Okay, so after owning my car for like 10 months I decided I need to do a build thread...
So heres the story, sold my mk4 jetta and after seeing TIGS car I was like damn I need to get a miata, but all my friends said "rwd in snow is horrible" and my driveway is absolutely horrible and dosnt get plowed (its 1/3rd of a mile long) so I figured buying a miata was not going to happen, so looked into a EG hatch and after searching every single hatch within a 15 hour drive I decided to creep on craigslist for a miata, and my one miata buddy found what is known as today as winslow
My one friend named it!
So ad stated it was a 65k miata, 1990 for $4200 or something, called the guy up and said I will come get it tomorrow if I like what I see. The car had a HORRIBLE center exhaust that looked like a butt hole and it got hit from behind slightly and had a broken rear light and a bumper with some spider cracks in it, but it was FLAWLESS. The old guy needed it gone cuz his wife couldnt get in and out of it anymore. SCORE. I will take it
*** I AM GOING TO ADD PICS SOON I GOTTA TRANSFER THEM ALL TO THIS LAPTOP SO ITS GOING TO BE EDITED IT WITHIN A FEW HOURS***
Here are a few pics from when I first got it, my first good clean and photoshoot of it! Haahha those wheels and exhaust </3

Then I got coils and TSI's! Soon got some spacers and lots more things and didnt take many pics of my car since then (used my phone mainly) and I cannot access facebook from this laptop to post em up. Did a few track days aswell after this.
