My Miata Project

AJ

110 HP of FURY!
So as some know I'm waiting to get word on a specific car right now, but even if that fall through I have my eye on a few more. In the mean time I'm getting some items on the list of "pull the trigger" once the car is firmly parked in the garage.

Much will be for weight and safety. The goal of the car will be the track. I'm going to attempt to Rally cross the car in stock form at least once to see how I like it, but the reality is my main goal will be to have this thing set up for weekend cruises and road courses. I'm gunning for 300whp before the end of next year, and 400whp in 2-3 years. Will I make it... who knows, just I have the goal to try for.

So on to the parts list:

Carbon Fiber Hard Top. http://www.aerokits.net/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=75_195_1240&products_id=1896
A hard top for me is a must.

Exhaust. Thinking http://www.flyinmiata.com/index.php?deptid=4503&parentid=0&stocknumber=06-18000

Engine wise I'm going to stick to all motor this year. If the motor is solid I will need to make the decision on building a 302 over the next winter or building up a 1.8 (both will be taking on a power adder, just not sure if that will be a turbo or SC yet (good possibility if I rock a 302).

Other than that I'll focus on brakes and suspension once I have the car in the garage and evaluate all the condition.
