**Engine knocking**

Location: Jacksonville, FL
Priced to sell at $7000.
This car can be literally parted out for over $10k. but i dont have the space nor the time to deal with that.
It will take about $20K to replicate this car.

Fix the engine with a few hundred dollars in parts, and two weekends wrenching, and you have a $15K Turbo Miata.
I will include another engine block and another vvt head free with purchase as spares.

It is with great sadness i am parting with my Miata, i have owned it for 8 years, and i feel its time to move to a new build.
I just finished building the forged engine with all the goodies, and 100 miles into driving and tuning, it started knocking.

Who ever buys the car, and fixes the engine, will be very happy with how fast it is and how well it handles, with full street comfort and track performance.

Specs below:

Lots of research and time went into building this car over the years of my ownership.
It is one of the most refined modified Miata's i have ever driven, it retains all OEM creature comforts,
has full functioning COLD AC, hot heat, and power steering.
Plus sound deadening materials lining the trunk and rear shelf for improved noise insulation.

Southern car all its life, absolutely ZERO rust.
201K miles on Chassis, but really almost nothing original is left except the shell.

I set the car for 2 boost settings, mild and wild.
These can be switched right on the Android head unit/stereo on the fly.
setting 1. Wastegate only, 10psi, produces a super fun 250hp. this is what i use 95% of the time
setting 2 Kill mode - 17psi 309hp. be ready for a wild ride and embarrass most Mustangs, Vettes and Porches.

OK on to the Specs:

Turbo: (All turbo related stuff was bought brand new).
EFR 6258 T25 turbo, medium wastegate spring

Kraken 3" Stainless downpipe

Cooling:
Car has amazing cooling, You can drive it on the track all day on 90+ degree days with zero worries.
Can drive on the highway on a 90+ degree day with A/C blasting. I can tell you that 90% of turbo miatas cannot do this.

I am sure i am forgetting some things.

You will be hard pressed to find a more complete and refined Turbo Miata.
I have done 2 track days, 3 Autox days and lots of weekend cruising. and this car can truly do it all in comfort, with amazing handling and power.

Only real negative, is that the clear coat is chalking off due to Florida sun.
Could use a new paint job to make it beautiful again, or spraying new clear coat.

Great deal for someone that likes a project. The parts list is impressive, the car looks clean, you can't go wrong here. Someone jump on this before I buy a 4th miata.

 

SOLD. Went to a good home to another MT member.

Now to the next project.

 

Turbo NA/NB > NC = The new miataturbo.net cycle if life?

Congrats to the buyer!

 

Tis' is life. NY -> FL, NA -> NB -> NC. and maybe eventually ND when they are cheap enough.

I stole this NC for $2300 running but poorly, $1700 for a 2.5L focus swap and i have a fun and reliable miata.
Maybe coils and wheels eventually.

 

This is my old car, funny I stumbled across it. Owned it about 10 years ago.

 

Nice! I'm the new owner. Very excited to have this car. Started tearing into it already but will probably be awhile before it's back on the road.
