A lil bit more about my miata

[Nismo]

I was wondering, does anyone know where I can get my headlights shaved so they can look like an FD??? I have seen it done but I'm not sure where to get it done. Also if anyone knows where I can get a widebody kit for it. Thanks for all the help.

WHat do you mean look more like a RX7 doesnt it have pop up headlights

[Nismo]

let me refraise that... The shaved lights, Insted of having them pop-up they are shaved so you can have just plain lights. I've seen it mostly on the RX-7's but it can also be done on miatas.

Here you go man. Here's a link to a book called "The Mazda Miata performance handbook" Check it out.

Here is one for the Miata driving school at Thunderhill Raceway. It starts March 26-28. Registration is still open. Think it costs 350 bucks. If you are close, GO to it. The best addition to your car is skill.

Also here's your performance stuff. Brainstorm in LA. They have headlight conversions and what-not and also alot of stuff for that little warrior of yours. Lightened flywheels, exhaust, brakes, coilover set-ups, turbo kits, supercharger kits, a whole lot of stuff.
I found these three with one search in Google for Miata performance.

You can do it yourself with some lexan, some pop rivets, and a few metal brackets...

If you have something special in mind, I may be able to fab you a widebody kit from Fiberglass...

I know its off topic and has nothing to do with drifting, but why is your name nismo and you drive a miata? Not flaming just wondering. Unless you're that guy I saw one time with the Del Sol with Nismo stickers on it and you're gonna do the same w/ your Miata, then we have a problem.

(Let's see how long pita takes to find this. *snicker*)

Well I have an answer for that my good man. I was planning my miata for the sake of buying a 240. But then I starting thinking about and talking to some people in this forum and kinda got convinced that its a great car. It handles really good even without the power steering, picks-up pretty quick and it looks nice too. The only thing that it need is more juice. But to answer your question currectly... when I came to this forum I had the 240 already in mind. Now I dont know how to change my name without starting a whole new E-mail address and re-registering.

Hey thats cool, I'm not hating, just curious. If I'm not mistaken, GReddy makes a turbo kit for the Miata that makes something like 220ish to the wheels. I might be totally off but I think I've seen that somewhere. Get a clutch type LSD, some coilovers, sways, better bushings coupled with that 200+ you've got a great drifter.

I wanted to know if you guys know of the requirements to go to amauer meets. You know like roll cage or stuff like that.

im goin miata, giving it a bodykit just like the rx7. making it a mini rx7 that eats mustangs. imagine what an owner of a mustang will think when a mere miata crushes em.

[hachiroku-fc3s]

Raging panda: Im fairly certain that the miata greddy turbo kits (if not all or most greddy turbo kits) only raise power by 50%. That is still sub-200hp. Easily tunable to 200+ but Greddy has to worry about CARB and all that BS.

and

Nismo: most sactioned events require convertible to have a four point roll cage. SCCA allows the mad dog roll bar. You will have to check with whoever you intend to be competing with and local tracks.

[Nismo]

yeah but I was thinking of making it a hard top. For Two reasons. #1. I got my radio jacked last week.
#2.Roll Cage.
