Hello(Recommend some mods )
Sup guys just picked up a 97' Miata, just getting into the car community so I don't know to much about cars but I'm very interested and eager to learn.
So with that being said recommend some mods for me, so far I plan for coilovers, quick release steering wheel, cold air intake, bucket seats with harness, it already came with a hard dog roll bar so that's done, and last but not least a turbo, so if anyone has anymore mods I should do or brands that would be fantastic, thanks. :P

, Some here run Tein coilsquick release steering wheel, Skip this...


cold air intake, If you really want one just make it yourself instead of buying a brand name. Don't suck up water

bucket seats with harness, Marrad makes nice seats at a good price. Comes with everything you need. Do your homework in the race-prep section of the forum for a harness that'll work. They work differently than seat belts and if installed incorrectly or not adjusted properly you're gonna have a bad time if you ever wreck
it already came with a hard dog roll bar so that's done, Nice.
The first thing I'd look into mod wise is getting a megasquirt so you can learn to tune your car. As for a first bolt on I'd pick up a racingbeat header and full exhaust (header/mid pipe/muffler).
If you plan to go trubo sooner than that and have baller monies. Just pickup a full flyin miata turbo kit with no electronics or a begi system... and use your megasquirt to tune it yourself.

Girzor, you're being excessively helpful.
Shuiend is a super mod. 18psi is a good mod.
I wouldn't recommend Hustler unless you like bicycles or bath houses.
Megasquirt and AFM delete will be your best hp for the $. Header will be meh and only get you a few hp.
If you get harnesses, don't get 4pt unless you want to die. 5pt or 6pt only, and installed per the instructions. SFI or FIA rated seats installed with a back brace or don't do it. No reclining seats.
That's, like, my opinion, man.

Sounds like you wanna race!
I'd recommend (and so would grassroots motorsports) 205 RE-71R tires on 15x8 6UL rims (949racing.com) and get a Longacre Tire Pyrometer so you can get your alignment dialed in based on tire temperature spread across the tire tread surface.
