Spectre chiming in
 

Hey guys. I bought a '91 Miata BRG in September 2012. I've been mostly working on getting the car(needs a new top) and the engine up to snuff before I start modifying it. Meanwhile, I am enjoying learning the car in stock form.

I was originally going to go with the FM1 turbo, but after reading some through this site I may go with something else like a Shanghai BEGI or something. In any event I have plenty of time to decide. First thing I will be doing after I am done getting the car caught up on its maintenance is the FM clutch happy meal.

I also have a 2004 Elantra for a daily driver. I've been driving it since 2008.

Glad to be aboard!

Welcome to the site! Make sure to add your location to your profile and post some pics of the Miata. also pics of your boyfriend, for Hustler.

Don't do too much work to get a 1.6 engine up to snuff. Just throw it in the garbage and get a 1.8.

Welcome. I think you are wise to modify a car that is not a DD.

Sell your 91 and get a 94+ with a 1.8 and Torsen. :giggle:

I understand that the 1.8 has a lot of advantages over the 1.6L but I'm not looking for more than about 150 rwhp. The 1.6 is running great, I just have to fix an oil leak. An engine swap is simply not on the table for me. :)

I always liked the BRG edition, only 4,000 of them were made. I just couldn't say no when I saw it.

Getting a smurf blue or BRG car is the only reason(s) to go 90-93. Any pics?

I have pics but they are all dark. I'll take some new ones on Saturday unless I forget. lol

Spectre722, congrats on signing up at the best site on the web!

Thanks. You were responsible for making me rethink my plan to get the FM 1 turbo.

Trying to decide how to proceed here. - MX-5 Miata Forum
