- Currently installed stuff as of 12/01/2005 -
• Hard Dog Hard Core Double Diagonal (HDHCDD) rollbar
Most SoloII drivers agree that a rollbar is just extra weight. That may be, but I like it, it looks cool,
and it may save my life someday. It lets me use my harness at open lapping events too!
• Tein HA coilover kit for 99+ Miatas (NB)
JDM Goodies. You can't get the HAs anymore. Nevermind fitting NB parts on the NA Miata. But here's a hint if you
want to do it yourself - everything bolts right up!
• Tein pillowball upper shock mounts (NB)
Gives me some extra shock travel in the rear. Maybe someday I'll add them to the front as well. For now, I have
the standard NB tophats up there.
• Racing Beat HUGE NB double-adjustable front swaybar
I like NB parts on my NA. This bar only needs a set of adjustable end links to bolt up to an NA.
• Stock 11mm (94-97) and 12mm (90-93) rear swaybars
And sometimes, I run with no swaybar at all. Depends on the autocross course.
• Flyin' Miata front shock tower brace
This doesn't make the car any faster, but it does get rid of some NVH in around-town driving.
• Spherical rod-end swaybar end links (not Moss)
Squeaky, bitchy Spec Miata parts. This will soon be removed in favor of the RB units.
• Autocross: Kumho 225/50/15 Ecsta V710 tires on 15x7" Team Dynamics PR1 wheels
SM2 wheels/tires. I don't know if I'll use them for the 2006 CSP season. They look GREAT and stick like glue.
• Street: Yokohama ES100s (195/50/15) on 15x6.5" hand-polished Rota Circuit 8 wheels
Decent street tires, beautiful wheels. Gonna have to make a page for them... because 20 hours of hand polishing is an experience
to be shared.
• Axxis Ultimates brake pads
Can't beat them for a street/autocross pad. For track days, they're a weak link, but it's easy to change out pads.
• Autocross-spec alignment
Close to what the national guys run, but without quite as much toe.
- Stuff that's been removed -
• NB hybrid GC suspension
I'm not going into it.
• Ebay shock tower brace
Nice little part that was only removed because I got a smokin' deal on the FM bar.
• Racing Beat NA swaybars
The front wasn't stiff enough. The rear was too stiff.
• KYB AGX shocks
Great for BS and CS autocross action. Removed in favor of the TEINs, which I love.
• Stock seatbelt tower brace
Technically illegal to remove for CSP. But it interfered with my harness... I've got a big heavy rollbar in its place.
