an old coworker let me borrow the alignment rack where i used to work, so I changed the alignment up a bit so the car is a little more fun. i personally set it up. didn't use a weight ballast in the drivers seat but im not tracking the car. previous alignment was great but was very conservative like factory. had -0.5 degrees camber in the rear and practically none in the front, was at 1/8deg camber in front before adjusting today. toe was great. new specs are as follows (similar to Flyin Miata recommended specs)

looks fun, but i gotta daily drive the thing. i am like you in that i want AC and id definitely need something newer like late 90s or 2000+ model year. thanks for the interest though.
just ordered new stayfast canvas top, similar to euro tops (BMW, Mercedes, Audi, etc). new price is 6700 FIRM. should be installed by the end of next week. comes with heated glass window and i opted for new rain rail. top is OE design with quarter panels on either side of the window, see pic.
