Must Sell, need house Down Payment Money - No Trades.

Mark

Oh noes.

Sorry to see it go Mark.

I am considering parting it out... I would make a whole lot more money that way.

Mark

beautiful car.

damn, thats a sick car and great price.

:( shame I can't afford it. that car is capable of 400 whp or more i'm sure with a bigger compressor.

Man this sucks, seems like everyone is either selling off their car or being rear-ended lately.

It's capable of 400 with the compressor it has... Remember the Juice is good for 100 HP easy.

Mark

Shit... Being in the San Antonio area I am really tempted. Damn... I have about that much in my 99 right now and it is not that nice. How about a test drive :giggle:

$12.5k will get you an extended test drive. I will be happy to take people out in it when I get there.

Mark

when are you going to be down? I might take a trip out the BEGi and say howdy.

I arrive in TX on the 27th and leave on the 10th of August.

Mark

Mark,

The car only has 30K miles on it? Wow! What is the "TLC" that the car needs? Will it be tuned and sorted for me, I mean the new owner? Could you email me with additional pictures?

Thanks,
David

Just to clarify, the dyno plot is for the untuned car? Do you have one that shows the final setup?

Sorry to see this car go, mark. One of my favorite NB's.

GL with sale.

if it gets parted out.... I call dibs on the seats, I even have a stock set to replace them with (+cash of course on my end)

Wish I had the coin to just pick this up!

If I knew I could sell the 95 Laguna for a nice price, I would be all over this...

Yes, that was untuned without nitrous. It was also with a smaller 2.5" exhaust but the same turbo. I expect it to make a little more power fully tuned (possibly a lot more power with the E85, since I can really advance the timing with E85.) I also have some alternate camshafts that I could include with the car, if 300+ RWHP is not enough. Seriously, this is an easy 400 RWHP Miata, it made over 250 RWHP at 10 PSI.

I won't have a final dyno until I get out there and can get it dyno'd, still this is one bad ass car that will light the tires up at freeway speeds.

Mark

It's got some chips in the paint and the hardtop is a little faded. It needs a new soft top because there are two small rips in it. It could use the side latches for the hardtop as well since I never got those. Stupid stuff like that.

I would anticipate that the car would be tuned and sorted before it leaves BEGi's doors. The only question is how high of a boost level it will be tuned for and if I will have time to get the nitrous fully sorted. I may leave the nitrous tuning up to the new owner... correct jetting will be installed though.

I can't get much in the way of additional pictures since I am in DC and the car is in TX. The car has not had an easy life but has always been well taken care of.

Mark

I'm sad to see you leave us Mark.

I ain't buying it, but ill surely take you up on the offer :)

$12.5K is an amazing price for this car!
If I was in the market, I'd be taking out a loan on it as I type this.
This car could make over 400whp on pump 93 without much trouble.
Only thing I would ever change on it would be 15x9 6ULs with some serious rubber to put all that power down.
Good luck with the sale Mark, I am sure you will not have difficulty finding buyers, this car will move quick.
Will you be back in the near future?

I think several things were very clear..

1. he didn't want any trades as he's looking for a down payment for a house.

2. YOUR LUCKY TO BE HERE THIS LONG AND WILL MOST LIKELY BE BANNED WITHIN THE NEXT 5 MINUTES

I never said I was leaving, just selling the car... till I get another car... which may or may not be a Miata... Right now the priority is a house, the wife is kinda of firm on having a house, I can't blame her. So the car needs to go... that's why I have my SV1000, consolation for the loss of the Miata.

Mark

Want to trade for a house? The car is probably worth more in this market. :)

Good luck with the sale.

Looks that way doesn't it!!! I'm looking not too far from where you live.

Mark

Very nice setup. I'd be in the market this time next year and would pick this up.

For anyone interested in pictures

Mark

man that nitrous setup is sick. This car makes me wish I was in the market. I bet this thing would be into the 11's with the nitrous if it hooked up.

Hell, it would have been in the 11's at 300 RWHP and the 115 MPH trap speed... I have a set of drag radials in the garage... :)

Mark

PS - Thanks, that's my first port nitrous install. I like how it looks too!

Here is a better pic of it.

https://www.miataturbo.net/gallery/f...taporn.jpg.jpg

wow. so what is the status of the tune?

