The doors on a 370z would never hold up to that.:shakes head:

Probably more. I don't think it has been US crash tested.

couldnt you try and register it as a kit or something else?

this is one of many reasons I would love to move to Europe. There are so many cars I would love to buy.

that reliant is only like 1400 US you could almost afford to buy it and not care when you flip it....

I don't think so. Although I guess at 1400 you could probably get like an old Civic or something anyways.

But would the doors hold up? The RR likely has the Miata door upgrade ... they looked fine after the roll!

If you put a roll cage in the RR and make the top rounded, you could have a lot of fun driving it around in an empty parking lot :D

are miata doors a direct plug n play for the 370z, or would a body shop have to do some tweaking to ge tthem to fit?

no this cannot be done. See miata doors have a different basic yet superior DNA code. The miata doors would reject the inferior 370 DNA they were attached to.

Kinda like a kidney transplant that the body rejected if that helps

Lets say i was feeling ballsy, and got the miata doors on the 370. Do you think by the next morning the miata doors would have consumed the 370 and I'd be left with just miata doors laying on the ground?

Sorry I'm new to the DNA thing.

this is a possibility, either way the doors would have to kill the inferior parasite that they were attached to

the doors are worth more than the rest of the car, and probably more than your Z is worth....

Since Mazda did away with the Miata badge, I must know if MX-5 doors are just as good as Miada doors? I need to know because there is an MX-5 at work that I sometimes park next to. If the doors are still Miada quality, then I won't park next to it. One door ding and my Z will probably explode!

Give the door a good kick. If you break your foot, the door is good. If the door gets dinged, then run and hide :eekdance:
