    FS: 1992 Mega-Monster V8 Miata Sunburst Yellow (Supercharged) - No Longer Available

    FS: 1992 Mega-Monster V8 Miata Sunburst Yellow (Supercharged)

    Less than 2,000 ORIGINAL MILES! Limited Edition 1 of only 275 made!

    Custom Built by Martin Wilson (Owner) of Monster Motorsports (California)

    This 1992 Mazda Miata MX5 MEGA MONSTER 5.0L SUPERCHARGED is ultra-rare, and was built by Monster Motorsports in Escondido, CA. The transformation of the Miata began with a complete tear down to the frame to strengthen it. With custom fabricated engine and transmission mounts, as well as an array of chassis reinforcements.

    Performance, this Mega Monster Miata will run 0-60mph in a scant 3.9 seconds, and runs the quarter mile in only 12.2 seconds @ 118 mph and topping out at 175 mph.

    The engine bay was then fitted with a Supercharged 5.0L EFI Ford V8 Engine. The Kenne Bell (polished) Whipple Supercharger provides 6.5 PSI of boost to lift the power to 400hp/375tq.

    The transmission was replaced with a Ford T5 World Class 5-speed Manual Transmission in order to handle the added horsepower. Other upgrades include suspension from a Mazda RX7 R1, 5-Lug hubs, uprights, and spindles. The double wishbone suspension maintains a solid and level footprint on the road, and includes upgraded forged aluminum A-Arms, gas-charged shocks, custom rate springs, and oversized front and rear sway bars with high performance nylon bushing. A heavy-duty Ford Limited-Slip Differential was also installed in order to keep unwanted traction loss to a minimum.

    This Monster Miata also features improved brakes from the Mazda RX7-R1, with larger brake rotors, and calipers. The exterior of this Mega-Monster Miata also received some custom wide body flares and aerodynamics which include a fiberglass front bumper cover with enlarged cooling area, intake, integrated pop up headlights, and extra driving lights in the bumper. Monster Motorsports Exclusive FRP front and rear fender flares, and quarter panels, rear valance, with custom center exit exhaust. The exhaust is a stainless steel cat-back dual system. .

    Other body enhancements include a rear high raised deck-lid wing, a factory aluminum hood that has been louvered, bulged, and braced to allow for better cooling, and engine breathing. A soft top convertible and removable hardtop roof, and DOT-Approved Monster Miata 4-Point Rollbar for added safety, and body strengthening.

    The interior features Monster Motorsports black leather seating, custom match & stitched leather door panels, and boost gauge.

    Please view my photos and explore the inside and out of this car, it is a show stopper like none other!! These cars have also been featured in various Road&Track magazines, Serious inquiries only.

    At first I thought it was $3,300 and I was breaking out my emergency credit card from the safe.

    This is one of the few original Martin's Megamonsters... The supercharged car's were tested by one of the buff books in the early 90's and got sub 4.0 second 0-60 times. Like 3.6 seconds I believe. Lamborghini performance at the price of a new Honda. Unfortunate that the owner didn't get to enjoy it more.
