Me, too. I briefly had a diff with a bad VLSD and it killed me at autocrosses. I can feel the current one going bad now.Quote:

Cool beans! I also pay little attention to myself, as evidenced by my inability to focus on...Quote:

Don't get me wrong; I'm not saying an LSD isn't a good thing to have in autox, as it definitely IS. I simply observe that far too many people obsess over them as being "must have" in Maitas, to the point of walking away from an otherwise-perfect car that lacks one. And most casual autocrossers couldn't tell the difference (as JJ describes above) if you offered them $50 to identify the car with the working VLSD.
As for the OP, decide what's most important and then stick by it: a specific budget, or a specific level of car (mechanical, age, mileage, features, torsen, etc.) You'll go bat shit crazy trying to buy a miata if you don't have at least a few firm criteria.
Priorities in order: torsen, ac/heat and two airbags, Miles and engine quality, looks, then budget (within reason). Now we play the waiting game...
I want a 3some with Anne Hathaway and Natalie Portman too....... Dreams
If I were you I'd buy a really cheap 1.6 and drive it into the ground and them buy my Torsen and 1.8 engine and tranny after I do my v8 swap next fall. You can install them over the winter and help fund my 16/17 winter project too. Parts will be for sale in November.
I sent you a pm
Sent you a pm, found a car you might want.
