I finally got one. A SA22C
Here's some pics at the original owners house.
I'll post some more once I get a chance to clean it up. The engine fells very strong. All it really needs is some new paint since it's been left outside. But the underbody looks almost mint. The odometer say 27XXX (the SA odometer only shows 5 digits). We thought the true milage was 127,XXX but with the condition of the under body and wheel wells leads my friend and I to believe it really only has 27,XXX. But the only thing I plan to do to it is a -SE suspension swap but I'm not gonna touch anything else.

The paint is all original. The clear coat is pealing from sitting in the sun. The dash is cracked as well. but there's a a couple in the junk yard that i'm pulling later.

^That's the only reason I bought the car. Now I'm fighting the temptation to start modding it since I know my GSL-SE won't ever be as light as my SA an still be street-able.

Wow. I haven't been here in a long while.... since high school. May as well update this. Got the car drivable and sold it. Now I've got into miatas...
I currently have a Rotrex'd powered 02 Mazda Miata with too much money in the suspension.
I've started cleaning up the engine bay since this pic...
What I do for fun
Here's how it looked before I started dumping money into it.
