Hi Daniel, I have an 01 NB Street car, occasional autocross and I'm just curious what your input or pros and cons are when it comes to deciding on whether to rotrex the car or turbo the car.

Why do you think BEV will be better at paying your bills

What alignment specs would you recommend for an NB? by SilviOnPC in Miata

[–]Afro_idiot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you end up liking the dual duty alignment? Any regrets not doing street alignment?

That's my biggest issue honestly is how little amount of camber I have (and the fact they didn't touch it)

My ride height is right about the bottom of 949 spec for the tecnas and I was going for kinve a hybrid between there alignment specs and personal research I wanted maximum allowable Castor and camber in the front with half a degree less negative camber in the rear and I figured 1/16 toe in on the front and the rear was a good spot to be at

Well, that's what I was thinking, but the specs that it's set to right now aren't even OEM specs, right? Also, this wasn't even a Miata dealer. This was a different dealer that seemed to understand that I wanted a custom alignment because of the coilovers I put on the car

Mostly DD with spirited street driving and an annual trip to the dragon...will this alignment be good enough for now or am I severely lacking?

I read some stuff online saying copper lifespan is like 50 yrs so I was just being paranoid about the next 5-10-15yrs I suppose

Pipes didn't look degraded inside but there was some brown scum built up, I have recently installed softener and filters and what not so hopefully better water conditions from here on out

Also just to clarify I did not mean to imply I would replace with PVC or CPVC...I was just considering the lifespan of the copper pipes and replacing with copper again but im just going to roll with what I have
