  • Just another local miata kid

    Hi, i'm Jackson and this is my miata the day i got him
    Picked it up for a cool $1600,with 110,000 miles. only issue was this (please excuse teh shitty iphone picture) Image




    a few weeks later it looked like this


    then it got some donk wheels and went autocrossing


    after awhile it got low ( r package bilsteins that were revalved, h&r race springs, and isc extended tophats)


    then it gotsome new shoes: 1973 msw by oz mesh


    then it got a rollbar, r package lip, kg works nose emblem and some yellow shit over my turn signal/fog lights


    this is how it sits right now






    I know the car is a little worse for wear, but future plans include fixing the body damage (parts car already acquired) full color change to British racing green, and either a set of compomotive th or bbs rs/rm, raising it to a more functional height, and adding several hella lights onto a light bar on the front.

    Thanks for looking!

      well, a few updates.
      i took of the extended tophats and they made their way to my buddy's turbo 1.6
      raised the car an inch up front and 1 3/4 in the rear.





      then I fixed my rear window (for the third time) and had a girl stand next to it!!





      then at some point i tried to recharge my blinker fluid



      Things still to do:
      Put the front mudflaps on
      Fix dents
      Paint it (insert current color decision here)
      Have aforementioned girl wear less clothing

      I also bought myself a cheap hardtop today, needs a little work, probably going to paint it gloss black and put a suede headliner in

        things i haven't done:
        rear suspension is shit and wont quit squeaking at me
        front mudflaps and vent window still aren't on
        still has body damage, probably not going to be fixed soon.
        things i have done:
        fixed my seatbelts
        removed the stupid ass shift extenders
        detailed the inside

        here is the piece of shit with some snow on it


        also got to tear up the streets in the old mans c2. Brennan, Andrew, and C-Hutch seemed to enjoy their romp down Womack in it
        Scariest vehicle I've ever driven, i swear it is possessed

          So, a plan has been made.
          Here is the parts list of expensive parts with name brands:
          Momo wheel, maybe a quick release for the jdmswagyo
          Trap lip (100mm probably, because i'm a bitch and don't want to scrape it)
          Autokonexion 3 piece duck bill
          Replace quarter panel
          Recover seats in non-peanut butter leather
          Garagestar stripes in silver
          25mm spacers.
          Repaint in red, possibly a darker shade

          If i change my mind again, someone punch me and call me a bitch Jesse Pinkman style

          So updates.... i broke a radiator on the autocross track and my lip off on the Sonic Drive-in curb track

          Basically, the car hasn't been touched. At all. I've just been driving and enjoying it.

          I will show you what i have been doing while neglecting my car though.

          I went for a drive one day, nothing better than random drives to nowhere.





          My dad started to autocross this beast. It definitely needs a new motor. Also, i needed a haircut.
          You can see my younger brothers freshly M20 swapped e30 vert in the back of one of the photos, probably. Also dads maroony/purple e39 daily driver, named barney

                      Uh, its been awhile.
                      It looked like this.


                      Then, thanks to a rav4 slamming on their brakes and me speeding it looked like this.




                      I bought these for it


                      Put the suspension back to stock (for now) (half way done)


                      Now it looks like this

                      Clearly see the reverse rake in this one


                      Yes I know the hood doesn't match this car has parts from at least 5 miatas on it.


                      SO that's that. carkinda went to hell and became a Ain't care fun car. But i am still buying it nice parts.

                      Old momo motorsport wheel I know nothing about,


                      Ground controls (8 k front 6 k rear)


                      And in closing, my current attitude to this car
