sup all.

New to miatas, actually don't have one yet, but I have decided that it will be my next project. Now I am not new to cars and turbos for that matter, I am actually getting ready to sell my mk4 vw 1.8t gti that is now big turboed, but being parted out and returning back to stock to be sold. After I sell it I will have over $10,000 to dump into the miata right away and then a little more as the year goes. With everything said and done I want this:

-widebody
-dumped
-450-500whp
-caged and harnessed
-carbon fibered out

Engine
My plan of approach for the engine is to keep the 1.8 and use the 99+ head and then have that fully ported and built as well as the bottem end being built. i want to use a hta 3076r and make a custom tubular manifold and intake manifold as I have access to shearer (dsm dooodes) fabricators close by to make me one. WAI will be used and probably some kind of stand alone will be tuned via dyno. Duel walbro fuel pumps, arp bolts, pwr raiator

Tranny
-clutch masters stage 5
-quaife diff.
-6 speed

Chassis
-kw variant 1 coilovers
-front and rear sways
-front and rear lower bars
-custom or bought roll bars

Body
carbon fiber will be used extensively to save a little weight, but more realistically for style....like:
-lights
-hood
-trunk
-back of trunk thing
-mirrors
-etc.
-autokonexion wide body kit
-work equip 01/03's whatever tickles me at the time 15x10+ and stretched maybe
-status cf seats


but ya thats a brief overbiew of what I want to do....

PLEASE!!! make suggestions and guide me to people that KNOW WHATS UP. Sorry don;t mean to sound like an a-hole, but I would take suggestions from people under 300 whp, but I need/want to tlak to the people that have gone the distance and what is needed to go through with this project. Or is there really no one out there???? Well let me know what you all think and feel free to give pointers as I am new to these cars and the mazda/japanese car community.

thanks!
