hey i'm only 13 but ive got 27 years of experience building cars i want to put a v8 from a ferrari into my miata and i have a budget of $500 but its ok because my friends dad is helping me and hes an old hot rodder so I know hes gunna help us out

very cute.

I like it. Do you have a box of JB weld and quick steel?:D

you forget duct tape!

Not a problem. It bolts right in. I saw it in a Japanese magazine. (or was that an Italian magazine?).

I think that this will ruin the balance and spirit of the car. If Mazda wanted the Miata to have an Italian V8...they would have put one in it.

At least you are starting now...it might actually run by the time you get your license.

What? I thought that this was the correct method for de-newbifying one's self. It certainly seems to be the most prevalent one. :D

Your budget is obviously too high.

The Suck is strong with this one

Haha. We've got to get those T-shirts printed! I can't decide on the graphic that would be best- I'm thinking perhaps a helmeted head, in silhouette, with the wreck in the background.

(Also, welcome aboard.)

block with rod hanging out the side?
miata on its roof with a wisp of smoke rising off it?
holed piston?
195/50 on 15x9?

ill buy 10.

..and you'll get a free T Shirt.

i want to become your vendor so i can get discount on 15x9 and spend more on my motor :p
