Hideeho I have delayed this as long as I can, but the time has finally come to find a new home for my Miata. It started life as ’94 r package Mazda Miata. It has since been customized extensively for SCCA solo competition in the SSM class or as a track day car by Speed South, originally for Robert Russom (who owned Speed South at the time). It has a HUGE turbo & custom horizontally mounted intercooler (to keep it out of the airflow for the radiator) utilizing a Greedy boost control to make 14.7lbs of boost & up. The heater works, but I removed the air conditioner system (I still have the components if you wish to reinstall it). The exhaust is a custom 3” pipe from the down tube back with a mid-mounted expansion chamber to keep the sound in check, at least a little bit. For electronics it uses a programmable Haltech system & a full MSD ignition system. It has all the typical gear to handle the extra heat of a turbo engine (oversized radiator, remote oil filter, oil cooler, fuel pressure regulator, etc.). The suspension has been completely gone through also (Koni yellows, 700# f / 350# rear springs, adjustable sway bars with heim links & reinforced mounts, raised rear shock hats). I installed a custom splitter & a dual plane rear wing. The interior has been worked over just as well with a 4 point roll bar with harness bar & camera mount, aluminum racing seats with harnesses for the driver & passenger, numerous extra gauges (boost, air/fuel ratio, fuel pressure, functional in dash oil temperature), small diameter removable steering wheel. The mounted wheels are 17”x7” TenzoR's (the RB's in the pictures are not included). There are also numerous parts that will come with the car (2 short blocks, a head, a timing belt, water pump & whatever else I run across in the garage for it). If you’re a large guy that has always wanted a Maita but never fit in one, THIS IS THE CAR FOR YOU! I had this Miata extensively customized to fit me. I’m 6’4” 350lbs. I fit under the roll bar & look nearly through the middle of the wind shield. I can even get in & out of the car with the top up! As it sits, shorter people (5’5” or so & under) can’t reach the peddles. If you are not as large as I am, I still have the stock seats that can be bolted right back in for you. Now for the bad stuff. There is a scratch on the rear wheel well & and another on the hood from cutting off an old hood lock that had broken. The interior door light that comes on when the door is open doesn’t work (dash lights are perfect). The soft top looks GREAT & doesn’t leak, but there is a tear where the back window is sewn on to the zipper. All the fluid levels are fine, but it has only been driven occasionally for the last several years, so they probably should be replaced before it is raced or put on the track, just as a precaution (the battery is new though). They’ll be fine for driving it home. If you would like other pictures or detailed pics of anything, just let me know. Thanks for looking & good luck bidding! |

Mazda3 to showcase CNG, Hybrid versions in Tokyo
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Mazda has made huge gains in its competitive set with the introduction of its Skyactiv technologies, and the Japanese automaker appears to have no plans on slowing down. While we're still waiting for the Mazda6 Skyactiv-D diesel to go on sale in the US, Mazda announced that it will debut new Skyactiv-Hybrid and Skyactiv-CNG versions of the Mazda3 (standard US-spec model shown above) at next month's Tokyo Motor Show.
Matching up with what we heard earlier in the summer, the Mazda3 Skyactiv-Hybrid is intended for Japan only, but there are no details about this system regarding fuel economy, electric components or specs. Likewise, there are no details for the Mazda3 Skyactiv-CNG Concept, which is a bi-fuel version of the car running on both gasoline and compressed natural gas. As this car's name suggests, the CNG model is a concept vehicle, and there is no indication that Mazda plans offering such a model here in the US.
In addition to these two vehicles, Mazda will also have an Atenza (Mazda6) on display showing off some vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) safety systems, called the ASV-5 (Advanced Safety Vehicle). Scroll down for Mazda's official press release.
2014 Mazda3
Fri, 12 Jul 2013The Cure For The Common Corolla
I hate the Toyota Corolla. I'm not talking about the new 2014 model; I can't yet judge a car I haven't driven. I'm referring to the current, old-as-dirt sedan. As an appliance, I get why people buy it, but it represents everything that I, as a car enthusiast, dislike. I don't like looking at it, I don't like sitting in it, and I really don't like driving it. There is absolutely no amount of emotion dialed into any part of the Corolla experience and every other vehicle in the segment is a far better choice. But still, somehow, Toyota sells 'em like hotcakes.
Thankfully, there are a lot of people who agree with me. And for folks like us, companies like Mazda exist. This small Japanese automaker places emotion and driver involvement as its top priorities when creating new products, and mostly - especially in recent years - the end results have been great. The new CX-5 crossover is a doll, to say nothing of the rakish and lovely new Mazda6 that launched earlier this year. And let's not forget the Miata...
A '70s F1 car and a first-gen Miata make an amazing lovechild
Mon, Aug 22 2016For no apparent reason, this artist asked what if Mazda built an MX-5-based F1 car? And what if it were from the 1970s, the glory days of James Hunt and Niki Lauda? Here's what it'd look like. Look at it! Look at its adorable little eyes and the huge tires. And the intake! The rendering is by YasidDesign and was done live in front of Facebook followers in a Facebook Live session. It borrows heavily from 1970s F1 cars – it looks like a March 741 served as the basis for the open-wheel portion – and blends it effortlessly with MX-5 styling cues. It all came together in about 90 minutes. Watching the process is remarkable, especially considering YasidDesign is doing the bulk of the work live while taking comments and advice from people on Facebook. Check out the video and YasidDesign's other works on his Facebook page. Related Video:
