    hey! I have a 1990 Mazda Miata, that has everything ready to be a great autocross car, and almost everything to be a good street car. but i am looking for somethign with some more space now. id like to trade for a sporty four door sedan, or a four seat coupe or convertable, im open to almost anything, and am willing to trade up or down. so let me know what you have!

    Here is a list of the good stuff,
    brand new wheels and tires less then 500 miles on them
    kyb agx adjustable shocks
    tein lowering springs
    seam welded chassis (makes the car stiffer)
    welded in roll bar (very safe)
    corbeau racing seat with cam lock 5 point harness
    flyin miata front sway bar
    strut bar
    power steering delete (better feel, quicker steering responce)
    custom sleepy eye head lights, with hids
    custom exhaust (racing beat header, jackson racing gutted cat, super trapp muffler, very loud, but comes with stock cat and muffler for emissions time)
    reflashed ecu (raises the rev limiter to 8000 so you can hold a gear longer during autocross)
    new brakes up front, less the 500 miles on rotors and pads, back has good life left
    pioneer head unit with ipod connection
    jackson racing 0 ohm plug wires and new plugs
    have a full set of stock wheels that will need tires, and i have an extra wheel that matches i used as a full size spare (would be good to mount racing tires on for track days, very light wheels)

    the bad
    top has no rear window, but i have a piece of clear plastic i put in there to help keep water out
    a/c was removed to make extra power (heat works great though)
    a few interior pieces missing.
    the last owner deiced he wanted to paint the car with house paint and a roller, looks good from far and it pics but bad up close

    i have more pictures, and can take any of any part of the car if youd like. the best way to contact me in though my email, [email protected] let me know if you have any questions or wanna offer me a trade. a few cars id be intrested in are porsche 911, 944, 928, 914, nissan 180, 240, 300zx, mazda rx7, rx8, speed 6, wrx sti, older lancer evolution, supra, skyline (if easy to register) and anything else that is fast, fun, four seats, and if it was targa or convertible id be very interested.

    Thanks, Ray

    Yeah the moron who traded his perfectly good running 914 to me...that blew up two days later.

    LOL I love how he thinks anyone would trade any of those for it. That car didn't even sell for 2k when I had it, and since all he's done is hit a curb with it, and take nice tires off for some Wal Mart all season and Sportmaxx's LMFAO.

    Lol plus cash on his side.

    I offered him a DSM I had and he replied he'd only trade for a high horsepower rear powered boosted car...what the fuck does that mean, that Miata has 80hp tops, I revved it to 9k daily for a year LMFAO.

    Let's set up a fake car using one off cardomain and get him to meet and video it, something worth at least $10k saying even trade. Then film him sitting their waiting for it to arrive and getting stood up lol.

    It will with that stock exhaust...maybe. He had to do a lot to make it pass. It's not a good street car AT ALL, it was never meant to be a street car. The carpet is gone, the seat is low, you HAVE to use a harness, no way to put a stock belt back, it's VERY VERY VERY stiff, and squeaks like CRAZY lol.

    I traded him a Porsche 914 for it. It's worth $1700, I bought it for $1700 then tracked it out and tracked/raced it for almost four years....it's abused beyond no other.

    There is a much nicer Miata on here right now for 2k if you want a Miata lol.

    No, it's not fast, it was ok quick when I had it running on a stand alone ECU and AFM delete and such, but it's just a 1.6, it's really under powered. As in any stock Civic can pull from it.

    It was, but since it blew up like that night I couldn't afford to fix it. VW parts with Porsche badges are expensive.
