Florida Peoples
 
I have noticed that there is quite a following here in Florida. Has there ever been any talk of a get together? I have been collecting parts, but have not started the process. I have yet to see a Miata LS conversion in person. Any ideas? David

I'm in Plant City and there are several others around. There is a local club that meets regularly tampabaymiatas.net but nothing V8 specific.

I'm in florida, Indian river county to be exact. Sadly my car isn't done yet, but I'd be game for a meet up. Give me some inspiration and motivation.

I live in Dade City. Do you ever do the Plant City car shows?

Unk577 09-01-2015 06:51 PM

If I'm not working and it isn't raining I'll usually go out there.

What department do you work for?

Hillsborough here

Flavaquero 09-01-2015 07:59 PM

I have a buddy down there. Ready to retire. Goes by Gator.

Unk577 09-01-2015 08:10 PM

I'm sorry...lol. I know him very well, same station for 15 years

I have a 95 Miata that actually runs and drives. I bought a 8.8 diff , a t56 from another hcfr guy and LS oil pan. I'm looking to do the v8r kit. I see a Tampa address. Can we buy directly from there?

SupaDupaSteve 09-01-2015 09:21 PM

It's in Thonotosassa fl actually. and I've never actually been there but all my parts have shipped from there and They shipped my subframe kit for free since I'm in florida. You need to call in though, the online system doesn't recognize the location.

Flavaquero 09-01-2015 09:45 PM

Got it Thanks!

Unk577 09-02-2015 08:37 AM

They do not have a store front but I'm sure you could call them and arrange pick up or delivery.

mazdaspeedmiata 09-02-2015 08:42 PM

i am surprised that whoever needed a subframe didnt buy it from this guy

Price and shipping costs deterred me

Lets get something organized?

ItsAllRigged 09-05-2015 02:12 PM

Sure, maybe October/Nov? Seems like somewhere around Lakeland would be a good meeting point.

Unk577 09-05-2015 03:49 PM

There's the Hooters right there at I-4 where the All Florida meet used to be held. Let me know, I'm in and can get some others to come as well.
