I got them from Grip Garage
Haha man you know it! Although probably not until next year... Need to save up for school first unfortunetly
thats alright.. i cant wait to see them when you get em on the car.. you got a whole year to think of which wheels you want too..
welp with all the smoke around today.. thanks Canada!! i didnt get the tails back on the car yet.. tomorrow i will..
ohh yeah Post #2600
post *****.
i changed my rim order to enkie rpf1's 18x9 +35. wonder how they will look.
thats all i did today
225/40 till i order up some ball joints, then it will be 235/40 or 245/35. i would need the spc ball joints before i make any decisions.
will be 5 mm less extension then this. which is not much. but with a little camber it will be perfect.
going to also get the rpm springs, as i want stiffness over drop.

Hey...anyone have like a hidden hitch on their MS6?
I'm curious as to this...here's my reasoning...I like driving the Miata.
My wife does not.
I forsee my wife liking to drive MS6.
This I do not mind.
What I do mind is not being able to have the Turboyata AND the MS6 at a meet at the SAME time.
If say...I got a hidden hitch and a 2-wheel dolly (from UHaul or something similar) to take the Miata out and about...whould that suffice? Surely the 6 can't tug a small 1 car trailer...thoughts?
Don't say have her drive the Speed and I take the Miata...have you sat in a Miata w/a roll bar for 1+ hours on a road trip or sat in traffic? My seats don't recline anymore due to the roll bar.

LOL.
As long as its a hidden hitch, its cool.
The wife is getting an X5...I DON'T want to lug that boat around w/us if I want to tow the miata. Lame!
QFT:
It is odd, but in the US they don't want us to tow with smaller cars. Maybe it's a way to get us to buy larger trucks and SUVs.
In England, the MPS (Mazdaspeed3) is rated to tow 1300kg. That's 2860 lbs. In the US they have a tow rating of 0 lbs.
They don't offer any different equipment that makes it a better tow vehicle, it is marketing.
Sooooo...yeah. My miata weighs less than that...s***...someone towed a f**kin' boat!

QFT2:
It thinks it's a truck. (Over 3k miles with my 2001 Bayliner following it while in 5th gear... and all sorts of rally conditions like washed up river beds, gravel roads, and beaches.)
I mean really!?
LOLOLOLOL!

Yessum!!! I need to relcoate the port though.. I'd kick the snot out of it where it is now if I left it plugged in. I'd love to monitor what's going on.
What do I need for stage 2? I have CPE CAI and a test pipe (but it's sitting in my garage).
