I sold out!
So as you all saw, I parted out my turbo kit.. and 3 days ago sold the Miata to a friend and bought an 00 Mustang GT.
:) overall I am happy, I have always loved GT's and finally found one that I wanted. now I am saving the pennies for a vortech s/c system :) and a full build down the road. give me a year.. this baby will have 550whp :) woah! |

Yuck, now your just "that guy" with the mustang. :)
I have a better build suggestion (see image) |
hahah that's a civic conversion? oh jeez.
|
I think that might be a Sentra, actually...maybe.:eek:
|
:rofl: Wow! I can hear that fartcan from here!
|
woah!! hehe my fart cans sound sweet :)
v8 power + flowmasters = music to my ears |
Thatguy - thinking of doing the same thing here - I see the GTs are just under 10.
|
Why don't you split the difference and put a 5.0L in your miata? Sell outs!!!! j/k ;)
|
I'd love to have a mustang.
A fox body with a built 351W and an 88mm turbo. :D I wouldn't sell a miata for one though. |

DOHC, IRS, double wishbone suspension, 50/50 weight distribution to .....pushrods, solid rear ends, rocker arms.....that's like trading in a fine wine for a bud light. Hey at least your still RWD and have 4 more holes.

My friends Twin Turboed Mustang:

How much is a whipple charger vs vortec? a friend of mine w/ an 01 Procharged SS has a friend w/ a whippled cobra and it stomps 750 GSX-Rs and could probably run a R1 street bike...and its cheaper than most setups. now, given the GT isn't exactly a cobra, but its not that different, so a whipple is worth looking at, its makes some power in the right setup. :D Its also his DD. |

lol :)
ill eventually buy an older miata 1.8... like a 94 just to have the drop top.. :) |
Getting bored with it - stupid CA SMOG has me to take off the Tubo every two years, I have two kids and the Miata is almost like having a bike - its kind of like a solo thing. The roads around here dont inspire to worry about 50/50 weight and suspension set ups :( This is not my daily driver and I have not driven it for about 2 months - it just makes me sad.
Unless I keep it for another 15 years when the kids are independant - but at that time I may as well just buy another one... |
I'm sorry but mustang FTF!
|
Ford owns mazda! thus they make the miata in a wierd way.
|
Good luck and have fun with it! I'd look into procharger first.
