        Thanks guys!

        Engine swap is not my number one priority, but I'm planning on using Volvo's 2.5l 20 valve 170hp straight five if any. They have the best engine sound exept for some v8's

          I'm don't have much knowledge about weitec but i have it under my car.
          It gets pretty low and isn't to bumpy it sits under there for 2 years now i think and it still looks like new.
          I believe it's founded by KW as well.

          Btw nice miata.

            Weitec is the cheaper brand of KW. They are okay and rasonable priced.
            But in my opinion those E30 meshies do absolutely no justice to the car. They just dont match the car as it is at the moment.

              Thanks. I'm on the look for new wheels, but funding is a little problem at the moment. I don't like the look on the oem Mazda wheels, so that's why I'm using the Bmw wheels. Wondering about losing the center pieces, but I've not made up my mind yet.

              Thanks for input guys!

              The reason I'm looking at Weitec is because they are the only approved coilover brand that doesn't cost a fortune..

                Fitted one of the Torsen t2 locker diffs today. A lot better than the original open one, but not as good as the welded one for sliding around.

                And I've been to three track days the last months, and the car works awesome. I've not touched a single bolt on the whole car! Yay.




                Some guy on facebook took a picture. Thank you!

                  with the bounciness, are you sure the springs arent upside down? im not taking you for stupid. I just know that many aftermarket springs come with the badge on the spring upside down. My uncle, master tech of 25+ years, even put in my brothers lowering springs upside down the first time around.

                    Haha, thanks.

                    No, they are the right way. The bounciness got a little better when they got some miles.
                    Now they are a dream to drive with.

                    Got some TA technix coilovers lying around, but I'll wait with them until spring time.

                        Im liking this quite a bit. I really would love to have a clean miata to build. Looks great so far

                          Thanks man!

                          I've always been like "Nah, Miatas are kinda boring".
                          Then I found some really good looking ones, low and pure awesomeness and then I drove one for the first time, all stock.

                          In Love.

                          I had an Opel Speedster/ Vauxhall Vx220 before my Silvia. A really fun car. Awesome car.
                          But the way it handled at higher speed, was so terrible compared with the Miata.

                            Winter is coming, and it needed some new winter tyres.

                            I'm a little cheapo' but I loved these tyres on the Silvia, so hopefully they work on the Miata.

                            New summerwheels are coming in Janurary/February, so the Bmw wheels steps in as winter wheels.

                                Thanks

                                I really want to mount the coilovers now, but it's winter and stupid

                                It's some kind of syndrome. "Need a low Miata now!" syndrome.
