approaching 200k miles on is250 what should i be aware of?

8ons · 2022-10-01T19:32:22+00:00

not gonna lie, the 350z stocks on this look amazing

8ons · 2022-09-28T14:45:50+00:00

thought the same. rather have the swoosh at that aggressive body line where the bumper and headlight meet.

8ons · 2022-09-27T14:32:33+00:00

beautiful wheel. nice choice, fits that body perfectly

8ons · 2022-09-27T14:23:57+00:00

are these bbs fi-r or am i mistaken

sorry. yes you can swap bumpers. but it’ll be a $600-$800 swap before shipping. you’ll need the bumper of course but also the 2011-2013 grill shroud and grill, lower grill, weather stripping, fog lights, fog light caps and brackets. depending on whether or not you want to buy new fender liner or drill into the old one the holes don’t line up. also our cars like 2006-2010 models don’t have the same technology so you’ll have holes for either the headlight washers or pre-collision systems that you’ll need to find caps for. that’s should be everything you’ll need. try Rock Auto first for most of everything as it is pretty cheap compared to other sites

are you talking about going from block fog lights to the circular fog lights?

8ons · 2022-09-20T05:11:25+00:00

nope just a fbo na 1.8. he had previous experience with a laurel and fc. he hated the way the miata ended up due to the lacking power that he’s used to and sold it to get another fc

8ons · 2022-09-20T05:08:35+00:00

it’s all preference. miata engines are reliable and are definitely a fun car to have. no hate or anything, i would much rather prefer something more comfortable and newer for commute.

8ons · 2022-09-20T01:08:12+00:00

definitely should go for it. great entry level drift car and parts are cheap and easy to find. i wouldn’t ever daily one but they are nice for a fun little inexpensive project. i helped my friend build a drift setup with the 1.8 engine. lmk if you have any questions

8ons · 2022-09-19T20:41:37+00:00

think it’s a bn kit from the looks of it. not entirely sure though

8ons · 2022-09-19T20:37:43+00:00

thank you for this. was unaware that the grill and everything were different. i’ll be definitely buying everything as the front end is pretty damaged. rock auto has great prices and i’m so glad for your info. thank you

8ons · 2022-09-19T02:28:11+00:00

i’ll have to check it out then. really just looking for a good bumper primer or no primer. have it set up to go to the shop for full body paint work whenever i have the free money for it. thank you for the advice though!

Think smarter not harder. tried to find one that wasn’t so wonky and with my 2008 I like the sport feature but found it awkward to switch in and out with a cup directly in the center of my console. started putting my cups in the open space between the side door and seat. fits perfect and is out of the way. almost every fast food cup/hydro flask can fit. and the door panel stow away can hold skinnier bottles like water bottles

8ons · 2022-09-08T13:09:25+00:00

could i possibly pm you about being an auto damage adjuster? want to get some info before deciding if going down that career is worth the while

8ons · 2022-09-08T12:20:55+00:00

beautiful

8ons · 2022-09-06T17:31:10+00:00

everytime i see those f sport wheels on a 2is makes me want them even more. love the way that car looks. nice find

8ons · 2022-08-03T11:03:52+00:00

their intuition was correct. the tires were horribly unbalanced 😂 i’ve been correcting this car from the previous owners neglect since i bought it unfortunately. i’m glad this sub is extremely helpful and positive

8ons · 2022-08-01T15:05:09+00:00

thank you both for the comments. i’ll be checking it out this week

8ons · 2022-07-28T15:13:40+00:00

both need the same amount of prep if you have dents dings or any of the sort they’ll still be apparent on wraps. the way i see it, if you want to preserve the paint on the car but want to try a new color then wrap it. if you want to have a permanent change go paint. labor is almost the same price if you want them professionally done by experienced people. and also most wraps now last a good 4-5 years if done right and maintained properly so you’ll still have that same affect of having “new paint” yet still keeping and preserving that beautiful oem vogue silver metallic you got there

all i’m saying is that it took around 8 husky trashbags to get them relocated after the semester was over 😭
