With enough money you can practically make anything fast. But in this case I can think of wayyy more performance bang for 55k than some Miata with a bastard engine.

Pretty sure you can buy a 300zx that'll do the same as that Miata but for like 20k including car.

True, but the LS is a pretty bomb proof motor. The 300...don't even look at it wrong.

Doing what? A Miata isn't going to be able to fit very wide tires so I'd imagine it'd struggle to put the power down at the drags and want to spin out and crash anytime you go near a corner with enthusiasm.

I was thinking about getting a TL-S. Anyone know what to look out for when buying these used? I know timing belt & water pump are things to look out for and making sure the transmission fluid is changed frequently on the automatics.

Lol yeah I agree, the US bumpers look gross with that kit. 44,000 KM time capsule though, gonna spend more in resto on a cheap one (no such thing anymore) in the market to get it to this level.

i think my brother was creeping on this one for awhile

25k. if that's what you want, that's cheap. big builds cost a FORTUNE. making a 5k AE86 look like this costs more than 20, and it won't have 50k kms on it. Hope he gets asking

Ding 05-26-2019 10:34 PM

Probably needs to sell it to fix his ferrari 355
