Looks nice. Is that a legit GP kit or a knock off? What kind of intercooler are you going to run? Needs to be lowered for sure.

thanks! its a genuine kit =) i agree theres TOO much room in the wheel wells but the front bumper is actually really low in person so im trying to grow a pair before i lower it lol.

since im on a budget from doing 2 projects at once i went with a GODSPEED f/m intercooler. looks like a lot of people are with 300-600 hourse power are getting by fine with them so i opted not to go the $Greddy$ route that the previous owner had lol

Not so much. My current dd isn't slammed. It's lowered a bit on springs and shocks and I still scrape my exhaust sometimes. My other 7 will be slammed with a gp kit however. I'm looking forward to avoiding speedbumps and driveways.

the kit was put on by previous owner. he had a greddy f/m and the car is actually an 87 with a new factory S5 engine... he putin the cage, seats, S5 interior and had it at 520 rwhp. i was told he invested about 50 thousand then he lost his job and parted it out so here i am trying to rebuild it ...he said a guy on this forum sold him the clear markers. if i find out who ill let you know!

lol yea cause it has a body kit, i agree but ive always been into drifting and i autocross my miatas before i bought this fc. the factory BBS's in the miata community are HUGE! the asking price for them are 800-1000 for 14's and 15's since they only came on limited edition cars for 3 years. and since their so light, us autocross guys and drifters LOVE them on miatas... thats why im partial to buying a set for my FC i guess..

ill sleep on it before i decide to go with purple but i think purple looks great on black! LOL
