MX-5 Miata

Fellow too small to see car enthusiast from Apollo here! Glad to have a new place to go.

Flat black isn't for everyone, but we like it.

OZ Leggera 7.5x17" ET45, going for that OEM+ look

I know KPowerIndustries has a K24A2 kit - I found a really cheap k24a4 junkyard engine for $200, 170k miles on it.

I want to keep it in my garage and take it apart and mess around several times as I've never worked with cars too much. It comes with a rebuild kit previous owner had gotten to busy to finish. I plan to either sell it or junk it since its mostly to learn - I'll probably look for a more popular 2.5 swap.

But hypothetically, if I wanted to swap a K24A4 odyssey engine, could I do it? I know the compression ratio is lower so might need some forced induction to go with it

The color is "Blue Crystal Metallic" an option that was only offered for about a year, approx 3000 Miatas were sold with this color. I've never done paint polishing so I bought a kit from Amazon with a ton of Chemical Guys compounds and after a TON of watching YouTube tutorials I went to work.

Drilled a hole in a hat and stuck a yi 4k action camera in there.

Still i need of lowering, but she's my 97 😊. Dealer pin stripe is original by the looks of it

Old lump out, some tidying of the engine bay to do before the turbocharged engine from my other, crashed, MX goes in

Sad to see you go, we had some great times togerger, old friend... but your turbocharged heart will live on in another

If anyone has tips on how to properly transfer the title, bill of sale etc that would be really useful!

Been waiting for an MX5 / Miata community on here. So here's my first post on Lemmy with my 95 NA. It's a work in progress after crashing my previous one

Bing image creator was used to visualise a few colour combinations. This one is my favourite (and close to its current appearance). I can upload the other ones, if anyone is interested.

How do you upload multiple images on here, though?
