Very nice car man... I am sure I will be in the same boat on a lot of things. My old 94 had a DOHC with auto tranny and I had no problem for its 150k miles on it. We will see how long this auto last on this one with the bp engine swap. I am sure I will end up manual tranny in the end as well.
At the start of this thread you sound like me... So I hope me car turns into as nice as yours

Update:
Secured my stainless steel door sills with the OEM Mazda MPV tabs, worked great!
Finally got my OEM Eunos full length side skirts installed, had to repair 2-3 broken tabs and repair crack in rest of one them sand and respray since the black paint on them was all cracked and looked drab. Still wish I put more clear coat on them since they are not too shiny but maybe another day. Here she sits in all of her glory:
