What have you done to your Miata today?

did you figure out the fitment on the wheels?

Yeah, they clear the caliper easily but the driver front rubs. The passenger front only rubs on hard lefthand turns. The rear clear without having to roll the fender but I'll probably raise the car up about 1/2" in the front and 3/4" in the rear. I have more problems scraping the front chin spoiler and scraping my subframe bracing.
 
I'd probably rub on the passenger side if you had someone sitting in the seat too. Raising the ride height's just going to band-aid it. It's still going to rub on hard corners. Is it on the inside of the fender or the bottom? Can you take a pic of where it's rubbing? On the miata, I was rubbing on the screws / tabs where the inner fender liner is screwed in to the outer fender. I was able to, by hand, push those tabs up out of the way. They haven't tourched them since. If the NB is similar to the NA in that respect, it may be worth checking out :)
 
I'm rubbing in the same spot. The driver side is about 1/2" lower than the passenger side, which is why it's rubbing only on one side. I haven't gotten the car corner balanced since I wanted to wait until I got the wheels on and wanted to test out the current ride height (which is too low).
 
3 minutes worth of golfball sized hail have left the Miata with a nicely torn top and golf ball-like finish (the P5 is much worse). Pics will come sooner or later.

Since the top is shot anyway, I think I'll tape it up for a few months until I decide to finally fork out the grand for that black hard top I've been wanting :).
 
that sucks about the hail. If you have a few months, you can get some deals dude. i got mine for $500..
 
*******-A! That does suck!!! Man...hail....hate it.
I recently saw some deals on tops on ebay! And hey...WTH, why not get insurance to spring for a nice hardtop?
 
Checked out the AV - Wheeldude (Zoeb) and saw the Auto-X by Rota.
What do you guys think?

I wouldn't keep the lip red though...I'd get it powdercoated to match the car.
Istill like the SM 513's though...alot.
Thoughts?
 
The best way is through the MCI plan. You know, friends and family. The best deals are on the ones that aren't advertised. And someone like you wouldn't have a problem with a paint issue, so you can scope out ones that need a little TLC too that might get passed up by others (mine was black primer).
 
w00t! The CSP Miata passed emissions with flying colors today. I dialed in a cruise AFR between 14.7 and 14.9 just before the test. This was the first time I've had it checked with the [oil burning] 1.8 and MS. Yay!
