The top I used to own and got it back from a family friend. It was in absolutely perfect shape. Came on an 04 and was used 2 times before the car was totaled and it was not on the car.
So ill paint it and then my other hardtop I may sell. And then eventually sell this one too.
This is so cool, can't wait for it to be finished.
1990 Miata, she was red but now she is Spirit Green!

Your telling me I cannot wait to drive it.
Love it! Where'd you source the trans mounting plate?
And on that note, wouldn't a kit for this swap be nice? A guy can dream...
Def in for mire updates when you have em.
'90 "LE" with red bits - 7/6 Flex, FM Front Bar, 14x7 +19 RPF1, PWR, SPAL, Maxim Works, Thermal R&D, HDHCSDM2, Zoom, Anvil II, 330mm mahogany Deep Corn, AC/PS delete, LE interior, attitude

I got the adapter from a lady in the uk who has kit cars that use this engine and the miata transmission.
And I thought of making all my parts twice but I don't have the garage to. So this is a fabricators swap.
But hopefully it catches on. And someone makes a kit
There was only one KL mazda at the meet this weekend, made me sad:
Wish I could of made it. We had a death in the family. But ill make one when the car gets back on the road.
Thank you for the invite Roy.
I'm sorry to hear that, my prayers are with you and your family.

well i have been a little busy but today i spend some time on my oil pan. Here is the first design.
decided against it because well it had too many seams. So here is what i ended up with today. I will start the pickup/baffles here in the next couple days.
well i have been getting some things done to the car but nothing i really that i took pictures of until today. i mocked up my jj_warhorse diffuser.
I was about to send you a PM, seems like it has been forever. Diffusers are sweet!
Yea it has been a while my oil pan has went through a few different models.
I have also moved the car into a bigger garage at a friends house so more should be getting done to it. Once I get the oil pan done, everything after that should be easy to knock out.
I have told myself that I will not rush the swap. I do not want to do anything twice so I am doing each thing how I would want it done and sometimes that requires spending more money than I planned. Which does not bother me.
It just takes a little longer. But I think in the end it will be worth it. I have decided that the car will get a centrifugal supercharger. Still have not picked one. It may get a rotrex or a vortech. But that will be after it has been running for a while.
The car will still be a street car but it will get full Aero and a simple interior. And will get tracked.
It will be worth it. Take your time.
WOW this Thread needs some updates. I will just leave this here until i get some more time to update.
Thread title needs a change too. The v6 is no longer mine and jessie From Warhorse Performance purchased it from me. And is taking to a level i could not of. I copped out and went ls1.
Ls1 with 243 ls6 heads. Gmpp yellow springs. Ls2 intake,injectors,rails.
V8r Racing pan
V8r mountless subframe installed.
Also i am going with a insane wheel and tire setup. Its going to require some cutting and flares.
Here is where i am at with a flat roll so far. Its going to need more. 17x9.75 +20mm with a 235/40/17 but i plan on going to the bfg rival 245/40 if i can.
