So you don't want forced induction...wtf are you here?
...cause people here actually go fast.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...fee6219116.gif Hello all, I'm Graham, 28 y/o with a 91 NA I've had for 4 years this December. Yes, the title is correct, I don't intend to boost the car ever really, but no place else on the interwebs (to my knowledge) has such a concentration of people and information about *actually* fast miatas. M.net is obviously worthless for anyone who shifts above 3k rpm, CR and mazdaroadster are largely highschoolers, stancedancers and scene kings. Thus, I wound up here. Also, I love cats. My gf and I have 4. Currently the car has NB Sport front brakes, BC Racing BR coilovers, HD Hardcore hardtop rollbar, 949 front sway endlinks, 15x7 RPF-1 wheels with 205/50 Nexen NeoGen tires, and depowered steering. I bought it stock. Ultimate goals for the car are a k24 swap and mild aero. For the foreseeable future the car is my daily so I'm going to suffice with minor mods and undoing what the 210k miles on the odometer have done to it. Thanks for reading! |

For the amount of non turbo miata builds we praise on this site, we need a name change. Maybe "fastmiata.net?"
(I want an zr1 swapped ND some day, I'll settle for a rotrex K swapped nb) |
I for one feel this thread is seriously lacking....

You had me at cats.

First are Arlo (black) and Loretta (long hair tortoise). They are siblings that we got about 3 years ago. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...66d3a576dd.jpg Next came Murray about 2 years ago. He is really one of the derpiest cats out there. But very patient and a total sweetheart; https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...95cca77dd6.jpg And then about 3 months ago a friend found a kitten in a tree that needed a home and we couldn't say no. Since he was a wannabe lumberjack, we named him Sven; https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...5258577e7e.jpg |
the MT Virginia chapter is constantly growing!

I met Graham when I was ruining a 4.1 diff just for the torsen. Looks like he actually does stuff with his car while I sit on parts.

Hello again Kevin, fancy meeting you here! I'd meant to look you up about that 4.3 Torsen you mentioned having, but then forgot your last name.

Lots of fast miatas here and a ton of setup technique and knowladge.

I love my BC BR coilovers, got them used with a miata that i bought 3 miatas ago, and kept them as they were great. Fast forward to my latest miata, that came with VVVVVSSSSMMMAAAAXXXXX coils, which in comparison to my BC's are a big mush of vague, under damping, bottoming out at bridge joints, and autox bumpstop riding mess. The BC's in comparison, ride smooth on the street, actually better than stock miata suspension, and i did autox and track days on them and they feel awesome. great damping, smooth, and never harsh, even over bumps. now i never been in a car with say Xidas. but so far, these are the best coilovers i've used. |
Welcome, and +1 for all the cats, you'll fit right in.
