I'm currently building essentially this, but probably isn't the power most people are looking for.

Subject is a super clean 99.

Mechanicals
Remove PS, keep AC and CC
RB header, RB midpipe, RB muffler
K&N Intake
Junk2 TB
5A intake cam
BP5A ecu
Q-Max reroute
Emissions removed
Fuel system converted to return style to keep ECU happy
Xidas/Baller Bilsteins (I removed Xidas from the car in favor of Baller Bilsteins)
SadFAP durrlin control arm bushings
V8R RUCAs
V8R aluminum rack bushings
MR delrin diff bushings
V8R 62A billet motor mounts
Sport brakes/Master/Booster/949 lines
RB 1.25" front bar, MSM rear, 949 endlinks all around
ACT HDSS/ACT Pro-Lite flywheel/949 clutch line
6spd/4.30
205/50 VR1s

Exterior
Projector HID retrofit
Morimoto LED fogs
NB2 tails
15x8.5 Konig Hypergrams
Matched hardtop
NB1 "appearance package" or whatever it's called. OEM lip and small tupperware

Interior
NA carpet in black (Loop > pile)
NA cloth seats in black (NA seats > NB seats)
Jet Stream shorty shift console
MR tall/angled shifter w/ Carbing High Grip
Soft top thrown in garbage where it belongs
GS hard top brackets
Sony AA headunit/Soundstream nano amp/Focal 8" components
Airbags removed
Bell hub adapter/ATC Sprint 350mm wheel
Revlimiter gauge cluster
Switches/hvac updated to NB2 for red lighting because green is gross
NB2 window switch
LRB flat door panels with NA6 crash pads wrapped in NA cloth seat fabric

I've had many Miatas. I'm probably more excited about this one than i have about any of my others because it's everything i've liked about all of them, but in a package i can stand to live with on a daily basis.

 

Sounds familiar

Basically some copy/pasting from all 3 posted thus far But a few changes

Trackspeed Stage 2 longblock
Trackspeed EFR6258 kit

Black cloth interior w/ some diy sound deadening
A nice leather steering wheel
Comfy Schroth Pro-Fi harnesses
Black cloth soft-top(I've been caught in the sudden rain in the mountains 1 too many times)
MR shifter(any config, but a must-have)

 

 

I'm going to go off the reservation here, but if its for a primarily street car:

NC3 Club (White w/ Red or Red w/ Black) soft-top (I don't like the look of the PRHT)
Super20 flares
AutoEXE front lip
NOPRO Spoiler
BBFW RZ roll bar in Red
Advan RGII's or Gram Lite 57C6's
Bilstein DIY coilovers (or Xida's if they ever manifest)
Fab9 EFR turbo kit with full 3" turbo back ( )
Hardtop (for the winter)

 

 

 

Unpopular opinion: For street/DD things, NC or FRS/BRZ will both be better options at same price end game as NB.

If i had gotten my NB even 6 months later, i would have not gotten it, and gotten an NC/FRS/BRZ instead.

Not mad. Just a small bit of "dammit!"

 

If you want to cut out much of the work to get there (basically most everything save the turbo kit and pleb xida's) let me know. I have a car in socal I'll be selling that is the NA version of the build you are discussing.

 

This was kind of my target with my current car. I bought a high mile 2000 SE and dropped the ghetto-rods only motor out of my 11.6 @ 124 gutted NA car into it. There's certainly some potential left in it, but I broke my last 6 speed trying to push the limits. I feel like mid 300's is a good "safe-ish" range for the drivetrain.

Every day I come outside and look at my "daily driver" g35, think "not today", and I get in my miata instead. I think I've actually driven my daily driver once in the last 2 weeks, when it was raining.

 

I've been craving something with a little (a lot?) more power on the street recently. My high-compression VVT is fun, but most of my drive to work is highway. The ND would be like a newer version of what I already have with more comfort and a transmission I'd always be thinking about breaking if I added boost.

 

 

I'd do something like acamas but with a 3.6 rear (vs the 3.9 I think he has)

 

Had 3.63s for a while, testing 3.308s now. Not quite ready for prime time but the ratio is so sweet. For a 300whp street car, they are perfect. Working with the MFG to improve them now.

 

Are you able to loosely ballpark the price? Say... 500-1000usd, for example.

I'm building what I consider a fun street car. Boost is fun but I love how naturally aspirated miatas can be thrashed pretty much anywhere all the time.

Still have a fair amount to do but the ending is this:
- 1999 NB1 w/5 speed and 4.30 torsen
- 15x9 Storm S1 w/225 Rival
- Ohlins DFV coilovers
- IRP shifter
- Harddog rollbar
- Momo Start seats
- PCI seat mounts
- Schroth harnesses
- OMP Corsica 330 steering wheel
- RB header
- Goodwin Racing catback
- Blackbird Fabworx engine mounts
- RB swaybars
- RB front swaybar brace
- Braided brake and clutch lines

 

Looks like Falcone still has my BRZ for sale. You should go test drive it. Still has the MXP exhaust and Ground Control coilovers.

 

I drove Vteckiller2000's BRZ a bit last weekend. Has KW V3s, flash, intake pipe, headers, exhaust of some sort. Was good. 10/10 would DD.

Not buying anything that isn't a house at the moment.

 

My Pro Street Miata would be a typical build, in the past I've ruined to many cars I drive daily.

ND Miata
Softer setup of XIDAs
17x9 sticky tires
Full Exhaust and flash (E85 if they have one now)
Roll bar
BBKs
Engine, oil, diff coolers

Enjoy.
