Re: noob with a gay *** miata
Looks good! I like Miatas. Great stuff for hella cheap.
You need the N/A RX-7 LSD, axles & driveshaft & a great clutch. The 1.6L rear end has a tendancy to kill itself. Sometimes at 200-220, sometimes not till 250. Then again there are some that have failed 100% stock LoL!

theres a totaled miata sitting in my backyard with the larger 1.8 rear end (same casing, shafts, etc. as the rx-7 but with a gear type lsd and not a clutch pack style) I tried to swap it last summer when my turbo ---- was getting cermic coated however after shattering some sockets, I realized it wasn't coming out without a torch and I threw in the towel since I had a week and a half before I went back to college and Boston=no car.
I'm at the point now where I want to put a stouter rear end in, a stand alone, and ground controls with agx shock and sway, poly bushings, etc but college is a priority right now so I'm gonna wait until i can do it "right".....either that or i'm gonna sell the car and buy a 1.8 (94+) and piece together a turbo kit with some beefier compnents.

the best I can muster as of yet is a 14.4 at 97, however (here come the excuses) it was extrememly humid and literally 96 degrees, the night I went my friends gti and sr20 sentra were running about2-3 tenths slower then when hey ran later that fall.
I'm hoping this year with better fueling and roughly a 100 lbs less weight and some 40 degree cooler air I can break into the 13's on a stock bottom end and ecu which I'll be happy with since stock is around 16.7. I think the new afpr and pump alon will help alot since at the track my car was running out of fuel up top.
