what happend to your car dude? "Broken"

 

lol I blew the motor... well technically not the motor, more like a ring. It will be back up in about 2 weeks with a bulletproof 1.6ish.

 

i tend to doubt you did it...but whatever....

 

The VIN is JM1NA3513M0215660. Can you tell if it short or long nose?

 

91's are long nose 1.6's

 

the early 91 miatas were still shortnose I believe

 

The car in this thread is vin #215660
You have nothing to worry about. If you have a 1991 with VIN 209447 or more, you're safe.

 

VERY early 91s only. I've had two 91's that were built in late 90 and both are long nose, and both by a wide margin.

I wouldn't be afraid of a short nose motor though, especially one with such low miles that probably hasn't had the TB touched.
