V8 wannabe from North Carolina
Hey all just a hello and a test post really. Tried earlier but for some reason my thread wasn't posted.
Anyway I have 2 1994 miatas one with all the good stuff including Torsen diff and 5 spd. This one has a Begi S turbo with a lot of extras including upgraded clutch radiator exhaust etc but is not running possibly due to aon aftermarket security system installed by the PO. $1000.00 in this one.
The newest one is an automatic C package with 81000 miles. Looks great underneath and I bought this one entirely with the idea of a V8 swap but have been following MRM Jason's thread about the Honda V6 swap with great interest. I may go this route in the end due to funds and time constraints.
I have 2500.00 in the new one but it came with a hard top so really only have 1500.00 in it. Both cars need paint and body work but plan on doing mechanics and upgrades to suspension and tires wheels first.
Love this and all the other Miata sites and look forward to getting my hands dirty with this build!

Welcome Allan! You've got a collection of NA's! And I like it. Glad you shared a post and thinking of a possible V6 or V8 swap. I, too, think a 6 would fun to build and equally fun to drive. Please start a build thread with pics to let us ride along with ya.
