Oh, The Things we do for Love!

I bought this little beauty 2 years ago. It had been hit in the rear end, all she needed was a bumper cover and a trunk deck. No suspension damage at all.

First: A bit of Basic Information about our little Miata:

!No body Damage!

No Rust

Top looks like new

No rips/tears in interior

No cracks on dash

Touch Screen Am/FM/MP3/DVD Player (cool!)

You'll see in the pictures above the radio a Air/Fuel Gauge, a Fuel Pressure Gauge and a Boost Gauge (from left to right) (See Supercharger below!)

Power Windows

Air conditioning (nice and cold!)

5 Speed Manual Transmission

Body Kit (From Mazda OEM)

A Whole Heck of Awesomeness!



The vehicle has 45217 miles on it, but I had the engine rebuilt by an outfit that specializes in only Miatas in Sunnyvale, CA called Track-speed Engineering: I did this to ensure that the addition of the supercharger would never be a problem, the engine was wroking just right. 

Here is What They Did:

Rebuilt Head with Super tech valves, Springs, and Valve Seals

Port Matched Head

Super tech Forged Pistons with 8.5:1 Compression for Forced Induction (Bored .030 Over)

Eagle H-Beam Forged Rods

Weisco XX rings 

ACL Race Bearings

New Street/Strip Oil Pump

New Water Pump

New Gates Racing timing Belt/Pulleys/Tensioner

All New Seals/Gaskets

Threw on a Racing Beat Header for good measure!

The Engine has exactly 233.6 Documented miles 

Then I put on the beast!

MOSS Motors MP62 Supercharger Kit

For anyone who does not know, the MP62 is the largest supercharger available for the Miata. 

I set i up with a modest pulley size to put out about 7 PSI according to the boost gauge. 

With pulley changes, this is capable of pushing as much as 20 PSI

Then To hold Down the Power:

I added a Racing Clutch form 949 Racing: 

Again, Miata specialists. 

This can hold down plenty of juice. 


So what's the catch? 

There isn't one. 

I have truly loved this car for the last two years, it has been a labor of love for me to take this MX-5 from something good to a truly great little car. 

But it's time to move on to the next project. 

So, the bottom line, if you are looking for a reliable, incredibly fun and very reasonable sports car, this is it. 

Oh, PS, this is an adult owned car from start to finish. 

Also, the sponsor vinyl on the side is completely removable. 
if you don't like it, but who wouldn't right?


I like to have a little fun with my ads, but without any reservations, this is an excellent car and a blast to drive!

Good luck bidding! And take care of her!

Mazda struggles to meet demand on rising sales

Mon, 23 Sep 2013


For Mazda there's good and not-so-good news on the heels of strong US sales in 2012: demand is high - especially for the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - but supply is low, TheDetroitBureau.com reports. That's partly because all Mazda production happens in Japan, since it ended its alliance with Ford and pulled out of a joint venture with the blue oval building cars in suburban Detroit last year.
In 2012, Mazda sales here jumped 26.4 percent, but 2013 sales through August have just been keeping pace with the overall US auto industry, increasing at a rate of 6.8 percent. Mazda North American Operations director of marketing and communications Jeremy Barnes says that sales have slowed because the company is facing challenges delivering products here.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata firsthand impressions and notebook scribblings

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

In a temporarily repurposed airport hanger in Monterey, CA, the world caught its first glimpse of the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata tonight, and I was fortunate enough to attend in person along with my fellow auto media colleagues, Mazda execs, a couple hundred Miata devotees and, oddly, a fair number of Duran Duran fans. The klieg lights have dimmed, Simon Le Bon is no longer ringing in my ears, and I'm left to ponder what I've seen. I've scavenged my notes - and my Twitter feed - to give you some details and brief thoughts.
Fair Warning: I can't claim to be completely impartial (I own a second-generation NB and consider the Miata franchise to be one of but a few sacrosanct franchises in modern motoring), but I will share my honest first impressions of the new car, both good and bad.
Here are my notes:

2014 Mazda6 Skyactiv-D Wagon

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

This was sort of a quirky surprise drive opportunity. I've been over here in Italy for a while now, and Mazda Italia contacted me seemingly out of the blue to drive test some version of the Mazda6 with a diesel engine. Supremo. The Mazda6 is a sexy everyday beast and I have been digging their SkyActiv-D engines for a while now. Very spirited units.
My contact phones me the day of, and says he can come by with the car, and then we'll head off to some sort of special spot for dynamics testing and technical conversation. Nice deal, say I.
My guy Ernesto pulls up outside of the house and - lo and behold - it's a dang Mazda6 station wagon with the very most recent 2.2-liter SkyActiv-D motor good for 148 horsepower and healthy 280 pound-feet of torque. The wee four-banger with 14.0:1 compression ratio hauls this 3,260-pound wagon around with the best of them. A decent 0-to-60-mph time of 8.7 seconds, too.
