    Default Possible Future Project

    I have been debating a lot recently as to whether I should keep modding my rx8 or pick up a project Miata. I want to start building my name in the car show industry. These are the current plans I have for a NA6C Miata.

    its going to be a project that will probably take years to finish....but I am sure I will be pleased with the end result.

    Let me know if you guys have any suggestions

    Body
    AutoKonexion GT widebody
    Autokonexion one piece V2 fastback (i saw this and the Widebody once and I never knew who made it till now)
    Autokonexion 1.8 CF hood with louvers
    Spec D Tuning Altezza Tail Lights (yes I know this is a bit ricer but I like the black housings)
    Still lookin for some good headlights

    Engine/Engine Bling
    Greddy Turbo Kit
    Greddy Oil Cooler
    Cusco Oil Catch Can
    Cusco Cooling Plate
    MSD Spark Plug Wires
    Greddy RZ BOV
    Still deciding on intercooler

    Exhaust
    Ichiba Downpipe
    Greddy Racing Ti-C Exhaust

    Suspension
    Apexi N1 ExV Coilovers
    Eibach Sway Bars
    Carbing Front Strut bar
    Energy Suspension master bushings kit

    Brakes
    Rotora front BBK
    Rotora rear rotors and brake lines
    Want to try and run SSR SP1-R's in 15x9 +9 (possibly add a spacer) in Black

    Transmission
    ACT HD-SS Clutch
    ACT Flywheel

    Miscellaneous NRG and Bride Interior parts
    (Steering wheel, hub, quick tilt, seats, harness)

    There were a couple other parts on the list but ya you guys get the idea.....this is going to be a looooong project.

    Very interesting. So this Miata will be all show? Just asking again since you said "car show industry" to confirm lol/
    Why not build the RX-8 for this same purpose, since you already own it...lol

    Well its still up in the air...modding the 8 is much more expensive...but I have been having trouble finding a Miata in the area for a good price. Some are just overpriced and others are in nasty condition....if i cant find a miata by the end of the month I am going to mod the 8 and just buy a beater

    I dont think anyone can build a miata and strictly classify it for "show"

    The miata has so much soul that it has to be driven to receive the benefits of owning one in the first place.
