Drive better! ;)
I like tail that swings.
Come out to an autocross and other organized event to learn the limits of your car. Don't practice on the street.
good advice! lolQuote:

Alignment and better tires will keep things in check. Bigger front sway bar if you want more understeer. More seat time is always a plus. Enjoy your new car!
yessir, it's me. i still have it, but trying to sell it.Quote:

How's it going brian. I had the same FWD to RWD transition issues when I got the Miata.... it gets more natural feeling with time.

a buddy of mine took me to a huge parking lot in NRH this morning and i learned alot in that short amount of time.
also looking to get an intake and an exhaust for the NA. thoughts on that?
Autocross is WAY better than just going To a Parking lot that's empty...in autocross u have to be able to look 2 gates ahead of the one Ur fixin to go into so there is alot more skill involved than a empty parking lot....intake and exhaust will do alittle...but I think bumping timming up to 16 and running 93 oct did more than intake and exhaust...jmho
timing is already at 14 i believe. running 93 already.
pics are in the bull section, Rick
Of ur running 93 u can go up to 16
i would like to, but don't know the procedure nor do i have a timing light :(.
Here is the procedure...
