After an extensive search, I found a 1991 Miata in excellent condition just across the border of Wisconsin in NorthernIllinois. I bought it sight unseen and was very pleased as it was in much better condition then I observed from the number of photographs reviewed. NO RUST. It was completely stock when received and with out any issues. I drove it a little and realized that I wanted better handling and more power. I had my trusted mechanic install new brakes and engine belts including timing belt. He conducted a visual inspection of the head and valve train and said that all is good. He also noted a minor leak of oil and determined that it was coming from the transmission front seal. Ifound a NEWOEM hardtop in Detroit, drove over and picked up, returned and had it custom painted to a matching silver. I moved the Miatainto my shop for a couple of months and proceeded toadd aftermarket components listed below;
Other Extra's included:
Two Minor Issues. The oil leak from the Transmission. (small patch about the size of a Quarter on shop floor in a2-3 weekstime. Kind of like a New Harley many years ago). Air conditioner works well but the pump is a little noisy, Perhaps clutch.
I am done with this project and moving on to the next. Need room in my shop and money to buy good stuff for the next one. So need it all picked up when paid for. If you are near and want to come and look at it, you are welcome. In fact I strongly suggest it. Call 920-924-3071 Leave message if needed
There is nothing better then the Mega squirt computer system. Its like a computer game, Put your lap top on the passenger seat and tune on the go.
I have built twin Turbo 482 race boat engines, installed 2of themin a boat and could not hang on coming up on plane. It was a rush. But not as much of a rush as a little Miata,10 lbs of boost, and the scream of the Jackson Supercharger in second gear. Try it you will like it!
With all of the extra's it is best if the Miatais picked up with a truck and trailer.
