lot of em up here? kinda new to the area. i was in alpharetta last i was on here.

One of the highest stock miatas ive ever seen
really? doesn't seem abnormally high to me.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
Maybe its just the pics lol
might be. i can only drop it about an inch due to the monster speed bumps in my neighborhood. i barely clear them as is.

You got rid of a z32 for a miata?!?!?!?!?
and what is a "hard dog"? Or is that just some epic typo
BUILT NOT BOUGHT .........
Id take a Miata over a Fat ass pig of a Z32
Eh, Idk there's just something sexy about a Z32 with a JDM front and and FMIC, plus i've never been too big a fan of the miata.
BUILT NOT BOUGHT .........
Z32 Style> Performance
Fixed
PUCK YOU... lolol
And the car looks great. Good luck with it.
hard dog makes rollbars
no i got rid of the Z32 because i'm in college and it's just not a good car for me to have right now. i'm gonna get another one when i graduate.
and as allout13 said, hard dog is a company that makes rollbars for miatas.
thanks man. i was actually looking at your thread earlier. looks like you've got some nice plans and it's looking good so far.PUCK YOU... lolol
And the car looks great. Good luck with it.

Yeah. I've got work to do and no time. I have to get that motor in, do the clutch, slave, motor mounts, and a new rack and pinion at the same time. haha. But as soon as I get the time, it's going in. Then I'll be focusing on some more cosmetic stuff. They're addictingly fun to drive, but need a little boost in power (at least mine does.) You'll have a bit more power than I with the much lower mileage BP-4W though.
And I've always been a fan of that nose in that color.
But just for fun... this is my girlfriend's car. (given to her by her grandmother)Won't let me do anything but drive it. Only driven for brief periods in spring and fall.
10ae
15k
6spd
PERFECT.
My frustration.....
cute car (-_^)
"If in doubt flat out!" In memories of ~Colin Mcrae~
yeah miata's can be kindabut whatever. i have a blast driving it, it's great on gas, and i love it.
plus the drop top is awesome in this weather.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
oh i'm already itching for a Hydra II kit.
i feel you on the little BOOST of power.
oh my dear god.
that's a 10ae?
looks like an 01+ front to me and the 10ae was '99
aslo weren't the 10ae's all in that exclusive blue with the matching interior?
i would kill for that. freaking immaculate.
i'm actually looking to get a set of those wheels to put on mine, unless i can find something aftermarket that won't cost me an arm and a leg.
also, forgive my ignorance, as i'm still new to miatas,
BP-4W?
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
Lol... yup. Not a 10ae. :facepalm: I don't pay much attention to NBs simply because I don't have one.
The BP-4W is the engine in the early NBs if I'm not mistaken. 98-2000.

gotcha. i know how that goes. i could barely tell you anything about tha z31's but the z32's i know a good bit about.
figured it was an engine code.
i thought all the NB's had the same 1.8 though? or at least the same block. i know the 01+ had a different header and a few other small things i believe.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
BP-Z3 was in the 01-05. I'm pretty sure the block is very very similar for all BP engines. But don't quote me on that one.

My Miata also has an engine.
ah gotcha.
echonova, i saw you posting in the athens forum. you in the area? i'd love to come out to a meet some time and get to know some people in the area. when/where are the meets?My Miata also has an engine.

Wheels first, springs will always be on that site. The Wheels wont always be there.
Depends... I would say the springs because those rims need tires, which is even more money out of the door.
But, if you need to get tires anyway then I would do the rims first. The springs will always be available at that price.
Edit: Gah!!! I got ninja'd
i'm kinda leanin towards the springs because of the fact that those wheels do need tires. i've still got a decent amount of tread life left on my 14's and i'm thinking if i wait i may find another set of those 15's that have some decent rubber on them and maybe even located a little closer to me.
i'd LOVE to get some aftermarket wheels, but i just can't find any i think would look good for less than like 500.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
If I were you I would save a little cash and grab Megan springs with a good set of shocks if you don't want to run a full coilover. I can promise you won't notice a difference unless you really want green springs instead of orange lol.
i don't wanna skimp on anything. i know that the S techs aren't the best things out there, but they're still pretty good. and i will follow up with a good set of shocks in the future. it's just gonna be a slow process. i just can't justify buying anything megan, when the difference really isn't THAT much in price.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
Tein S-techs are great for street use. But you'll need some good shocks to go with them.
Coilovers are so much nicer and not really that much more expensive after you buy nice springs and shocks.

I'd rock Koni's and GC over any full coil over under $1200, any day.
This.
This.
Seriously. I fucking love miatas and always lunge at the opportunity to hop in the driver seat, but if you throw some bs suspension on it, you'll ruin it's sole. Don't skimp on the on the only masculine part of the Miata.
yeah but i don't have the cash to drop on coil overs. i'm a college student with bills to pay haha.
and yeah i know the s techs will need shocks to go with them, and i'm planning on it, just at a later date.
i just wanna drop it a little. this whole stock thing is killing me. the only thing not factory in this car is the head unit and i just put that in yesterday.
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
well... you could always go with Racelands like me. I would recommend them from my experiences with them, but some don't like them.
link?
'99 NB - Bolt on's and stuff.
I think its just racelandus.com or something like that.
