Flyin Miata Strut tower brace and frame rail braces
Flyin Miata clutch "happy meal" with 13lb flywheel
Flyin miata N/A exhaust package which includes: Racing Beat 4-1 header, Magnaflow high-flow cat, and a Flyin Miata single exit stainless steel cat back exhaust
Racing Beat adjustable front and rear endlinks
new clutch slave cylinder
Mazdaspeed Miata intake cam
Hard Dog roll bar (getting this used, already wrapped in foam, and with carpeting and such that has already been cut as needed
a set of Dunlop Direzza ZII tires for the stock wheels
And a gloss plastidip kit to turn the car this color. No, it's not my ideal either, but my paint is in crap condition, and this will work as a temporary measure to hold me over while I save up for the body work and paint the car will require eventually......though interior, a set of 15x8 6UL's, and forced induction will all likely happen before that since the car is a toy rather than a show car.
Oh, and all this for less than 4k....god I love how inexpensive Miata parts are. Should go nicely with the suspension work I'm finishing up this weekend and make for a seriously fun little toy for autocross, and trips out to the hill country.

quick inquiry though: why the intake cam and frame brace? (use the pinch weld! or use a 2x4, a little wood always helps!)
hmm...i'm holding off on doing the same, just with tax returns.
i've already rebuilt all calipers/2 master cylinders/clutch slave/short shifter with bushings, and timing/cooling/ignition/idle adjust/14degree advance was done as soon as i got the car. Header back exhaust and intake followed suit rather quickly, complete with complete set of rotors/pads all around(which should have been done whilst rebuilding calipers, kinda hate doing the same thing twice).
So now I'm at the point where i'm trying to decide between going nutso on suspension or just keep it simple as is. The one last thing i have to figure out is what to do with my busted door cards.
Oh but i did just retrofit some Mini H1 projectors into glass ebay headlights, the light output is an order of magnitude better than before!!!

Intake cam adds a bit of power and still works with the stock ecu (it's higher lift but the same duration. The frame rail braces are for better chassis rigidity, I'll be adding the butterfly brace as well eventually. I got bushings and suspension last year and am in the process of finishign up their installation. Same with pads, rotors, and SS braided brake lines (figured I'd do them whiel the car was pulled apart anyway).
