There's a lot of hidden costs that people don't factor in. "Oh, I bought the Miata for $3000 and I'm going to spend $2000 on a turbo kit..."

Well, folks often forget things like gauges, lines, upgraded clutch, fuel system (injectors and fuel pump at a minimum), tuning, EM, exhaust system, WBO2, upgraded brakes, etc.

Then add in a lot for labor.

Trust me, they already tried screwing me with a

30% APR

**** THEM!

So then my granny told them to take the car and shove it up their *** and we just paid in full with my auto loan.

After taxes and everything, it equals about 4400. Still a pretty sweet deal if you ask me :]



BTW, The chrome on the rims are chipping off lol, they just look good from far away, but more pics soon!

thanks! :]

i just gotta get used to driving a stick again then get comfortable with the car

I was just throwing out made-up numbers based on your earlier posts. I didn't get to page 3 and see that you bought a Miata.

First off, congrats!

I was just trying to say that if you spend $3k-4k on a car, in order to safely get to the 225-250whp range, you probably will spend a lot more than expected. There's always hidden costs. Especially if you buy something used, sometimes there's missing pieces or worn out parts that people forget.

thanks!

i plan on spending alot to get to 250hp safely :]
not too worried about that lol

Your going to wreck it within 6 months. I'm calling it now based on your last few posts.

Dibs on the Bilsteins as long as you don't trash them in the process.

It was a test day at the track so i decided to take her.

Midnight mayhem is every other friday night where you just go to have a good time to watch or race.

........ I am having fun exploring the car.
I have already settled down with it, my shift are at normal..... like 3 grand. Don't trip, i am a good driver :]

They all say that. Please prove me wrong. The car looks perfect right now. Mazda did it right in the looks department

Don't trip, I know where I have to limit myself and where I can have fun when there is nobody around and no curbs or nothin.

Them kids just race on the streets like dumbasses.
Not me, I take it to the track.
