Default Video of friends first time in Turbo Miata.

Quick clip of a buddy of mine in my new weekend toy. The car is only running 10lbs on a tiny RH5B turbo and MK1 ecu. I didn't tighten the camera mount enough so I got a little shake. Needles to say, he was pretty impressed with the little car.

Then my other friend/Rotary Mechanic decides he wants to go for a spin so I say ok, but take it easy.

Yeah Right!! LOL

My car is at my friends house off 103st "Da Hood" till I change all fluids and tune her up. I have my Is300 as daily driver.

I let my mechanic drive my car because I know if something goes wrong with him behind the wheel, he's more than capable of building me a new one and I know he will. The guy helped me build my RX7 every day after getting off work and didn't charge me a dime. And now hes building this 750whp monster.


For now the 10lbs is good enough for me. The car has such an old setup, but runs and Idles sooooo nice even after beating the crap out of it. I want to enjoy it before I start boosting moar and breaking ****.

Luis

^^^^ this.


WTF. Really...he had to rev to 7K and slip out the clutch? No wonder he's a mechanic, not to provide food on the table, but to fix the **** he breaks...


I wish your rear would have blown, I would be laughing so hard right now.

Nothing like hauling *** down a residential street. I'd torch my neighbors car if he drove like that up and down my street. Nice RX-7, lets see what the Miata looks like.

You obviously have not been in Miami. People here take a joy of passing over bumps at high speeds, while arm-baring, and gangster leaning. Also neighboor roads are know for being drags stips. Mad ghetto!!
