Sup guys, new to the forums but use them plenty already. I live in the north OC/West IE area in California.
I drive a 2000 miata base model with few mods done:
-Exedy Stage 1 Clutch + F1 Cromoly flywheel
-01+ header swap
-TFS Differential
-03+ sport brakes
(basically, picked at a shinsen)
I work part time so mods are tied to budget but i hope can pull off a good diy turbo set up within the next year...

rear control arms were slightly warped when i bought it so in went a new rear subframe with controls arms + Energy Suspension bushings. this was after playing in some mud on a road which was under construction![](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/smile.gif)

the bushings actually weren't installed but i did use the top part of the boot from my old open diff that did have the energy suspension bushings installed and use a hybrid setup with the oem part

during the brake installation we found out that my wheels were too small (@14") so i bought the 15" versions in order that the calipers and rotors would fit
