Snowfox That's a pretty damn good milage! And true it is a lot more haha. i've thought about turboing it but it'll cost me way to much plus my engine is in great shape. Aftermarket turbo kit will cost me about 2500 that's way to much i'd be cheaper off buying a R32 or 180SX also ordered bucket seats from QSP that look like Bride Low Max seats and 3 inch 4point harness from QSP should come soon. Plus new drift tires 😃
Jesus_Christ lol I get like 9l/100k in my mazda 3 2.0.. I do have a very very heavy foot tho ! probably doesn't help!
Snowfox Whaddap dude's! little things happened lately. Bumper lip! Installed a POWAAAAAH filter for more growl and style points 😃 bucket seats are in! selling the 13" and the 15" ATS Rims, because i found an awesomer and cheaper set! now waiting for the 4point harness Had a car meet where one of my mates with is Eunos Roadster that is ultra low and got some shots 😃 also, i went with someone who wanted to buy a Miata(the blue one), yes it's a girl, yes she wants to modify it and yes she wants to drift :awesome: completely not related to this but i wanted to share it
David_2709 1.6 or 1.8? I was passenger in a 1.6 and it made me smile all the way, but I don't know if the 1.8 is the same
Franco # Snowfox : LOVE what you are doing with the car, but i cant stop thinking that either your wheels are small, or you need meatier tires, or a serious drop
Snowfox @BB :Awesome: that one came out better then expected 😃 @[deleted]. This is the 1.6 version, i've owned a 1.8 but the 1.6 feels quicker and more powerfull. Higher RPM limit but less torque. Makes me smile every single day. @[deleted] I'm running on 195/45R14, not that extremely low since shitload of speedbumps. Gonna run 195/45R15 just picked up a different set of rims! A brand new set of Gold Rota Mesh 15X8. Guy had them for a year but didn't want to put them on his Civic. BRAND FUCKING NEW! And it was a steal for that price!
Guppy Nice wheels, everyone hates on rotas but there isnt anything wrong with them, had a Set of Rota D2EXs on my old skyline.
Snowfox Thanks, i'm really happy with them! Depend on what you do with them, i wouldn't want a shitload of power on them, But i wanted these because 1. Awesome rims and 2 if i smash one up i'm able to get a replacement. but it's gonna be a hell of a job to fit them, 15x8 ET0
Snowfox Was planning on that, full rear fenders bur gotra save some cash first. After the wheels are on and the others are sold i'm gonna take it down a notch with parts. Spend over 5k in the last 9 months :awesome:

Spend over 5k in the last 9 months :awesome: dafuq... 5k on the mx5 alone? I just had an MOT list: new windshield, rear shocks (bought bilstein/eibach B12 sportline new to replace the entire suspension) and new wheels for 1/4th of the money and then there is an engine swap in the works too :awesome:
Drifty @[deleted] man,awesome build,i appriciate it,looks so good and clean,can you tell me the engine&suspension specs you did please? I think i should buy a miata too,they are much fun and they are always happy 🙂
Jaziba # Snowfox : Haha with the car itself around 7.2k, but dayum that's a long list! list is not that long actually, it was 3 things.
Snowfox @[deleted] sssshhh i was tired xD @[deleted] thanks! Still working on it haha i didn't do extremely much on the engine. 421 Exhaust manifauld straight pipe as replacement for the catalystic converter stainless steel exhaust 8mm Spark cables(instead of the 7.5mm stock ones) Pod filter (gonna go back to stock since it dips when i fully throttle from lower revs, throttle response is quicker tho) Suspension is a D1 Spec coilover set with adjustable stiffness, a way to change the rebound on the dampers and a seperate way to adjust the height(instead of tightening the spring itself it uses a different way, don't know how to explain it haha) and a TR lane cage to stiffen the chassis and safety. i tried a strut brace on the front but removed it since it created a lot of understeer on wet roads. plans are to get chassis rails to protect the chassis and try to get some more stiffness
Snowfox Whaddup Stancers! Had a driftday last sunday didn't went that great since i had a lot of trouble with understeer and some sort of braking "failure" the brake response felt really spongy, ran of the track and lost both bolts that connect the exhaust header to the rest of the exhaust and damn it was loud! On the way home my mate got problems with his alternator, car stopped running while he was driving and as the good friend i am, i suggested to tow him home, 60km, at a speed of 110km/h passing other cars on the highway :awesome: but we survived it! Interested in the guy behind Snowfox? I had a shitty sort of interview with one of the guys from DriftMania and a vid they created with action shots! Also the 4 point harness arrived! The pics showed are a test fit at an information day from a school near here. Fixing the exhaust! Towing my mate 😃 not that safe with a distance of 1.50m plus minus xD Action shots of my mates Miata and my other mate his S14 Some drift vids from my Instagram LOUD NOISES! Straight piped yo Coming in hot! Inside view with loud noises! Driftmania TV episode one(if you don't want to watch the entire vid skip to 2:35) [youtube=http://youtu.be/WzfZAatPxH8] Drift shots of the day! With loud noises :awesome: (first shot of me at 2:25) [youtube=http://youtu.be/iiJ9ztgN_lw] dirty bitch 😃 Information day and hey look! My old car!
