Well, if there's one thing almost all old people are good at, it's how to keep a car in good shape.

wish there was a like button lol.
cant wait to get my wheels on it.. owe my father money.. hes the one that did the down payment because i didnt have the money.
after i finish paying him, im doing the wheels.

[Vanilla Sky]

Does it have a torsen? More often than not, leather cars have an LSD.

[obdriver6]

Looks like the only thing semi bad is the steering wheel! lol ........... Maybe I should sell my accord and buy a miata since everyone else is doing it! nah lol

[2oodoor]

that is one of the better looking color combinations, I actually would be caught sitting in it..lol Id have a problem with bugs on the forehead though.
Id love the Accord with that color and interior ...
nice looking sports car

[2ndGenGuy]

Wow. Reminds me of my old Miata.

Black and tan REALLY is the best combination. :)

[PortugalFocus]

Very nice minus the dildo-style shift knob.

http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d21/DkF-killage/SL730447.jpg

And the steering wheels the put in these Miata's never did them justice.

[AZmike]

Do some research before lowering it. There are some options for the rear shock mounts and bumpstops that you might be interested in. These cars have very little suspension travel even at stock height. Have you checked miata.net yet?

[Convenienze]

havent checked in yet,

YES it has torsen :D big plus.

my shifter bushing went out in my tranny yesterday i replaced the whole shift rod from the JY yesterday. its like new now... no more movement.

also got rid of the dildo... lmao.. its what came with the car, i got the stock one from the rod in the JY.

also here are some teaser pics... with junk tires. they are to big for the car, ill be putting 195 50 15's or 195 45 15's on it. these tires are 195 55 15's... they were on my accord.

looks like a monster truck... lol

[Vanilla Sky]

Go with a 205/50/15. That's Spec Miata size, and it makes the car look pretty stout. It fills the wheel wells out nicely, and the tires are nice and wide.

How do you like the Plasti-dip? Do you have any close-up pics? I want to do that with my Si wheels for my 3gee.

[itzdave]

yea i wouldnt go with a 45 series tires unless ya got GIANT 17s or somethin.

[Convenienze]

ill take some more pics tomorrow, i need to add another coat.. it was about to rain so i stopped at 2 coats. but so far i like it, its really different.

[Convenienze]

i seen this miata in orlando at the v2lab meet. its pretty badass... but the tires are 175/45/15's they dont look right... imo he should run 175/50/15's if he wants to keep the stretched look.

Why is that car sticking its tongue out at me?

Haha I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks tow-hooks look like that.

[Convenienze]

lol
im not a fan of towhooks, but its w/e lol

[Convenienze]

traded the dr20 wheels for some rota boost's

16x7 40mm offset.. im not sure what im going to do with them. they were stripped and sprayed with primer... im going to sand them down and plastidip them i guess, and put them on here.. but not 100% sure

they look like this, but at the moment primer..

update :) i sold my go-ped that ive been trying to get rid of for $280 and bought some new-used racelands for $250 from a local guy. they only have ~2k miles on them and they are the new generation racelands, not the even worse first gen.
i know racelands arent the best. but they will allow me to be slammed and that will work just fine.
im going to buy new sways and end links ect. in the future but these are a start :) putting them in on tuesday and going to get an alignment. will post pics of the slammed NA afterwards.

[Convenienze]

also those rotas were sold a while ago, didnt like them im going to buy diamond steelies eventually. but prolly not untill next tax return next year.

[Convenienze]

forgot to update this, its been low for about a month now.
i need a front lip...

[2ndGenGuy]

They always look soo much better low. Now you need some wider wheels and tires for sure!

[Convenienze]

yea, i wont be able to get new wheels untill next tax return :(

[Convenienze]

havent done an update on this in forever.. but here how it looks currently.

[PortugalFocus]

Looks really slick man. Any interior or engine updates? Those wheels look great.

[2oodoor]

I like that look, not loving the front lip but otherwise very nicely done!

[Convenienze]

the only thing ive done to the interior is stereo system, which has been in it since just after the first photos were taken in this thread.
and mitsubishi eclipse a/c vents.
other than that i like to keep the factory interior.

as far as engine goes, ive not done anything yet. just the standard maint.
im supposed to be picking up a turbo setup from a guy i know, but im not sure yet.

[Convenienze]

heres a small look at the vents.. this picture wasnt taken to show the vents, but you can still pretty much see them.. its to dark at 2am to go take some new pics.

but this pic was intended to show the blockoff plate for my empty din in my panel.
i did not buy a dash kit to install my radio so i designed something myself.

the switched are for my headrest speakers, they are hooked into the ground wires. so that results in no distortion on high volume levels. headrest speakers in a miata are wired in parallel. that means,
left switch = left speaker on each headrest.
right switch = right speaker on each headrest.

they came out one higher than the other just ever so slightly but i free handed the entire plate.. so its not perfect.

[Convenienze]

this is now for sale. i got another 89 coupe. i got a 89 se-i brittany blue green metallic.
ill make a thread shortly after i pick it up on monday.

[ItsaHonda]

I'm glad to see that it's staying in the 3geez forum family and going to someone who knows what they have. It hurts to give up my SE-i especially since I've always wanted one and I'll be hard pressed to find another one like it...but I've just got too much on my plate with the new car, bikes and other obligations. I'll be looking forward to seeing it's progress on here.

[Dr_Snooz]

Cool! Pics!

[Convenienze]

i didnt get my tag transferred yet, so ill be doing that asap and ill get some pics and stuff for a thread soon. i had to leave it in my work parking lot for tonight, ill work out the tag thing tomorrow hopefully. i need to renew my registration before i can transfer it. so it might not be until thursday depending on how much my registration will cost to renew.
