My turbo miata and my old 98 legacy gt- pictures and videos inside!
Its been a while since i have posted on here, and its been because of my turbo miata. I figured were all car enthusiast and think you all would enjoy this.

My roots for car modifications came from my old 98 legacy gt:
Enjoy!

wow, I'm not big on Miatas, but yours is SICK as f***! WOW, well done... Do you drive around the street with that seat? Or do you swap seats for street driving? What do you change when you switch to "track mode"? Looks like you have some track specific mods and thats why I ask.
Your legacy looks amazing!!! Just perfect in my opinion! Even though you have stock wheels, you have managed to make it look PERFECT which is hard to do, so mucho props to you man! There's only a certain level of greatness that you can achieve with a car that has stock wheels, but you've managed to milk every ounce of greatness out of that car. I wouldn't change a single thing (minus the lic plate, looks weird being just slightly to the left like that... Go all the way to the left or leave it in the middle). Sexy!
What have you done to that legacy? Any engine mods? What's done in terms of suspension?

Then i got a sparco circuit for track only. The car now gets towed to and from track days and hardly driven on the street. (pretty much only to street tune the fuel map)
As for the legacy, I didn't have any under the hood or go-fast parts on it. The car only a rebuilt motor which was only done b/c of a head-gasket failure. The window tint, tein s-tech springs and some painted wheels and calipers. At the time i wasn't too into cars. I ended up selling the suby to study abroad after high school. I got the miata and discovered a new found glory of speed and haven't turned back.
Vlad must also be 18psi

I used to have a '93 miata, but unfortunately at the time I couldn't afford to put a turbo in it. I was able to take a ride in a miata with a FM stage 2 and oh my what a hoot. I also saw FM's Track Dog running around Thunderhill. That car was insane!
