No more sonic upgrades for me

[Goneau]

Hey guys, I'm just regrettably informing everyone that once I get my coilovers and wheels all set by July, I'm done with putting money into the sonic. I just got a sweet deal on a Miata from a friend and should be in a 92 Miata as a toy car by august. I'll still be active on the forums but I think my money will go into something a little less practical and a lot more fun :]
I'm not getting rid of the sonic by any means, i just want a project car.

You lucky sob. I want one of then things sooooooo bad

I'm already planning the turbo kit
250 whp in a 2200 lb Miata is like a $3,000 project.... can't beat it.

it's not definite yet, because if he gets an offer before i come up with 2600 it's gone
but if he sells it, im saving for one regardless, i fell in love when i drove it. 100whp never felt so good haha

Oh stop we all know you want a 150HP 1000LB Cummins in a 4000-5000lb truck more than anything. :banana:

Just don't be like this guy when you test fire it up!

This is how you set your V8 Miata on fire in your garage - Autoblog

I hear ya I put in the shift bushings (a gift). After that the mod bug started kicking in but I held off.

I'm not doing anything else to this car tune included, even with the tune I'll be over that novelty in a week.

Plus I'll likely only have the thing another year or so anyway

When need for speed hits I have my EVO and Forester XT or I can go steal dads T/A or Vette

I still love this car though

i still love this car as well, and it looks like this miata idea will be put off for a while as well. fml. im going to be super broke for a while. But i just would rather have something that if i dump 5k into you can actually tell
