Anyone interested in a turbo NB miata?! I chime in time to time to advertise (and I wish I was more involved with the miata scene in the 757 area)

I pieced together the entire kit (did everything myself except for the exhaust) and it is a very strong running car. Tuned with a Megasquirt II DIY PNP on 10 psi(very safe tune and a/f's were perfect). Made 188rwhp and close in torque. The car is "quick" in my opinion and I've owned faster cars but hell, I beat a s13 hatch with a redtop sr20 on 15psi and that did it for me. I purchased the car in february of 2011 BONE stock and since then have budgeted the mods to get it where it is today.

2000 LS (tan interior and torsen II diff ) with 110k miles. Running like a champ, burns maybe 1/2 qt of oil every 3 weeks with fun driving. RX8 injectors. Oh and not to mention, A/C is still funtional. (I have the latest idle up code for megasquirt to run a/c effectively) There is plenty of info and pics in my thread. I have a kid on the way and recently got in the military. I do not want to sell this car, but now it's urgent that I do. I'm offering some commission money to ANYONE who finds me a buyer. This miata will not let you down, and I will own one again one day. Please spread the word. I can be contacted at 757 292 7585 or PM for any further information.
Looking for 9k OBO.

Gutting the rest of my race car this weekend for caging. I have a m1 hardcore hardtop roll bar for sale $400, has a few blemishes from seat back braces etc. Has all hardware. Also have a blower motor box and all the hvac parts behind the dash make an offer on any of that. I have a Gforce(black) 6 point harness for $50. Expires 2013, can still be used for HPDE events even after that date.

Just food for thought my '94 m45 setup with adjustable cam gears, mspnp and a/a intercooler has made 167whp....at 4-5psi. dynojet corrected numbers. His turbo setup has more head room for sure.

His car is nice, but you could near duplicate it for the same money if not less.

Is there anyone parting out a car i'm guessing it needs to be a 1.8 94-95 (not sure if others will work) I need the passenger side axle but i'd be willing to buy both if the price is right . Mine is starting to really piss me off with all the damn clicking its doing .

Also if any of you fuckers know where i can buy mil-spec connectors for pretty cheap let me know . I found one place that will sell me 2 with a small amount of wire on either end for like 180 but if i can save a little on that it would be great .
