Have this thread yet had a discussion on which gen miata was the best looking. My vote is still with the first. A modern Lotus Elan.

 

I like my NB MSM

I'm sure you can find some decent used wheels on some of the miata forums.

^ Yes, +36, and with 225x45x15's you get still get a nice aggressive stance. They are more than the TRM's, but the price is not too bad compared to many other wheels.

15x8 6ULs are plug and play - that's what I have.

$750 with delivery and a warranty? Is it driveable?

What's going into the motor?

Pics of Miata and mod list.

05 MSM #1317 v2.0 330whp/320wtq:

 

Built MSM motor, E85, BNR upgraded bolt on turbo with EVO3 16G compressor wheel / TD05 turbine wheel, FM Level II Clutch, Hydra 2.7 EMS, Deatschwerks 800cc's, Walbro 255hp, Ebay 27x7x2.5 FMIC, CXRacing Al Radiator, 2.5" catted down pipe, Custom Intake, Autometer Boost Gauge, H&R Race Springs, 15x8 6ULs, Hankook RS3s

you beat an audi R8 in a miata?

 

Yes, but a modified 330whp/320wtq miata, from a roll. No details as no kill posts allowed. But, it was gratifying to say the least. To give you some idea, if you are familiar with the 50-70 and 60-80 time thread - my miata logged a 1.28s 60-80.

Nice to find this thread as I am done with mazda-speed.com. I just had to tell someone - I made some guy in an Audi R8 cry today when out today in my 05 MSM.

The cashier asked the duck how he would like to pay for his chapstick.

The duck replies, "put it on my bill!"

^^ I like the look of the Solstice/Sky too, especially the Solstice coup.

But, I ended up getting a MSM Miata as it was about half the price.

Fusion engine swap next...?

I'm not built, so I don't belong in this thread anymore. Going to go now.

I have a lot of low load knock, most likely something rattling that I could never find. It even happened on E85. I eventually had Infamous1 raise the threshold of the flkc to ignore the knock in the low load areas of concern. I don't know if this would apply to your situation or not though.

^^ and he has a Spec B too.

You wait til Chuck reads that and kills you in your sleep tonight.

 

 

I know, I know, you can't hide from Chuck Norris.

I saw Chuck Norris on TV the other day. He looked a little out of shape.

Low load knock if the bane of the LGT's existence.
