First time Miata owner and new member
 

Hello all,

My name is Seth and I am a first time Miata owner. I purchased a 90 with 127k miles. Ive always liked Miata and finally bought one! I was looking for forums to join and I happened to scroll by here and thought it would be a solid site to be a part of. I am aware flaming of new members is a right of passage, so I shall do my best to not step on anyones toes and hopefully become an active member.

As for my Miata, it has a all stock motor and just a couple of bolt ons.
-catback exhaust
-static nine frame rail supports
-raceland coils (plan to upgrade asap)
-extended knuckles
-circuit sport quick release with grip royal wheel
-PBM shift knob

I have quite a bit planned for this car in the near future. I am currently very active in the Arizona drift community. I originally come s-chassis but decided to move to a Miata for my new track car! Although most likely frowned upon I do plan to make this my drift car..

Pictures:
(only shots I have from when I first bought it, will add more tomorrow!)

Looks like a solid car. You won't get any hate from me for drifting a miata. Any pics of your s chassis?

car looks pretty clean... welcome! no comment on the drifting... haha

Please tell me the style bar is gone now?

Yes sir I do,

and as so the lame style bar.. its all I have until my boss frog comes in. According to tracking it should be here next week!

Miatas make poor drift cars because of their low polar moment of inertia. A 240sx is far easier to control. It is one of the same reasons that Miatas are great road race cars and 240sx is notsomuch.

Good luck.

I keep feeling sad for the poor little white miata that's going to get ragged out and destroyed

It could almost be a movie. A sad sad movie.

I've seen this movie, the black miata always dies first. Unless there isn't one.

Thanks for joining, one_slow_otter!

Didnt I write a storyline somewhere on this site about a miata that was raped?