Untuned right now... hopefully monday we'll be working on that. The nitrous is set for 80 HP.

Mark

Not one offer to buy yet... :( I guess I am gonna have to wait until I get the dyno sheet and sell it on fleabay.

Mark

I know I am waiting to see what the dyno sheet looks like with it tuned. You will probably have more interest in it once that is done.

Keep it for another year, then PM me in the Spring/Summer of '09 :bigtu:

So its in Texas right now? I'm in Texas for the next 6 weeks.

Yep, it's at Corky Bell's shop in Spring Branch. In a few weeks it will likely be in DC.

Mark

and the dyno numbers were?

^ what I'm thinking!

Still a few days off... we have to schedule time there.

Mark

The Car Is DEAD. I am so fucking pissed off at this point that I am about ready to part the fucker out.

Fucked up thing is that it was all ready to begin tuning today and the ECU crapped itself.

Not having a spare TEC-IIIr in my trunk made things somewhat problematic... so the car will likely be disassembled and the parts sold at auction on Egay unless I have a severe change of heart.

Mark, thats a damn shame. The reputation of the entire Chinese knock-off industry was riding on this one car.

In any case, if you part it, I'm sure the vultures will be out shortly... wait, here I am. I'll save you the ebay hassle for something... the complete Torsen swap or tires/wheels would make my summer.

make me an offer.

3.636 torsen type II

205/50/15 falken azenis mounted on the rims pictured.

Mark

oh that sucks. crank trigger? or just dead dead?

No the Crank Trigger is fine... It started right up, I began an ECU update and the damn thing ate itself. Red light on the TEC-IIIr = either no 12v on pin G5 or ECU fried.

Well there's 12.4v on pin G5, I think we all know what the other answer is.

Mark

Granted you don't want to spring for another Tec ecu before you sell the car, but parting seems like a shame. Inexpensive DIY MS setup to get the car running again a possibility?

Anything is possible if you want to buy the car. I thought about putting a MS in it, and honestly it wouldn't take long, but I am really done with it.

I was pissed that this thing has just taken too long to get back on the road and really it's useless just letting it sit in TX. I spent way too much time just to have the car hemorrhaging like it had ebola all week.

Put water in it.... water starts pouring out the back of the block, seems that someone forgot to put back all the bolts (can't blame anyone but me for all this.) Turn the key on and fuel starts spitting from all the fittings that I had not yet tested. It was just one thing after another, fighting with the car. After everything is put back together and I dump $30 bucks of mobil one into it, the car shits the computer. Sitting there, like what now bitch... what about it? So after being repeatedly be mocked by my car, I am at the point where I want to part it out.

I had rolled into town under the impression that I was just gonna roll onto the dyno and get it tuned... but like I said, the car wanted to mock me. The fabricated parts all turned out brilliant thanks to the hard work from the folks at BEGi.

Mark

Should have used a PC pro (J/K man). Sucks you have to part it out after all that nice work! I'd think real hard before tearing it apart though. If I was a baller I'd call dibs on that nitrous and manifold though :)

I think someone just did... They wanted the head and manifold setup.

Here's the deal, if I can part out a good portion of the car then I will part it. However I want to line up some buyers for various parts first so that I don't get stuck with a whole bunch of stuff. There is a lot of interest and I may make a post with pricing later today... I am toying with the idea of megasquirt-II but it doesn't look like it will control 4 coil packs natively. I have a COP setup that I could bolt on it.

Mark

Count me in for the head,BEGI intake manifold, and the wheels also.

I'd possibly be interested in the 6spd, and ACT/Fidanza combo. Other stuff too, but thats just wishing. Nobody wants to waste time with flakers.

Thanks Mark.

again, I call seat dibs dependent on price

Ok, here is what is gonna happen. I have a few people interested in the whole car, obviously that is the way I would prefer to sell the car. If those don't pan out in the very near future I will use this thread and the PM's that I already have to allow those interested parties to claim "dibs" on parts. So I am paying attention and I will offer those people first choice on parts that they have expressed interest in.

Mark

PS - I won't entertain any offers under 10k for the car.

SOLD!!!

$10k

WHO??

who bought the car!?

Probably some lame n00b

Now why would you generalize like that? Is it because you lack the funds to buy the car? Is it jealousy? Noob to the forums?
