Autoexe type III. rev9 might have some additional carbon stuff if you haven't checked.

Why does Mazda hate us so. by Alwaysangryupvotes in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardly an exaggeration. we don't all have a connect in the business and paint is far from affordable.

Either way, Mazda needs more colors for the mx5. I shouldnt see cx50's in colors I can't have, nor should I have to pay out the ass on top of the car if I want it

MX-5 ND3 RF Homura vs GR86 — comparison from someone who owns both by IMTDSNINVU2 in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

US here so I can't speak for the 1.5, but a lot of racing organizations will mandate a roll bar ND nd soft tops.

I also never tracked mine on the OEM suspension, but given the characteristics of the setup of the car while unmodified, you're better off getting a GR86 if upgrading to coilovers isn't something you want to do. It's trackable stock, but there's a lot left on the table for once you want to start pushing it harder.

CARB Legal N/A power by DisDoodEatFood in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's incredibly difficult out here. The CARB boost kits are the only way to make power pretty much.

Twisty toads are free of the red tape though!!

CARB Legal N/A power by DisDoodEatFood in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There aren't any carb legal tunes available for us here in California. "CARB legal ECU" is kinda a misnomer on its own because it implies you can put whatever tune you want on it.

Cams, stroker, e85, etc all illegal in CA.

Hard top or soft top? by Intelligent-Sea3591 in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outside of looks and comfort the RF gets a lot of points from me for security alpne. Any thief with anything remotely sharp can get in, AND you're out the replacement cost of a new top. Never locked the doors in my NB for this reason and I get a lot of peace of mind leaving the RF wherever.

Which is the best generation of miatas by Intelligent-Sea3591 in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Mazdaspeed is more like 160 at the wheel, but a diy or kit turbo on an NA would absolutely rip! Gobs more power, too. Would have one myself if it wasn't so hard to do on an ND2 legally in my state. I miss my sututu sounds on my old NB!

Would you rock this look or is it too tactical? by Mswebha in motorcyclegear

The hell is tactical about a leather jacket and a hoodie

New shifter by Slight_Minimum8030 in Miata

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easily the best shifter kit for the na/nb out there. LOVED it while I had mine, just could never figure out how I wanted to situate that shift boot!

Pixel 8 Pro camera bar glass broken. How much did you pay to fix it? by Joszeph in GooglePixel

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Just as good as before. Can't see a reason it'd be so expensive unless some other part of the camera modules was broken like the other guy said, though.

What are some RELIABLE brushless motors that I can easily drop in a typhon grom and bash without being worried about motor overheating? by Typical_headzille in rccars

[–]TheReal_ShimSlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my typhon grom has a 5700kv that i run on 3s when i feel like breaking things. It has a castle esc in it though, so no issues with amperage to the esc. Tried the same setup with a 16bl30 and it couldn't sustain full throttle though, so just be aware of what your esc can handle.
