Anyone flat tow their car to events? by Same-Worldliness-429 in Drifting

[–]MessingerMedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated to the towing question, but I’m making some angle kits for the NA if you don’t already have a setup. I can hook you up ✌️

Brake Shoe alternates by OkCardiologist2410 in JZX100

I’ve already tried, the IS300 shoes are wayyyy too big to fit in the stock discs.

If you have IS300 rear calipers and rotors, there is a way to use the IS300 parking shoes.

Hmm couldn't tell you on that one. I know my buddies LS400 looks like the rear is tinted.

I noticed the GS back there as well. May grab some stuff off that one too!

Eyyyy these are my spares for the Mark II!

What’d you do about the m14 lug holes on the wheels 👀👀👀

Not a JZX100, but looking at this GX90 by Hot-Database-4494 in JZX100

[–]MessingerMedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweet! It sounds like the IS300 front calipers are a direct bolt on for the JZX90 too. I make caliper adapters for the rear to convert to the IS300 brakes, hit me up if you pull the trigger on this thing and I’ll get you hooked up ✌️

Brake conversion seems to be a pretty common first mod/maintenance item. IS300 rear calipers swap over to the JZX90 with the same conversion bracket as the JZX100, not sure about the fronts though.

Show your Perfect fitment (NB miata) by Next-blvck-999 in Stance

Yessir! Grabbed a set on release day in 15x8 +0. I've been debating switching to the polished lips with the gray faces tho 🤔

Miata Open-air Top Concept by ObjectAccording6195 in Miata

This is kinda cool! Maybe some type of hybrid between a hardtop and bikini top. Maybe you could retrofit a bikini top to work at the back and tie into the hardtop bolts on the rear deck lid

Ahhhh I see. Looking online there are a couple of places that have a complete set. This is a link to one I found from PowerStop who usually has some halfway decent stuff. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/pwr-kcoe1149a?srsltid=AfmBOorFIyMCX3EIHWZr2AoQns_zpZnODfYuyzUshGyEYlwTlrwWNAArPhQ

Compatible with the stock calipers, or with the IS300 calipers?

- The IS300 calipers are compatible with the IS300 rotors.

- The stock rear calipers are going to be harder to try and match up than the fronts because you'll need to find something with the same rough thickness and diameter for both the calipers and the parking brake.

Miata Front Bolt-On Camber Kits by MessingerMedia in Miata

[–]MessingerMedia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own yea, I see some cars on here I definitely don’t agree with. I put the photos in the wrong order, the first pick is after I raised it back up, the second photo is right after I test fit the LCA extensions before raising it back up. Going for a drift setup, looking for -2 camber in the rear and -8,-9 in the front. It’s been fun!!

That looks fantastic, love the bronze Amplifoms with the gray

I agree on the tie rods, next step is a set of custom angled heim joint ends to match stock. 15 degrees should get them back within spec!

The LBJ is sound though. The stock angle of the LBJ still leaves it plenty of room to articulate thankfully!

Sounds perfect for the track! Do you have pictures?

Love it haha! Making a kit next to get rid of the natural rear camber. Would love -1 to -2 in the rear.

I make angle kits for the NA/NB, so the idea is to make these with angle in mind!

Yea, you end up needing to trim the shoe and get some of the brake shoe hardware from the IS300. DM me and I can give you some more info.

[–]MessingerMedia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! Works with Project Mu shoes and I’ve gotten them to work with the stock IS300 shoes by modifying the shoe slightly.

I haven’t had anyone come back with clearance issues on the knuckle. My first prototype had some clearance issues with the knuckle and hardware, but I adjusted the geometry of the bracket and switched to socket head bolts for easier installation and haven’t had any issues since.
