So is that rainbow sticker still on there? :P

Re: project gay pride
They are like an LS, IMO. That's all Ari's reminded me of. Nice simple engine that does well with a little boost laid into an easy to work on RWD car.
You got the best of them by my yardstick - 94-95 NA chassis are OBD1 so you don't have to get reamed on emissions inspections, they get the 1.8 liter, and the rearend is good for almost 500 whp. The 90-91.5 1.6's have a short-nose crank that is prone to stripping keyways, and the rear end is a nancy boy.

Re: project gay pride
Yeah, and you didn't read the thread closely:
Like I said, the 1.8 Miata rear ends are good for up to 500.
How the f....? Something ain't right here. That rearend right there has been known to take a hella lot of twist. Even when expected to move a LOT more weight. However, it is also known to blowup, like most any other rearend, with too much shock and funny angles.
