that is a sexy engine bay for sure...it's makin me anxious to see the car
No, I am not a one post wonder - that was my first post to the Forum and do have a full time job and family.![]()
Yes, the R stands for Runner - I am sure it is generic enough - same thing as ITBs.
Low end is strong - lightened OEM FW, stock internals and upgraded exhaust from ZOOM Japan. Top end is heaven.
Runs with HKS F-Con Pro which means no tuning (expect when I change the internals) and never having to worry about weather or altitude.
My Miata has been in Road&Ster in Japan and is being covered in Modified Magazine soon (with a bit of luck).
Here she is:

Yes it is.
RSpeed is a great crew - I used to work there and we carried the largest Rota inventory on the east coast at one point. I am sure things have cnaged by now...

looks great
thats a nice looking ride.
I guess you could call it a "Ghia-ta". Very cool looking Miata.
