101101 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) Miata is SOLD. Wheels and tires are here. Trailer sale thread will be up in a few days. My TTE legal Miata is officially available for sale (I think it could be an SCCA IT car if you swap the flywheel to stock [it's included]). I also have for sale: one set 15×7 +25, 13 lb each satin black D-Force wheels, used with a set of Nitto NT-01 tires mounted (two weekends and an autocross or two on them) an open deck trailer I'm asking $8,000 for the Miata. I'm open to reasonable offers. Pictures at bottom Overview I became the third owner of this Miata in the fall of 2006. At that point the car was a daily driver / autocross car in SCCA CSP autocross class. It was extremely competitive and — had I been motivated enough to go to all points events — could have trophied at the regional level or possibly higher for the season. I autocrossed the car from 2006 through 2009 before starting to track it. It has since done about six HPDE events. The car has an Emerald Green Mica body, silver hardtop, and white interior. The previous owner put in a new motor at 100k miles (body now has 140k miles). The car will come with Rota Circuit-8 15″ wheels with fairly used Dunlop Z1 Star Spec tires in 205/50-15. On the CMP scales it weighs 2223 with half a tank of gas and no driver. The Good: The car drives and handles great. The car is very predictable and inspires confidence when driving. The transmission shifts well and the engine pulls as well as you would expect a Miata to do. Additionally, the check engine light is still present and functions, but is not lit. The Bad: The body is not perfect – the car has lightly contacted tire walls twice. As such, the body has slight dents, but nothing major. The tires on the car need replacement. Modifications: Suspension / Brakes: Tein SS 1-way adjustable coil overs (put on by the previous owner — owner #2) Super Poly polyurethane bushings at all 22 points in the A-Arms Racing Beat front sway bar, no rear bar on the car (stock rear bar included with purchase) Carbotech XP10 and XP8 brake pads in the front and rear (respectively) Stock power steering still connected Engine / Exhaust: Lightweight flywheel (not sure of weight / brand, put on by owner #2) Monsterflow cold air intake. Stock intake included with sale. Racing Beat 4-to-1 exhaust header. Stock included with sale. Roadster Sport cat-back exhaust with high flow cat mid-pipe Factory limited slip differential Air conditioning removed, heater core still in place and connected for defog in rainy conditions Koyo 54mm radiator Safety Equipment: Custom cage done by Dan Tiley of Ti Speed Engineering - Triple NASCAR style door bars on each side - Petty bar which bolts in or can be removed to allow for a passenger seat - More head and elbow room around driver than in any other Miata I’ve sat in - This cage consistently gets compliments from others at every event I go to Full containment aluminum driver seat by Innovative Safety Products Safety Solutions 6-point harness for driver (SFI dated Aug 2010) G-Force window net SPA 4L SPA-MFE400A Fire system (Needs to be recertified 7/1/12) Longacre master cutoff switch Ultrashield Rally Sport 17” aluminum passenger seat (removable to install petty bar) G-Force 6 point clip-in harness on passenger side (SFI dated Nov 2008) Quick disconnect steering wheel Wink 5 panel rear view mirror Interior / Exterior: Removable Lexan windows for use while transporting on an open trailer or overnight paddock parking. Tow eyes installed front and rear Mesh steel grill insert to protect radiator Fire system activation, cutoff switch, and tow eye location exterior decals Hardwired power and on/off button for a GoPro HD video camera GoPro HD back cover modified to work with the harness in the car GoPro roll bar mount Other items which are included with sale of car: Head gasket, water pump, and other stock parts in my spares box, new and used Weathershield HD fitted car cover Pictures: Driver harness date tag: Passenger harness date tag: SPA fire system bottle mounted: Fire system activation button, pull cable to flip master cutoff switch, button to turn GoPro on/off, control unit for fire system: SPA fire bottle: Miata at CMP May 1, 2011: Miata at CMP Feb 2011: The Miata shown with the hardtop, passenger seat, and petty bar removed.

101101 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Bumping this. After reading through some rules I realized the car is TTE (NASA classing) legal as it sits now. I weighed it at the track (CMP) the last time I was there and it came in at 2223 with half a tank of gas and no driver. A lighter exhaust can be fitted as the one on it now is kind of heavy and there are a few other areas it can be lightened up. I was able to get a 1:56.1 laptime (according to a lap timer on my phone) at CMP when I was there in May (video evidence: ). That weekend a 1:56.1 would have been exactly mid pack for TTE. For reference about my driving skill level, that was my first weekend in HPDE3, so it's not like I've been doing this 20 years. Also, I'm not planning to split up the parts of this (trailer, wheels & tires, etc) without selling the car first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
