If at this point in Miata history you still have the "gay" factor running around, ur simply not gonna get it. Why people don't choose to get it and yet call themselves gear heads is beyond. Light weight, rwd, short wheel base, modded mega power. Fantastic balance, nicely weighted manual steering telepathic communication through the seat of your pants straight to your brain. Nearly fully adjustable suspension (minus ride hight unless you go with coil overs).

NO INTERCOOLER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@ethownzbh Most of the V8 swaps for Miatas add only 200 lbs depending on the engine of choice (there are bolt-in kits for LS, but Ford 5.0 and Lexus 4.xL are also popular. They DO effect weight distro but not as bad as you'd expect. In fact it's the high power and torque numbers combined with the Miata's short wheel base that make it hard to handle, not the new weight distro.

[mpalm887]

Doesn't sound like a Lexus V8, sounds American.

[ethownzbh]

what size is the v8 and does it upset the weight distribution?
