    Would keep the Nakamaes. Actually, no, would do what AO suggested.

    I would put the money on the Nakamae gems, beautiful seats and the real deal.

    #1 priority is comfort.

    I’m more of a fan of custom solutions, it’s a lot harder to find the same thing in another car than an ordered product, no matter how rare. It shows initiative and vision. Can’t duplicate that. ;) I’m not bagging on anyone for their choices, just my opinion.

    Both seats are great...... but if I was in your shoes and really had to choose....
    Keep the Nakamaes.

    Come over to the house man, I have 3 sets of 93LE color seats, OEM, Nakamae, and Lotus in 93LE. Need to make room in the house, I have zero space now.

    I have plenty of storage space here in NC... and I know how to look after Nakamae seats... I'd be cheaper and more secure than a storage locker.

    Just sayin'.

    P.S.
    And if yo' parts are a State or 3 away you'd be less tempted to make sudden changes.

    Look at this Easter egg find !!!


    Happy Easter y'all !!!



    Booooooooost by Randy George, on Flickr



    So the big ticket item, it is the FMII Turbo kit (no electronics version) for a 1990-93 NA 1.6L. This kit is brand new and actually is still all in the box. I need to pull the box out of the garage and get some pics of everything, but just haven't had the time. It’s the standard GT2560R turbo offered with their kits, and note that it’s configured for a downpipe with NA8 cat (better flow). This kit has pretty much every option offered by FM at the time. The full parts list/invoice is quoted at the end of the post. Main upgrades include:
    - Stage 8 hardware
    - Hard lines for oil drain
    - Injector Dynamics 1000cc injectors
    - 19" intercooler (larger upgrade over included intercooler, not a standard FM NA6 catalog item that they offered me).

    This kit set me back over $4k plus shipping

    I knew you were selling your goodies for a reason.

    I think it is good that you went with a complete Flyin Miata package versus the eBay route that I see usually ends with nothing but problems.

    Good luck and have fun with your next adventure.
