Default NE Ohio Red NA

Whats going on everyone? New on here but not new to many other miata sites. From Cleveland OH and drive a red NA

I have been working on cleaning up the exterior and all the problems with the car since I bought it a couple months ago.

The fun will start next year with it and finish suspension/brakes and race the hell out of it. Then eventually will be either a built turbo setup or a LS1 swap. More likely the latter

Thanks! I would have volunteered to help moderate because I moderate multiple other forums, but the time I have is getting much more limited and I don`t think I have the time to help out as much as would be needed

Welcome, looks better than my 95R, but I'm working on it. I have a BEGi Shanghia turbo on it with Brain's MS. I have thought of selling turbo and returning it to stock, as I have a 99 Turbocar.

That red paint looks like a pretty fresh spray. It also looks darker and richer than stock. I think the contrasting top color works well because it ties together with the spoiler.

Welcome.

I definitely like the contrasting color of the top. Will probably do the same with mine.

Thanks! Yea, I like the look of them, and eventually will use it to route air to something, not sure which route I`m going to go yet.

Yea, I decided this car is going to go with exterior first, then basic interior and safety, then suspension/brakes and then big power.

Welcome.
Thanks! Yea, that paint on the body panels minus what I repainted and the back trunk lid is all original. The body panels have never even been removed from what me and a couple other of my body work guys have told me. The sunlight def. gave a different looking color.

I like it, but I am going to end up painting it red in the spring time, I like that look a little better.
