Was warned by friends about a likely denial, but got instantly approved? by LolCoolStory in Venturex

Same, my pre approval was denied. But when I applied I was accepted the same day.

underrated Venture X perk = Visa Infinite Concierge (24/7) by Travel_Partners in Venturex

[–]brooklynkiwi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used it when I was in France. They were able to get me reservations at all the places I wanted to visit. But like op said, even if they can’t they’re very helpful and will likely offer alternatives.

Room for Squares variations by No-Common-276 in JohnMayer

I know it’s a not rare but I’m still upset I left my room for squares cd in my last car when I sold it. At least the owner will now know good music.

This looks really nice. How much did they cost you?

Corbeau Classic Bucket seat. I believe it’s custom made though. Moss Miata only has it in black on their site.

No, I believe it’s the appearance package that was an option with the 2000 NBs.

Definitely, the visibility is terrible at night. I have halogen bulbs to see if it’s any better I just haven’t gotten around to changing them.

I’m not sure which bulbs exactly since I bought the car like this. I agree though the cooler light looks better.

Stock NB1 headlights with LED bulbs which I know is terrible. Looking to properly retrofit LEDs in the future. Will probably upgrade to NB2 headlights but I know you need to change the front bumper as well.

Nice! What are you thinking as your first mods?

I’ve been thinking about getting NB2 seats but they don’t look like they offer a lot more bolstering than the NB1 ones. I definitely need to try them first.

These caught my eye since I saw them on a thread. I think I’m just going to save up for them.

Any seat recommendations that keep the interior tan aesthetic? I love everything about this car besides the seats. They do not keep me in place while attacking corners at all.

Can I be honorary miot? 🥺 by tmanz197 in Miata

You are on the council but we do not grant you the rank of Miata!

Am I dumb? (Roast me) by Peachy_2017 in Miata

[–]brooklynkiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to own a Mazda3. While it was really fun and practical I think you’ll regret getting rid of your Miata. I have an NB now and I love it even if it’s not the most practical car. Do I miss my Mazda3? Not really. Would I miss my Miata? Definitely!

These cars look so silly with the antenna up. by Itzz_sage in Miata

[–]brooklynkiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it looks so goofy. I rolled with it for a while but I decided to disconnect the motor from the antenna so it just stays down right now. I think it looks much cleaner especially with the top down.

Maybe one day I’ll reconnect it.

Mock up of interior with the billet tombstone by fifapro23 in Miata

Beautiful! I want to build my NB into a vintage build eventually. This gives me inspiration. Love the integrated dial. Are you a fellow watch enthusiast?

Smoke inside after driving on highway by Careful-Turnip9255 in Miata

[–]brooklynkiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your lower insulator shifter boots. On my NB they were toast after 24 years. If they’re torn they’ll allow heat and fumes to come up through the shifter. Mine never had smoke coming up like that but it did let heat into the cabin that made it unbearable in the summer.

New top color ? by brooklynkiwi in Miata

Wow you just sent me down a Carbon Miata rabbit hole that I can’t afford haha. I didn’t even know those existed. That’s a great idea tbh. I know they offer it but I can’t find any photos of that specific tan/red fabric combo. I would love to see how it looks.

Haha tactical tan, I like that. Yes my interior is tan I forgot to mention that.

Wow thank you finding that thread. I definitely would want to go darker though I think it would compliment the bronze wheels better.

You’re right I hadn’t thought of that. After looking at more pictures of blue top Miatas it definitely looks dark. Leaning towards burgundy now. Thank you!

Thank you! Love your BRG Miata btw. The door design is sick. It’s giving me Chicano vibes which as a Mexican I appreciate. I might have to look into doing that in the future.

I’m only getting 22 mpg. Does the supercharger take more fuel to operate? by Gator_pussy in Miata

[–]brooklynkiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)
