JF's 92 Miata

Little update:

Got my coilovers on ... Started at 12pm ended at 2am
But happy with them so far. Also added a shift knob from PbM.
Wheels should be on next week, maybe a few more goodies.

(sorry for the crappy photos)

That is a massive shift...handle. haha. Top pic looks dee-lish, but it's too far away.

What happened with the suspension install?

It's actually adjustable. Very cool!
Yeah, I'll try to get some pics tonight man


Well I literally could not figure out how to get the stock strut out. I even rented a spring compressor and it made things worse lol. It was mainly because the balljoint was tapered and I couldn't get it loose. First strut took about 6 hours lol. But the rest weren't bad. I could never find a good write-up either.

Miata suspension... makes our cars seem like childs play. haha

Not that serious, but it's still a little more work. My friends 2nd gen miata was a ***** because you have to disconnect almost everything in the suspension to get enough room to pull the coil out.

your drop looks amazing though

Exactly. I miss the ease of accord suspension lol. I was unbolting literally everything I saw and still had issues. Glad it's over with though!

Thanks! It'll be lower soon. I got some meaty tires on these 14's ha.

Oh my god I did this with my CL and created a nightmare, but I did something even the worlds greatest moron wouldn't do and unbolted the top hat while it was in the wheel well still............................... That one strut took me 14 hours to get out. One of the worst experiences of my life lol.

Anyway, the drop looks DOPE! the miata looks wayyy more aggressive.

Hoping to get the fenders rolled, tires mounted, and wheels put on this week.
Been getting cold and rainy weather so we'll see how things go.

That looks like a clean little car. Can't wait to see it with the wheels on.

I saw a blue one of these the other day with the OEM BBS meshies and thought of you
I can't wait to see this thing with the new wheels. Is there any sort of lip kit for the Miatas? The front looks a bit to rounded as of now IMO.
