    if so, from what i have heard from a friend who worked at mazmart on this exact thing, is its a close drop in. iirc he did all the electrical?
    well guess make it longer,but id like the new RX to stay round 2700-800 pounds.

    OK, the Renesis is almost a direct drop-in in the NC Miata. We have one here that we have been doing. Almost all the mounting points are the same. We are also using the RX8 6speed gearbox. I agree with Hypno that the sales of the Miata have been awesome & will continue to be that. The first couple of years & all the issues the RX8 suffered (04-05) killed a lot of sales. And the gas mileage.
