Gotta be older than that. I swear I saw this on YouTube like 2-3 years ago after I got my Miata.

i have only had my car for bout a year and a half now..........besides thinking bout and seeing V8 swaps.....i have known about this motor for a long time now....and gears in my head started turning bout 6 months ago about swapping this motor into my car.

i wanted to get ahold of the motor and start playing with transmissions to mate to the engine, but this answered it for me!

I wonder what Hyper thinks about "fast" autocrossing a v6 powered Miata. ahaaha.

viperormiata 02-11-2010 01:35 AM

I still have the issue of ForeverMX5 with the original write-up of this car.Probably the only cool thing in that magazine, lol. I think it's pretty fucking sick and possibly a perfect autocross miata.

Plus it sounds oohhhhh sooo sexy:giggle:

WonTon 02-11-2010 01:52 AM

18psi 02-11-2010 02:43 AM

He's been dropped on his head as a child. Repeatedly

I'd rather a 350z powered one.

When did you visit Bell?

That looks like where they were with it last spring...did they ever finish that monster? Was going to Hawaii right?

Just a pic from the website. And as to where it goes when done... not a clue :p.

I've never been able to get any extra info out of Corkey through PMs... but then again, I'm not really a customer and I can understand being busy at the shop.

Will be nice to have a 350z miata out there though... even if Bell isn't the first (assuming no progress since last updates).

gospeed81 02-11-2010 10:01 AM

That won't just be a VQ35 Miata, it will be a TURBO VQ35 Miata.

Corky must have been the one to tell me the owner shipped it in from Hawaii. I'm sure that thing will be a blast on the roads there.

350z drivetrain isn't always expensive....

WonTon 02-11-2010 03:37 PM

can i get a full car (350z) for under a grand?

Sparetire 02-11-2010 03:41 PM

I would love to see the 1st gen SHO V6 in there. Nice broad power band and tons of top end. Plus the intake setup looks weird/awesome on those.

turotufas 02-11-2010 03:44 PM

Oh my! my two favorite things roadsters and Nissan power!
