That's okay. I don't have enough money for the projects I already have.

a 13b in a 929 ? What a waste. Put it in a 88 B-series Truck lower it. put a body kit on it. and make the truck with T-tops. *druels*

..........a b-series? y would I want to stick a rotary in a ford ranger? Heres a luce with a some lips on the body and a stock 13bt. All you need is a luce engine subframe and custom tranny mounts.

Sweet. You should come out to an autox or Miata meet sometime.

Here is a pic with my new trackdog racing splitter.

I think the headlights still look great without the bezels.

Here is the club that meets every Wednesday in Tampa. I am usually there.

The 1.6 Miata Engine is based on the 323GTX (or AWD rally fame) motor, IIRC.

The Miata may be a car for old gay men and college girls, but when you are smoking Mustang GTs and Hondas, it's all the more sweet.

If you want the Miata to look less "gay", there is always Garage Vary to help you out: http://www.vary.co.jp/wd.html



The Miata is more of the "light weight for all around performance" school of design, while the Rotary cars, although light, are more of the "supercar to hang with the big boys" design approach. Both cars hold tremendous performance potential, but IMO I would have to give the Miata the edge as a non-track only car for it's use of standardized technology and it's tuning philosophy.

Hope this helps!

^ You just sound ignorant when you say "it may be a car for old gay men and college girls" and "If you don't want it to look so gay" That back bumper is pretty dam ugly.
