These look immaculate! Looking forward to installed pics!
Alright the seats are in and my review is here!

So the seats feel identical to regular factory seats when sitting in them but when you corner you do not move because the side bolsters are really firm.

The seats quality is stunning, the leather smells brand new and there's not a spot of grime anywhere on the seats. putting them in though was a pain in the ass because the "rails" are actually tiny aluminum blocks that unfortunately were a little tweaked but with some man power and adrenaline of wanting to sit in them they went in just fine.

They look very race car from the back. I'm thinking about harnesses but idk yet (Shoutout to my dads 72 Datsun 510 and my brothers 96 Nissan 240, those cowards).
And here is the money shot.

Thats awesome will look great in your Roadster.
I had a set of white ones on my White miata then sold them for a pair of black ones. Always wanted red though.
Hopefully these came with the Mazdaspeed mounting rails ??

To keep the MazdaSpeed train chugging I found some Mazdaspeed towhooks painted in some type of Hulk green. I am probably going to repaint them red because that is how they came originally.

Mazdaspeed everything!

Well the car is a mazdaspeed car and I feel the only parts I should try to find and put on are mazdaspeed. And when it’s done, with every part where it should be it’ll be a time capsule that car fans and miata fans can look at and see what culture was like back then. My goal is to have mazda recognize the car and show what mazda was to the rest of there dedicated fans.
PS: Wheels
So this week a lot of cool stuff will be arriving, most of the interior refresh bits are on the way. The first being a shipment from CarMakeCorns (Thank you Kadin!). Picked up a new OEM HVAC panel and a CMC suction cup do-hickey.

And for the daily are my long awaited plates for the Elusive Mazdaspeed 4 point roll bar i have hanging in the garage. Thanks to UPS for tearing into the box when i purchased the rollbar from CMC months ago they had lost the plates and hardware for it. But thanks to Kadin he had new plates made and gave me new hardware. Thanks Again!!!!

Carbing was the maker of the Mazdaspeed Tow Hooks, (they contracted them out) ive never seen green though, when I ordered my Mazdaspeed hooks they came in Red
MaRcOp01o (10-08-2018)
Carbing is the real MVP when it comes to Mazdaspeed. and the owner of the hooks I had bought it from said when he bought them the guy before had painted them green and i had plans to repaint them red to stay factory correct. Im just surprised this set of hooks has gone through 4 owners and still has the paper work.

So I recently hinted at getting a set of wheels and here they are. A beautiful set of MS01Rs. This was a clutch eBay find and I was super surprised at the price they were asking for the condition a definite deal in my books.(This is a set, I just had limited lighting out side so I took one wheel into the man cave.)

As you can see these wheels are pretty old, 2/23/1996 that's older than me (4/21/1997) and its great to see they all still have the stickers still sticking.

And I'm torn between which tires I should choose. Please comment your decisions. BTW something Track/Road tire is what I'm looking for.
