NY/NJ members...relocation ?'s
Hey so I moving back to siNY after almost 8yrs in Miami...
I know Saml01 is closeby to me (already setup to grab beers), and I know Paul is in NJ (would love to see those 2 crazy beasts) but not sure how far... So anyone else up there?? How's the Miata community, even better performance community up there? I met a bunch of local guys down here in Miami from this forum, and then grew into like 10-15 of us...very cool people We've done crazzy tech days, drank some beers, and done a couple nice meet/cruise days. I wouldn't say we're a "club" of any sorts, just a bunch of Miata fanatics that help each other out an dchill once in a while... Anything like that up in that area?? Mind you I moved away from NY pre-miata...so wasn't aware of any thing related... |
i live 20 min closer to SI than paul
mike riv is in woodbridge, olderguy is in wayne. if you're moving back up here just join miatamob.org its all us NY/NJ locals. |
niiiiiice, gonna check that out
woodbridge is like 15min from where I'll be on SI....,not sure where wayne is but NJ is all driveable distance.. |
I'm within an hour of SI. Bryan(disturbedfan) may think he's 20's mins closer but his turbo Miata is off the road.
|
i am 20min closer, but yes my turbo miata is off the road, and because of that you have 2 running ones :)~
|
What happened to your car Bryan?
I am in Brooklyn, thats 20 min from anywhere in SI. There's a guy, USJDMtuner, on miatamob and he's in SI, exit 13 I think it was. |
cool, plenty of local peeps then...
my car is down at the moment, gotta hunt down a coolant leak and haven't had a chance to work on it. I just thought of something, here in FL there's no emissions...so I run no cat, removed my charcoal canister, and was going to remove whatever else I can... What's the chances of me being able to get this car on the road up there as-is? |
Couple of us in western NY.

the new york metro area has emissions standards pretty similar to California just without the CARB stuff.
|
greaaaaat, guess i gotta find a "friend" that can give me a pass..
also, gotta see what to do about storage...as of now only spot I have is stree parking...not too happy bout that. on the + side found some time today and looks like the car is running well again...need to take it for a decent drive to make sure |
you should come to the dyno day.
|
yea I posted in that thread, unfortunately I wont be there till after Thanksgiving...
and the guys down here have one planned for early dec...which I will miss as well since i'll be up there....so that's 0 for 2 Next one tho for sure |

What's the chances of me being able to get this car on the road up there as-is? I dont have a charcoal canister but I kept all the electronic stuff for it, and I kept my EGR. I also have a CAT. I passed emissions last month, no problem. But... I had my car scanned with the rear o2 monitor in INC(incomplete) status. Interestingly enough, I have never seen the rear o2 monitor come in as OK on my OBD scanner. So maybe the emissions computer doesnt check it. |
I'm OTB Italian man, so all good!
I guess I'll just figure it out once I'm up there... I might be leaving the car here for the winter and pick it up in March or so. I don't have any place to keep it except the street, and I really don't wanna do that... Unless I find somewhere indoors to stash it, I might have to part ways for a little while |
