              but i mean, i wasnt really street racing. i was just driving fast and some poor, confused bastard was trying desperately to keep up with me. :D
