Just got her towed today, its my summer project car. She will need front fenders hood bumper and left door. Also need header+intake. The car has coilovers and a shortthrow shifter, performance plugs+wires. I know some of you have these little miatas so any help in locating some of these parts would be greatly appreciated.

Since i dont really want to drift with the beemer this would be a good

Nice find. I'll bet someone on here has what you need, or atleast part of it

. Or can point you in a good direction at least.

Looks mean as-is. I wouldn't change it all, don't even wash it. Just get it running and flog the crap outta of it.

I got a factory exhaust manifold, err its for a 90 model though i think it is the same. I also have some random moter parts and a broke diff if you want it.

I got some work done on the car today, basically took the fenders off and the front pumper off. Going to buy new fenders hood this weekend and hopefully get going on that. Also buying a header for the car of "ebay" for $98+$39SH I also have some molding and bondo work ahead of me on the rear quater panels. But i had a pleasent surprise when i took the fenders off i learned that the mazda came with kw coil overs. ill post pics of the progress later on and of the kw's because im not sure which version they are.
