Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

I dunno about all cars but aren't they supposed to pop out when they're hot enough?

Not ours. They just stay there and overheat if left in there too long. But then again, i have never used it.

That's.. dumb. :mellow: All of them should pop out when they're ready. It just makes sense.

So. Question time. How tall can you be and fit in a NA Miata comfortably?

 

Because. I kinda want one.

I hear 6 foot is ok if you remove the sun visors.

Me being 6'5" I figured it was a long shot. But worth a shot

You could probably fit in the ND Miata. It probably is enough for you to sit fine

Yeah. But I'm not a huge fan of the aesthetics. Same for the NC. 

 

I'll probably get the Prelude and turbo it, or maybe even a Neon SRT 4.

At that point, your head is over the windshield.

I am 6'4 and my eyes were over the windscreen of a miata at the autoshow.

Gonna be getting a New Edge model.

 

This style:

Love that style. It is one generation after mine. Mine is considered new edge also if I am not mistaken. Cause it's not a fox body.

94-04 are called SN-95. 99-04 are New Edge models because of the design name. Fun fact: SN-95 is still a Fox Body because it's only a slightly modified Fox platform.
