Hello to all fellow and former Noobs, my name is Cameron and I will be 24 in November. I reside in Memphis, Tennessee USA. Memphis is commonly overlooked when considering hallmark cities of American culture, although it is the home of Elvis and the largest Bass Pro shop in the world. If that doesn't scream USA, then I don't know what does!

As you may have already guessed, I arrive here in the possession of one of the greatest affordable sports car ever manufactured. Currently I have a 94'NA Base in Classic Red and a 2001 NB2 LS in Crystal White. The NB came second and could be considered a beater by most standards. I bought it to feel something while the NA has been under the knife.

Similar to many of you, I purchased my first Miata simply to indulge in my wildest dreams of being a shi**y mechanic! The powers that lie deep within the Miata's innocent pop up headlights have taken hold of me, and now I am on a quest for more! I have been a long time lurker of almost every online resource for Miata knowledge available to the general public, but now I have my own questions to ask.

I am doing a full rebuild of the 94' NA. Although I have examined hundreds, if not thousands of forum threads, advice, build walkthroughs, FM Facebook lives, etc., I am still in desperate need of some personal guidance from all levels of experienced and knowledgeable Miata owners.

Excited to be here and whoever reads this, have a fantastic day. Also pics of my Miatas below (NA currently torn apart in my garage).

NA the day i got her November 2023
