Let me know what you guys think!

Gonna turn it into a canyon/rally-x car :p

Always been a dream of mine to own any Rotary powered car.

First off is installing my bucket seats
Hawk Pads
Tokico Illumina shocks with RE-Speed coilover conversions
Stainless steel lines all around
Then probably a Lightweight flywheel

But mainly I'm just gonna drive the thing.
I am so excited I can't even fathom my excitement :p


Thanks guys!

Both cars look like a lot of fun. I always like the older Miata's. The newer ones are just too big. I always pass people in old Miata's in my FD and I don't think they know we have a car made by the same company at the same time!

The FB looks really clean. Haven't read much about them. I think I saw one on the road once, but I'm not sure if it was a Porsche from the same time period. Are they good rally cars? Do you plan to do anything with the engine? Are you going to turbocharge it like the later Rx-7's? It looks like it'll be a lot of fun to drive, especially with those new shocks. Where do you live that there are canyons nearby? There aren't many canyons up in Connecticut, just wooded roads.

 

Rhys Millen used one, so I'm assuming so :P
I'll see how I like the engine, but more than likely I'll end up doing a 13BT swap.
I live in Gilroy, CA
So I have HWY 152, Canada road, Uvas Road and a bunch of no name ones to play with :P

 

That sounds like a lot of fun :P good luck with whatever you decide to do with it. I may have to go look up videos of Rhys Millen in an FB

 

Gonna keep the miata?

 

love the Miata one day Ill own one.
