1999 civic hatch, stripped and gutted, B18 swap ( high Compression NA build) ,type r tranny (with lsd). weight : 2240

1999 Mazda Miata, NA 12:1 compression build, hardtop. weight: 2220

I tend to like small, lightweight, NA vehicles so this car is a bit of a change. However still enjoying the bigger engine and power. Also I had to learn about tire sizes over 15"

Keep the Z in DD status and buy a S2k as a track car, that's what I'm gonna do

1991 Alfa Romeo Spider, only because it was totaled. However, the Z is a lot of fun to drive, and actually more practical for me....

87 Olds Cutlass> 95 Miata> 02WRX > 06GTi > 14 307z. Those are the dailys. I miss the size and feel of the miata, and I miss the boost of the WRX/GTi and the "solid" feel of my GTi, but the Z is pretty awesome. I don't regret it in the least. It's faster than the modded WRX and a better overall package than all of the other cars in my opinion.
