    Default Another local Turbo Miata

    Oh what the hell, i'm bored at work and took these the other day for a friend and figured i'd throw them out here. Car is a well-modded 1999 10th Anniversary Miata with a cute little e-bay turbo kit on it
    Not the best pics i've taken.. but this is what I get for rushing. Figure someone will like it...

    Eh.. i'll eventually find time to swap wheels with him for shits and giggles.. I think the NT03's would look good on his car.

    Looks good, the color is really nice. What kind of power do those make stock?

    Doppelgänger, were you at the bowling alley in Newnan a few weeks ago?

    If so, your car is crazy nicer in person!

    a stock miata is slow as fuck, my friend bought a 99 one to maybe do spec miata racing in. i drove that thing and my moms beetle could outrun it. i think that miata in the pic stock makes like 120h/p or something close to that. don't quote me on that though. i wouldn't mind having a new mazdaspeed miata though. and no i am bot bashing on miatas so please don't take as such.

    Well, you're right. Stock N.A. Miatas are painfully slow. Handle nice but can barely get out of their own way. I drove one once and only once. lol


    Oh dear.... yes... we went bowling in the far away land of Newnan. That was interesting. lol

    ANY stock Miata is slow lol, even a MSM is slow as balls for a turbo'd car. Feels like a joke. They look good but stock are just ew.

    The Anniversary Edition has the same hp as other Miatas. It had a 6-speed and some other upgraded parts but nothing that added hp

    Did you post these on any of the other boards, I must have missed them if so. Looks good! I like how the Enthuza duals are almost hiding at that angle.

    And FlipKing, why are you using my car in your sig? lol
