    further pursuit of satisfaction

    I guess one miata is not enough for my satisfaction ...so I got myself another one

    Let's get right to it then.

    Pretty much how my second miata looked like when I got it










    MIATA...incredibly fun to drive - as that is its only purpose for being.

    First order of business was to clean the engine bay. I hate dirty engine bays







    I focused on the interior first and spruced it up a bit

    the MS body kit will be tossed out and exterior will look a bit subtle.

    It has come out of the paint shop and awaiting sanding down...keep you posted

    Why would you get rid of the MS body kit?? the car is unique with that body kit.

    I am with Hyper on this one... you got the "everything but the kitchen sink" interior, the exterior should be unique as well.

    Or just send me the bodykit... I'd rock it! ;)

    Fortunately here, this body kit is common. Practically, the MS chin would not clear most of the bumps here given that the car is now 22" pavement to fender

    I must say, except for the center caps, the RK-R's look good!

    I've been a strong...but silent critic of Rota's for as long as I can remember. If friend's talk about buying Rota's or if I'm asked what wheels to recommend, I'm usually the first to discourage them and recommend buying JDM surplus wheels instead (which by the way we have a lot this side of the world ) But these wheels man, they're hard to resists, ehehe
