Then whatever I spend switching it all over .... still a 300+ HP miata for rather cheap. Itd be dumb not to do it.
Where I may fuck myself on the whole thing is if I buy a fastback top, then id have to sell the car for $8500 (fastback 300hp miata) to profit.
I miss having a quick little street car.
If thats not done by the time I get back....You fail.
PS. Mike Arrigo is gonna be busy.
PPS I would take a CLOSE look at that "built" motor and turbo kit before you install it. Look at who you bought it from....
PPPS. You don't need to profit if you sell the car. Having fun in it is worth it. Your not going regain what you spend. 8500 for an NA. Riiiight. Maybe if it had an LS1
