It's cool that you're sticking around, but I just have this feeling that you won't be here too long. You'll be like "MT.net is a bunch of ********, F those guys". About being faglicious...do they call it faglicious cause it's a miata? Or faglicious cause it's a miata with a huge atrocity of a wing on it?

Okay, I will take that advice. Any "fine gentleman" want my wing. Open to offers. Driving from California To Florida tomorrow. So yeah will cover basically the bottom half of the country for delivery! It was on a STI and then it got removed then got the screw holes rippped out. it was then epoxied back in. has been running fine and I have gotten a little over 100 with the wing so im pretty sure it can take the beating.

I'm def. Sticking around will take your advice next paycheck ad get a spare decklid. You guys are correct. I wil be sure to read that! Also. Top down widows up cause I just got my tint done! I think it's dumb also! I was reading the cheap and free mods also. What do you guys think about the mod where you tape the top corner of your lights to give it a aggressive look? Honestly. Would it just make me more gay. I already get **** for it being "faglicious" that's what my friends call it along with "the ****"
Reading the forum will give you a great perspective on the price of upgrade parts. Stick to your plan, and watch the for sale section like a hawk. Great deals can be found there.
I'd probably start with a 4 point roll bar, then a set of frame rails (amazing results. A complete set of poly bushings make a big difference (but the amount of work involved is not for the faint of heart.) I posted a writeup about a cheap harbor freight torch. Burning them out is probably the most painless approach.
Alternately, don't do a lot to this car, save soem money, pick up a prebuilt turbo car after you know what you want. There have been some pretty good deals lately.
