They look very complimetary next to each other. Got the side skirts and wheel center caps painted, the Sentra looks more like a car now. Going to weld some leaks in the exhaust today and hopefully put in the new strut mounts.

I also found out the car has a poly front motor mount and completely trashed front and rear sway bushings and end links. Good news, because it means if I put new bushings and links in there I an ditch the 500+ pound eBay coil overs for some 200/220 pound lowering springs and gain a ton of ride quality without much of a loss in cornering ability.

Also, the fuel pressure regulator on the car is aftermarket and was for some reason not hooked up to vacuum. I hooked it up and the car idled better but lost a significant amount of power. Probably going to just buy a new stock regulator instead of trying to fix somebody else’s ghetto-rigging.

The Nissan right now is faster in a straight line and corners better and gets better fuel economy, but the miata is more fun and will be much more fun when I get the turbo finished.
