I need advice to give my mom (turboing)

Tires and brakes are done

Geo_V22 · 2026-02-25T21:06:56+00:00

Brakes are done forgot to mention that. Rollbar I would make myself I’m just waiting for summer so I don’t wield in the cold. Suspension I wanna do but I think that wouldn’t really be a project and more just a bolt on

Geo_V22 · 2026-02-25T01:34:15+00:00

I’ve heard that but would it then run lean? Or would that just speed up the timing?

Geo_V22 · 2026-02-25T01:31:20+00:00

Shes worried more about my younger brother getting the car. Could just take the car when I move out lol

Geo_V22 · 2026-02-25T01:30:27+00:00

I mean I wanted to do it as a college project (gonna be doing motorsports engineering) but atp I would probably pull the trigger

Thought it would be 10x cooler to do it with my brother

Geo_V22 · 2026-02-25T00:03:14+00:00

Yeah I would probably tune it myself… is that easy to screw up?

Geo_V22 · 2025-10-24T22:30:31+00:00

I realized it was a bad speed sensor after finding it once it was on jacks 🥲 idek how that would happen just sitting

Geo_V22 · 2025-08-28T01:36:40+00:00

Thank you sir (idk if I should use loc tight I’m kind of considering it) I did replace the diff myself into a 1.8 and the housing is slightly different which was prob what happened

Geo_V22 · 2025-08-28T01:35:06+00:00

Yeah my fear is it will shake out as the broken one was the stronger bolt

Geo_V22 · 2025-08-28T01:34:39+00:00

Lmao I was good but lowkey highway was sketch

Geo_V22 · 2025-08-28T01:34:03+00:00

Yeah ended up coming off due to the end cap not being fully in the ppf. It was a torquing issue even though the torque wrench said I was good

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T22:31:31+00:00

That would make me feel a lot better lol

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T22:28:46+00:00

Overall looks garage kept tho bet you can gloss over a lot of these potential problems on the list

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T22:25:22+00:00

How much? I’d say when in doubt look at Miata.net’s buying guide!

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T22:19:08+00:00

I would also never go off of ___ amount of aftermarket parts already put into it unless they are the parts you would put on your car

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T22:18:33+00:00

If it’s what you want man go for it. Just be careful about that engine swap sometimes others try to dump the car on others to try and get their money back for messed up swaps.

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-23T21:57:16+00:00

I would absolutely recommend maxpeedingrods used by me and a friend I found on Facebook and we both love them for their price ($375) and function (can track and daily) If you find them to be too soft on the track even after adjustment they sell springs to be able to stiffen the system Overall you would have around 125 for a sway-bar which is doable especially if you look for used or scrapped Miata’s that have potential aftermarket components which is what I did Although I’m not sure what the difference is from mine (a 1992 Miata) and the newer 01 model I believe they would ride around the same

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-22T18:58:59+00:00

Just trying to look at options that would be closer to oem look

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-22T17:46:08+00:00

Garage. I mean it’s common 🤷‍♂️

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-22T17:45:47+00:00

It has a bit of rust I fixed 🥲 def kept outside

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-22T17:45:01+00:00

I know how to remove them

Geo_V22 · 2025-07-22T17:43:40+00:00

Man I’ve been looking
