This car should easily be capable of over 250 rwhp. Before I sell the car I am finalizing the calibration, dyno tuning the ignition settings, and I will provide you with the dyno data to do with whatever you like.

pics?

Thanks Scott.
I took pics yesterday. I'll upload them tonight.

if i had money after i paid off my debt i'd be all over this...

Here are pics from yesterday.

whoa, why you selling it?

I've decided to build a dedicated track car that I can afford to lose if I happen to put it into the wall. This car is not something I can afford to strip/cage or ball up into a tire wall. So it has to go in order for me to build a dedicated track rat.

It's essentially ready for someone to take away and race in Miata challenge track days, HPDEs, autocross, whatever you want.

I'll even throw in a custom "your specs" alignment to whatever specs you want as long as they can be physically achieved within the restraints of the current suspension at a given ride height.

if only you wanted a fast in a straight line car, im looking to trade my cobra, built motor, built trans, aluminum drive shaft, 4.10's it just needs a pair of turbos

sweet ride chad. knowing you did all the work in it yourself makes it all the better some lucky sombitch is gonna get a good deal on this imo.

Yeah no straight line cars for me. I prefer acceleration G's when they're out off a corner.

Yeah hopefully I can find the right buyer. The car just wants to be driven. It's very fast and very fun but I want something with a hardtop and a N/A motor.

Damn man...that is one VERY well sorted car...

Hope ya stick 'round these parts and don't up and leave us like MarkP did lol

I won't be going anywhere. There is always the chance I'll end up with another miata, we'll see.

I've always liked your car. When I saw it at the TRSCCA autox on NSS in 08 it gave me the motivation to finish mine.

Wish I had the money to buy it from ya!

It's a good bit different from then. Pretty sure the car didn't even have suspension then. Thank you for the kind words. Wish I could make another autocross.

Also want to make everyone aware I'm willing to negotiate the price. The car deserves to be driven, just needs the right buyer.

Price reduced today. Hopefully getting the car on the dyno tonight.

That sucks. You spent so much time fixing the kinks in that car . good luck

Chad; everything ok with you and the floods?

Chad is in Alabama now I believe, so he should be fine.

Thanks

Auburn is just outside of the storm cell. We didn't get any rain from it. My girlfriend however is so close to being flooded out it isn't funny. She has the drainage creek in her backyard for the entire neighborhood. It was flowing over the banks but it would dissipate just enough that only about an inch accumulated in her basement garage.

Good to know.

Sorry for your girlfriend's home. Hope it doesn't get worse.

And sorry for crapping on your thread :bowdown:

Car is still up for sale. It's getting a Walbro 255 this coming week and a retune. Then I'm putting it back on the dyno.

Sweet ride, wish it was in my budget..

What's your budget?

any underhood pics?

I'll post some later tonight.

Good luck on the sale. I remember when this car was up on ebay before you got it. I almost bid on it and remember when you joined here. Mucho improvement over the cobbled together turbo setup it had when you bought it.

I need another car like I need a hole in my head (which my wife would gladly supply if I bought this).

Frank

We all miss the "John Holmes" EWG setup. :giggle:

That was awesome. I drove it quite a while that way. I hope I never see something similar ever again.

Got the fuel pump in the mail today. Should end up with excellent results.

Really wish I was in a position to buy this car. Im surprised its not gone yet. Its not your run of the mill "look I put a turbo on my car".... car.

any dyno updates? maybe a video? the market for cars is bad now. i just sold my miata t for 5k and it had 220whp.

I hope to have it on the dyno this week. Depends on how work goes though. We're waiting on the new car to get back from the body shop so we can prep it for Limerock. That usually means i'll be working nights/weekends which leaves no miata time.

Last time it was on the dyno it made 240rwhp/238rwtq on a dynapack uncorrected with a horrible tune. The correction factor is about 10% for our dyno, especially with the temperature in the room at the time.

Car is doing great with the new fuel pump. I'm going to be busy/gone for the next month though so I won't have dyno data until after I get back. It's the middle of the race season so I don't have much time for the miata right now, if any at all.

Car is still for sale though. I daily drive it comfortably and wouldn't hesitate to recommend someone else do the same.

I'm including a torsen diff with the sale of the car.

Come and get it.

I'll be out of town for 3-5 weeks in case anyone is interested in viewing the car. I'll have internet and I'll respond to PMs and this thread as quickly as I can while traveling.

I'm back in town now for another week for anyone interested in the car. I'll be available my PM, Email, Phone or in person.

Its covertible buying season, Im sure someone looking for a MSM will jump all over this. Well I would anyways...

Thanks,
Tony

I'm back in town again for another three weeks for anyone interested.

Tony, sorry man I'm not interested in trades right now, I have enough cars.

You guys drive a hard bargain. Down to $9900k with the torsen.

Damn, my '01 cost $10k all stock.

Sell yours and buy mine instead :)

Got any engine bay shots?

PM sent - if we can work on the price I think we might be able to work something out.

If you end up buying it, you'll be a lucky bastard!

Cjernigan's car is really well sorted out. I wish I could've imported it.

Newbie here. Looks like a great price. I just wish I wasn't living in CA :(

It's a really damn good price! I was trying to figure out how much I'd post mine for if I were to sell. I was thinking the 11k-13k range. Then I saw his for sale.

Mine's a 1997 that's not as purty. It's faster, but not as new. I think $9900 is a steal if it's well-sorted.

Nice car. A few grand more than I have, but great car.

Newbie...

Car is still for sale. I've been busy with work and life in general and haven't been actively selling it locally or elsewhere. If anyone is interested let me know and we can work on the details, including price of course.
Need to sell.

Wish I caught up with you this summer. Kind of getting ready for hybernation mode now.

Any engine bay pics? Is the car driven regularly or in storage?

Here are the long awaited engine bay pictures. I drive the car a couple times a month.

What are the dyno results? It has caught my eye.

The car made 242hp and 238 tq on a dynapack dyno. It's now running two more psi but hasn't been back on the dyno since.

This has caught my eye again. I am starting to miss my car since I sold it last year. Car looks great as usual.

I had the Hydra on my car, how hard is the Adaptronic to use? Oh, and how bad to you want to sell it? :)

You have mail posidon!

Car is still up for sale.

Replied to PMs.
Been busy at work, forgot to check the forum lately. Sorry guys.

Car is still up for sale.

Here's hoping that in a few years when I'm in the market for a car exactly like this, I'm able to find this kind of deal. Free bump, awesome car, wish I was in a position to buy it.

Just got the car out of storage, drained the coolant and refilled to make sure it would handle the recent cold weather in Alabama. Put the car back into storage after a drive.

I can no longer update the thread title or original post. Car is still for sale though.
