    Xidas for NC!

    NGL, as someone who will likely be an NC owner in the future, this is really awesome news:

    I LOVED these on my NA and NB Miatas. Fantastic around town, confidence-inspiring on the track, I would know these could be a game-changer.

    NC prices bottomed out in 2019 but they are still a great bargain. Faster, more robust, more comfortable than the NA/NB, give the same $ injection. Personally, I prefer the look of the NB over the NC but the NC2/3 do clean up nice once lowered with some fatties mounted. As cool as the 2.5 swaps are, I'm most excited about a potential K24Z3 swap. 210whp with a $500 junkyard engine on E85? Yes please.

    Slowly increasing, but still a better value for what you get compared to NA/NBs now, at least here. We got 1.8 ones here as well which are notorious for destroying conrod bearings, so a blown engine one is ideal to swap in a 2.5 from the start. Issue is that 2.5 lumps are twice as much here (if you can get one)
