We already knew the Cobras will fit. They came out of a Miata.

That thread should be required reading for all new MT.net members. As well as FaeFae's New Rape Victim.

It is legitimately hard to read. I'm actually trying again right now.

If you sort the "Build Threads" section by "Views" its kinda amazing to see what threads are in the top 10. I'm surprised Hustlers thread came in a #9, seeing as it hasn't been updated since 2012.

That's because a lot of the "questions" are spread out through other peoples builds and general discussions throughout the forum and his "answers" are in the thread. It makes you feel like you are going slightly crazy if you try to follow what's going on.

Wow. Mine is 16th.

Maybe it'll go up when I'm done? Kinda cheating though... there have been two wrecks and 3 builds (if you count the S2k) there.

Yeah, crashing twice is cheating, I only crashed once. And didn't even tell my insurance about it.

I think i have a thread for this car on 6 different forums, actually.

It's exhausting.

You guys should be proud, though. Thread is most active here from a replies AND views standpoint.

That's a single resonator setup, thank you very much... and not what I asked for. I'll see what the second resonator will to for it, but I'm fairly certain a real muffler will be in my near future.

I'm going to try and get some DB readings off it when I'm back at Thunderhill on Saturday.

You should come... oh wait. Nevermind.

Concealer is just spreading out his build thread on so many forums so he can eventually sell it for 2x any reasonable asking price to uh... buy an ND.

Needs more crappy chrome accessories though and center channel speakers attached to the back of the center console, first.

Exactly. Once it's internet famous, i can paste a bunch of ***** all over it then ask $20k.

Because Special Edition. With a plethora of tasteful mods. And less than 100k miles.

What's the cheap shorty/stubby antenna everyone likes? I like the Moss shorty raked antenna, but i'm not about that paying $50 for an antenna life.

I sold my power antenna setup to a buddy and i'm getting his non-power stuff in return. I hate huge antennas. Want small one. Will pay $20ish.

Tell me what to buy.

I bought this one:
Amazon.com: The Stubby Antenna for Mazda Miata 1990-1998: Automotive Amazon.com: The Stubby Antenna for Mazda Miata 1990-1998: Automotive

I like it. And has prime shipping.

Not 100% sure it will work with 99-05 but don't see why not.

I will buy that if someone will tell me that it will fit a 99 base model non-power antenna base.

I hear people are just giving them away when they buy their new NDs. I'm sure you can get one in Soul Red to match your hard top.
