Oh yeah, and many of them are making less than 200 hp with a lot of time and money invested in their junkyard kits and think they are king $hit. A lot are around 150hp. One guy was posting up a few days ago about his 13.9 run at the drag strip. I didn't even bother to mention that there are people running 13 flat with bolt ons on MSMs. We're supposed to be ashamed DIYing 3-4 seconds off the stock 1/4 mile time? Supposed to be ashamed of adding a mere 50% more hp than stock? I notice he doesn't say HE runs 13 flats, just that others on that forum do. I took a quick look at the dyno and 1/4 mile listing over there. Only 20 members out of nearly 3000 boast over 200hp. The top is 254. The quickest 1/4 mile posted was 13.1 @104mph. The next quickest were all over 13.5 seconds. Ummm. Who's bragging about nothing? They don't even ask for proof of any of these claims to post them up. I'm guessing most of those 20-35K cars have as much or more money in aftermarket accessories as our cheesy little NA/NB's do. Strangely they aren't making any more power or are as quick. I don't hate MSM's. No problem with them at all. Don't care for elitists or Ms. Yndor. I can respect trouble makers who at least choose a side, not wafflers. Miss-n-door likes to stir sheee-at. Is his 1st name Dick? |

Others have followed suit, and me and VagaXt both have fully built blocks (albeit he has a mighty FM block :D).? I've read 90% of that anti-MT thread. I've been here for 2 years. I've been OP on many threads. I've asked plenty of dumb questions. I've contributed plenty of dumb answers. I've never taken the negative crap I've personally or thought it a sign that this board wasn't going to help me. Over the last 6 months crapping on Newbs picked up. That has been talked about here, people have been asked to tone it down and measures have been taken to help the situation. Some of the biggest complaints about this site are caused by the Newbs themselves. They see old members popping off, see no controls regarding language and they figure that's the way things are done. That was a big part of the negativity here. Not the knowledgeable established people but the new a-holes trying to look smart and fit in. Anyway, I don't care either way. I just had some time to kill to chime in on this thread. Like I said I have nothing against MSM's. Newb's like you and meh-syndor coming here, just the stir the pot and not contribute, should go home where you are tolerated and leave this board alone. |

Is his 1st name Dick? 2. No I didn't say I ran a 13 flat. I don't drag race my miata. I have a mustang for that. I have no desire to take a miata to a drag strip. The person I was refering too that ran a 13 flat was at a local track, I saw the run so I didn't need any additional verification. Do I care if for what ever reason you don't believe that...ahhh...no! 3. 200 rwhp is fairly standard for a bolt on MSM, so what, if it's not posted on a message board it doesn't count? 4. Not sure where you get this 20-35K cars from. Brand new MSM sold for 26-27K, and nice used one go for mid teens 5. Not that many bolt ons for MSM's so not a lot of money to spend on them with the exception of a hydra. 6. Elitest? not sure where you get that from. The MSM is my first miata, just bought it cause I like it. I was amazed at the attitude of MSM owners on all miata sights, somewhat elitist, including this one. My MSM is just a damn miata. A fun little car. I think arguing over which miata is better is pretty damn stupid. But that's just me. |
Aaaah. Philip. It was always fun to watch when someone here or another board really pissed him off.

And for the record, don't base that entire site off haverty, if you look around a bit you will find he catches a lot of shit there too. My personal opinion is he probably spends more time there because it's less volitale. I can't see him lasting more than a few days here if he posted regularly.

You guys all need to chill, go take some logs, and give me the data collected in my sticky thread in the DIY discussion forum.

Idolizing VagaXT says wonders about the people that are "looked up to" on that board.
