8 years?! Wow!! That’s amazing. Keep those videos coming- I’ve installed some aftermarket parts on my 2014 Club Mx5, based on your experience. Always have a good time watching you work on your Mx5- gets me working on mine. 😊
wow 8 years i guess that it's a friend a this point :), i do understand why am from morocco and a friend bought an NC1 with soft top / hard top and it's a pleasure to drive but wen we got it it was in a super bad shape, it was crashed (Front Air bags deployed )and "stitched" to hide the crash ect... we didnt mind because of the price he got it for about 6500$, and after that wen i had to bring it to him cause he didnt have time to get the car from a different city, i went i and bought it and registred it in my name, the car was in a very bad state, leaky Shocks, rusty brakes , Bose Radio missing the CD player (it was removed from inside the headunit so it only had FM radio) mismatched Spark plugs, bad MAF, water in the cooling system..... Anyway even seen all that we couldnt miss it, am going to try to upload a video or pictures about the story of that Mx5.
Nice car man! I’ve owned NA’s and NB’s but I’m looking to finally get into an NC2. How many miles are on yours? And how has maintenance/reliability over the years?
Chassis has 125ish thousand. Engine probably 50k. At the end of the day, theyre as reliable as any Ford or Mazda. It's a basic engine with basic parts!
@@ColoredinLight I haven't watched them all yet, but will. I really like Miatas and might get another one soon. I just thought it was a funny comment. I heard you say you put the two types of lights together, which I understand, but they actually were made for the car, weren't they? Just thought it was funny, not trying to be a smart ass.
Hey Jackson, I have an NC1 and am thinking of putting those seats in my Miata. Could I daily drive them? I dont want to use harnesses so also wondering if it works with the OEM seatbelt with no problems. I see you are running it but I'm not sure if they use the seatbelt mount for the seat. I'm still figuring out if it is worth losing my heated seats but you never need it here anyways. They aren't worn at all but I want to stick in my seat better when auto. I love your build btw, you got me into cars and I'm grateful for your content! You give me a lot of the confidence I needed to start modifying cars so thank you so much. I'm loving it.
The spoiler would be great on a 4 second race car, almost as great as it looks on a Miata**** there ya go, must have been autocorrected for you. Error averted
@@ColoredinLight it's a RWD car that can corner at higher speeds very easily and may not have the fastest engine but is lightweight and plenty of power to get up there. Spoilers are shown to be very effective at speeds of 60mph and, depending on what you are driving, you will start to notice a difference as soon as 40mph. Plenty of rally cars have them and rarely are taking corners at 60+ MPH. There are tons of debates and posts about this and almost all come to the conclusion that the spoilers are effective below speeds of 100mph and don't have to be on a 4 second car to make differences. There are also companies that show data with their spoilers on these cars to show if they are effective or not. There are plenty that are just for looks and have no actual effect on performance but there are also those that are shown to have decent performance on these as reported by users with their track times as well.

Hell yeah man, going to keep it around still! Thanks for watching.
Usually, a spoiler like that is too much, although it suits your Miata perfectly!!!
Pistons and rods are getting done next week on mine. I'll be heading out to texas to see family when it cools of a bit. I'll have to stop by.
Can't wait to see it man!
I love yours build. I wanted to build one like yours but little too much for weekend fan car.
You have a GREAT NC probably one of the best on TH-cam! I have a ND but I love your NC
Love the ND! Thanks for watching!
A/C??? My 2012 NC has same issue! How to fix this? Recharge AC?? Thus a common issue?
All it needs now is more cowbell.
Agreed.
Thirded
I was literally watching the 5 year video awaiting the next update
Hell yeah man thanks

It definitely is part of the family!
Awesome!! Still love my 2012 GT!!
Oh saw it on reddit! Nice ride :)
Ahh nice! Thanks!
Necesito ese alerón en mi miata!!

Very awesome Miata!!! Did you swap the engine yourself?
Yes I did
Tail lights ... it's like they were made for the car ... 😂
Did you uh, miss that series of videos?

@dhrjr the NA Miata tail lights ares much different. Definitely check out the videos! Was a cool project
@@ColoredinLight Gotcha! Makes sense.

I wish I would have spent the extra 300 bucks on nicer seats. They're good, but not great.
@ColoredinLight which ones would you get if you had a second chance, and in your opinion is it worth losing the heaters?
Good job
😎
Where did you buy the side mirrors for

What’s ur wheel tire spec?
I've got videos on specifics! You can also click on the parts list link in the description of this video.
The spoiler would be great on a 4 second race car, but a Miata?
