Finally time to mod the Miata
 
Hey guys I'm jake! so I've owned a Miata for about a year and a half a 1993. I've been from a 1966 mustang, to a 2012 370z, to fully built 08 ranger prerunner, to motorcycle, but then I fell in love with the Miata. She's pretty stock besides wheels and exhaust. My goal is 300whp with a turbo and e85! I have a long way to go to get the rest of the car good to go before all this can happen and I hope along the way I can have some people help me out!

This is the truck, still have her for now until gas gets a bit more expensive then I'll probably sell, has a lot done including a diff geared rear end, spare tire setup in the back, exhuast, 35 inch Kevlar reinforced wheels etc. It's great and all but 10mpg has been pretty bad

Truck looks clean just keep it. I wish i kept mine it was a lot of fun. The only think that drove me nuts was the micro front wheel bearings. Truck needed the camburg hub kit bad. One day id like to get another but thats out of the picture for a while.

Id love to take off-road but being a 2WD I'd hate to get stuck out somewhere so I'll just take a few dirt roads but she seems to be a "street queen" 😂

Care to share your thoughts on the 370z?
I'm always interested to hear opinions of ex-owners, they tend to be less biased.

The 370z was awesome! I had the 2012 sport package 6 speed manual. It was great on the back roads, quick on the streets, and in all murdered black was quite the head Turner. My only complaints was the gearbox wasn't great to me, and that I feel it needed a little bit more power. I was part of a group of Z's here in San Diego and most of them supercharged. The 5.0 mustangs stock still walked over them. If I had enough money for a Z but not a 5.0 it would be the first car id buy again out of everything. But it's a great car that definitely wants you to crave more out of it. I had to sell mine to pay for school, I look back every now and then and wish I still had it.
