Miata has got to go. Im craving something with more room to haul stuff around as I'm looking into moving within a year.
99 miata w/ 139xxx miles on chassis, 40k on engine from a 2000 model (identical to 99 engine). Engine seized literally 15 miles after driving it off the dealer lot. A lot of hellraising then occured to which a super low mileage engine from a local mazda yard was installed.
Car is emerald mica green w/ a tan top. Has a torsen LSD
Mods:
Hard dog double diag sport bar w/ harness bar
willans harness
2.5" exhaust w/ high flow cat (expensive!!)
Goodwin Monsterflow Intake
Tein SS Coilovers
Racing beat front sway bar
Rota circuit 8 wheels 15x6.5
Stage 3 ACT clutch (300ftlb rated)
9 lb. FM aluminum flywheel
Newer Cobalt Pads (squeak, but stop like crazy and good fade resistance
Magnecor Wires
The good:
Newer engine thats solid as a brick. Powertrain will last for quite a while.
New tires
Car has not been in any serious accidents. It was involved in a hit and run that screwed the rear bumper up, but has been fixed.
Rear calipers have been recently replaced.
The bad:
Has bunch of rock chips and several dings. About what can be expected from a 140k mile car
Left door speaker is blown.
Someone cut the top being a turd. Left 6 " gash. Will probably try and repair with sealant sometime soon.
Car shakes sometimes while starting off in first. This doesnt occur in launches, just regular granny driving. Sometimes the shaking can be pretty bad, buts it has done this for the 3 years ive owned the car. I thought it was the clutch, so i upgraded the clutch and flywheel and had a mazda dealer replace those for me, but it didnt help. Worst case scenario, the car could use a diff rebuild/replacement. Hasn't left me stranded yet though.
Afore mentioned hit and run was repaired, but with a subtle different shade of green. Cant notice it unless in certain light.
Some belts squeak when its humid out. Maybe need tightening?
Lots of other stuff that im probably forgetting.
Ive daily driven this car for 3 years now. Its been fun, but its time for something with more room in case I move out west. I want the next owner of the car to treat it the way it should be. Its perfect for an autox/track project, or just a fun weekend car to tinker with. When i ran 13x8 wheels and V700s, the car was regionally competetive in CSP (see pictures below). Ive autoxed it about 7 times.
Looking for a best offer over 5500, but i'm also looking at trades. Dont be afraid to throw offers out at me! I dont require much in a trade car, just that it have more room than a miata, be in decent and clean shape, and maybe have some potential for a fun car.
Nice 240s are a plus!
