    Former '07 PRHT and '09 CY owner. Trading in my '11 MINI JCW for a '12 SE in white in late March/early April. Had an NA for 15 years, but sold all my Miatas before getting the MINI. Looking forward to coming back to the fold, though I will miss the power of the JCW.









    My current ride, at least for the next month or so:

    I'm an ex-JCW owner as well. Mine was a factory JCW R53 and a great car in almost every way - but the way in which it wasn't great is hard to change - FWD. Welcome back to miata-land. That yellow NC2 looks fantastic at the ride height you are running it and I really like the wheels as well.
    CURRENT: black NC PRHT - mazdaspeed springs, RacingBeat sways, FM duals, lowered seat, accelerator pedal mod.
    EX (260K km of adventures): blue NB - FM suspension, momo steering, FD OEM shift knob, cold-side intake, RacingBeat exhaust.

    I still have the wheels. I don't have the JICs anymore. I'm definitely going to be putting at least springs on the SE, as well as the Mazdaspeed by Rays wheels.

    Hey NC friends!

    Chobomb checking in. I don't really have much on the NC, as parts are still too pricey, few and far inbetween. Plus, it's my weekend car so, I've kept it kind of light and basic. I've acquired a 1990 NA6 for daily use and I've been working on that mostly. But here is what is on the NC so far:

    2006 Sport with performance package
    Winning Blue

    2009 motor with 15k
    OEM LSD
    OEM FSTB
    17x9 +45mm Enkei RPF1
    235/45/17 Toyo R1R
    Tein Flex Coilovers
    Racing Beat Front/Rear Sways
    Goodwin Race Single
    Exedy HD clutch
    Fidanza lightweight flywheel
    Joyfast shift knob

    Took a quick pic at the carwash the other day:

    Chobomb, love the winning blue. When I got mine I had no idea the car came in that color, woul'dve given the Nordic green a run for it's money as far as my choice went.

    Nice SE ya got there Phinz!

    Suspension is in the plans. Wish I still had my JIC-Alt2s. I traded the last Miata with them still on it because I was tired of swapping suspensions.

    yeah honestly that green is my fav NC1 color and also the one color I never see. I think I've seen one in person ever.

    Well the Nordic green (mine) was only in 06, like winning blue, but they switched to a highland green in 07. It wasn't a super popular color, most greens aren't. You can see in the pics kfj posted in my build thread how much the color changes depending on the light. Almost black in low light, green or almost a blue green at times.
