Hey, im on my 2nd miata, a 91 with 176,xxx miles, my first one was an 06 that was rear ended by an 18wheeler, lots of plans and many questions i hope i can get answered here, so lets get started

 

Pictures are good. And I'll go ahead and ask the inevitable question:

Sure, you're a snowflake, but are you a special snowflake?

 

hi

 

Im not special, just a snowflake in south texas lol

 

Snowflake, congrats on signing up at the best site on the web!

 

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new addiction! Tell us a little bit more about your Miata and post some pictures, when you have a chance. I'm sure you will find a lot of useful information here.

 

Thanks braineack, i hope to learn as much as i can,



The horror





The mutilation





They totaled it out for this




Idk how to upload pics so im hoping i did this right

 

Put your location in your profile.

Where in south tx do you stay?

 

Welcome!

You are going to want to change out that roll bar to a beefier, 4 point bar. Pretty that's it's more deadly than going without one. It's a mousetrap.

 

Yes, unless that bar has supports somewhere that we can't see, it's quite dangerous. I'd take it off asap as the car is safer without it than with it.

Sucks getting rear-ended.

 

It does suck, never thought it'd happen to me, but i guess its an experience, glad im still breathing lol also idk how to remove it, it goes all the way down, like way down there, i was gonna remove it to get a better rollbar but it looks like id have to remove pretty much everything, unless its bolted down on the bottom of the car, i haven't really looked

 

Its probably bolted next to the seat belt pillars. Just pull the carpet back and have a look. You'll probably have to take the package shelf apart, but not much more.
