Engine/Drivetrain
Low millage 1.6L engine in great running condition. Transmission replaced with a 1999 5-spd manual about 3 years ago. The differential replaced with a factory LSD unit of the same year span (6”-1.6L) after the turbo kit was installed.

Suspension/Wheels
Overall ride feels great due to the aftermarket additions, i.e. bushings, ball joints, etc are all in good working order. Do need lube the endlinks every once & awhile as they squeak a little if dry.

- Carbon Fiber Hardtop w/Lexan Window
- Spec Miata Hardtop Brackets (solid mount)
- Smoked Front Turn Signal Lenses
- VHT Painted Side markers & Tail lights
- 6000k H4 HID Kit

Interior
Great condition for its year. There is a small hole in the carpet on the driver’s side foot-well from the prior owner not having floor mats. There are now OEM Miata floor mats in the car. No missing panels or cracked parts. Power windows work perfect.
- Sparco Speed Seats
- Momo Tuner Steering Wheel
- NRG Short Hub
- NRG Quick Release
- Generic Titanium Shift Knob

- Panasonic Door Speakers

Additional Information
The following items have been removed from the car: Soft Top, A/ C, Power Steering Pump, Airbag, Washer Bottle & Lines, Charcoal Canister, Stock Radiator Overflow (aftermarket installed). With the turbo installed & the fact we live in Florida under hood temps can get bad, so both fans are on a manual switch (oem wiring is bypassed) so you can run them when needed.

Since I’ve Owned the Car…
- When I purchased the car the wiper motor & wipers arms were removed for the ultimate ‘clean’ look, car was rarely driven in the rain. Wiper motor & wiper arms have been reinstalled, but kept with the wire tuck look.
- Rebuilt leaking front brake calipers
- Rebuilt & improved the rear axles to work better with a car that sits this low.
- Installed a ‘push to start’ button when fixing the bad ignition switch. Added an additional 12v source, as part of this install
- Replaced starter motor.
- Professional alignment (can supply the specs)

Dan Young (CCW) spent over five years building this car investing a lot of work, time, & sweat into it. The car is very well known in the Miata community & anyone who knows Dan or his work will tell you the car is one of the nicest built & that it’s top notch.

Selling the car because the wife had double knee replacement surgery, insurance does not cover all the expenses associated with the surgery & rehabilitation.

I was looking to buy Dan's Miata when it was previously up for sale, but it sold before I had a chance to make an offer, I ended up buying the car below. I wish there was a way I can get out of the M and into the Miata :vash:

Willing to split the wheels?

Hey Tony, I'll trade you my 02 for the M3 :D

SURE ! ! !
$6800 for the wheels and I'll throw the car in for free.:rofl:

Sorry . . . just not willing to seperate the wheels from the car as the car looks so nice with these wheels.

~ Chris

Throw me a realistic offer.

I saw that too, but the mileage I'm stating is what is showing on the odometer. I have not driven it that many miles, so there must be an error with his original post.

~ Chris

The car is still for sale and sitting in my garage. Drove it last Saturday to a Cars & Coffee event and it got a bunch of attention.

~ Chris

Would you consider any trades + a little cash from your end? Mazdaspeed, hardtop, stanced, low miles?

Nice ride! good luck with the sale

Interested
 

Please e-mail me ptendoes123 @ Yahoo.com

1. Do any documentation/receipts come with car?
2. What condition are the tires in? Any rubbing issues? Does it turn ok lock to lock?
3. How much power does it put down? Any dyno graphs?
4. Are engine internals stock? Which headgasket, compression, etc.
5. How is this car tuned? How much boost?

Still Available?
 

is this car still available? It's been up for a while and dont know if it is?

LA PLUMBING

Is this car still availible? i know.. nice first post lol..

YES, THE CAR IS STILL FOR SALE

1) The previous owner did not give me any receipts when I bought the car from him.

2) Tires are in good condition with plenty of life left in them. There are rubbing issues when you go full lock, but that is expected with a car that sits this low. You just have to adjust your driving style.

3) Neither previous owner or I have dyno'd the car, but a conservative guess would be a little north of 150.

4) The engine has stock internals and the engine was replaced by the previous owner. No idea of what head gasket is on there.

5) The car has the factory ECU with an FMU and makes about 4-5 pounds of boost. The previous owner and I have had it this way for a few years with no issues. I planned on adding an aftermarket ecu and get it tuned professionally, but finances did not allow me to do it.

Agreed. I did the same thing (2004 Imola Red M3). LOL

If the car is still for sale please call or txt 630-918-4939. Does the carbon fiber hard top leak? Any rust other than the little bit you showed in your photobucket? Any problems big or small?

Thanks,

The potential new owner is flying in on Thursday to look at it. If the deal falls through I'll let you know.
The carbon fiber hard top does not leak, but the seals around the door windows are not perfect and will let a drop or 2 in when washing the car.
That is the only rust on the car.
I've been repairing the car as soon as any issues come up. Currently there are not any problems.

~ Chris

Not sure what number you are calling, but it must not be mine because I have not received any messages.

The sale is pending and the potential new owner is flying in on Thursday afternoon to look at it. If the deal falls through I'll let everyone know on this forum.

I'll miss the car because it gets a lot of attention no matter where I go.

~ Chris

The car is SOLD ! ! !
It's heading to Chicago over the weekend.
Sad to see her go.
I hope the new owner take great care of her and keeps us updated on any changes he might make to the car. Best of luck to him on the drive up there ! ! !
