Car has no codes and passed inspection a couple months ago. More I'm sure Car is squeaky because of the heim joints, car is very stiff because of the springs. The squeeky suspension is constant... This was first and formost an autocross car. It was very fast and needs some work to be autocrossed again. It runs it starts, I drive it around no problem. Has a small dent in the right rear quarter, was there when I bought it. Car will fit 275 Hoosier A6's with suspension and wheel opening mods that have been done. Has thousands of dollars in parts on it as a parts car and if someone wants to spend I little time on, it out can be really fast again. I don't have a garage or time right now so it's time for it to go. Most of the interior has been ripped out and don't have any of it. It's not pretty and it is what it is. I figure someone will want to strip it for parts to put on another Miata or do some work and have fun with it again. I bought the car with 95K had all the mods done and hardly drove it other than autocross. Anyone interested in this car should car and chat with me, I'll tell you all about it in full detail as I want no surprises and the buyer to understand what I know about the car. I have prefect feedback and intend to keep it that way. As for how it runs: 1) After it has been running a while it idles fast but tap the pedal and it goes down to idle no problem. I figure that's the idle control valve but not sure. 2) At the autocross after a couple of runs it shuts down to idle. After the cars cools it's fine. Driving on the street it doesn't do it as you can't drive it that hard on the street. I have a couple ideas on what it is but don't have time to work on it. To me, it needs better cooling and a better air intake. But again I have no proof so it is here as is and expect to do some work if you want to drive it hard. On the street the blower kicks in fine, is fast, sounds great, although it's not that comfortable with the really stiff suspension. 3) It is not pretty, is definitely a 50 footer. There is small scratches and dings, the dent as shown in the picture. The pictures look better than in person but again from a little ways away it looks pretty good. The seats are very light and fiberglass, seat covers are faded but no rips and can be replaced.
4) Dash lights arn't working noticed tonight, haven't driven it at night in a while (will check the fuse). I have a spare parts and things not included, will put them up on ebay after this auction ends. A low miles 5 speed tranny, 15X9" wheels for race rubber and a fresh Rubella Stage II head, that has been ported, bigger exhaust valves and a small lift cam that fit this car but don't come with it. Engine would make more power and run cooler with this head... If I had time... |

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:
Japan could consolidate to three automakers by 2020
Thu, Feb 11 2016Sergio Marchionne might see his dream of big mergers in the auto industry become a reality, and an analyst thinks Japan is a likely place for consolidation to happen. Takaki Nakanishi from Jefferies Group LLC tells Bloomberg the country's car market could combine to just three or fewer major players by 2020, from seven today. "To have one or two carmakers in a country is not only natural, but also helpful to their competitiveness," Nakanishi told Bloomberg. "Japan has just too many and the resources have been too spread out. It's a natural trend to consolidate and reduce some of the wasted resources." Nakanishi's argument echoes Marchionne's reasons to push for a merger between FCA and General Motors. Automakers spend billions on research and development, but their competitors also invest money to create the same solutions. Consolidating could conceivably put that R&D money into new avenues. "In today's global marketplace, it is increasingly difficult for automakers to compete in lower volume segments like sports cars, hydrogen fuel cells, or electrified vehicles on their own," Ed Kim, vice president of Industry Analysis at AutoPacific, told Autoblog. Even without mergers, these are the areas where Japanese automakers already have partners for development. Kim cited examples like Toyota and Subaru's work on the BRZ and FR-S and its collaboration with BMW on a forthcoming sports car. Honda and GM have also reportedly deepened their cooperation on green car tech. After Toyota's recent buyout of previous partner Daihatsu, Nakanishi agrees with rumors that the automotive giant could next pursue Suzuki. He sees them like a courting couple. "For Suzuki, it's like they're just starting to exchange diaries and have yet to hold hands. When Toyota's starts to hold 5 percent of Suzuki's shares, this will be like finally touching fingertips," Nakanishi told Bloomberg. "I absolutely do believe that we are not finished seeing consolidation in Japan," Kim told Autoblog. Rising development costs to meet tougher emissions regulations make it hard for minor players in the market to remain competitive. "The smaller automakers like Suzuki, Mazda, and Mitsubishi are challenged to make it on their own in the global marketplace. Consolidation for them may be inevitable." Related Video:
RC car drift video brings Fast and Furious style in 1:10 scale
Mon, Apr 13 2015Taking a cue from Lexus' 2015 Super Bowl ad Let's Play, Falken Tire is proving that RC cars can drift just as well, if not better, than their full-size counterparts. However, to make things four times as exciting, this clip eschews a single hopped-up model hanging its tail out in favor of a quartet of them sliding around together. Starring 1:10 RC versions of popular drift machines like the Nissan S15 Silvia, Mazda FD-chassis RX-7 and Initial D star Toyota Corolla AE86, these cars also get a suite of blinking LEDs to lend some extra color to all of the tire spinning. Plus, the use of well-positioned cameras and a scale model environment almost makes this group look like they're at work in the real world.
