    ForSale 4 Sale Complete 1.6 to 1.8 driveline conversion

    Well I bought this complete kit from johnwag back in February with the intention of putting it in the car along with a turbo kit. Unfortunately other expenses have come up and I no longer have the spare money to use the miata as anything more than a daily driver. Not to mention a mud truck that get only 6mpg. All bushing appear to be in go shape, axles are straight, and weights are on the drive shaft. It has a 1.8L open diff along with a RX-7 lsd. I can get pictures if need and would deliver to a Wednesday night meet.

    Asking $800 obo (reasonable)
    1991 Mazda Miata....Bone Stock!
    2004 Ford Ranger....Small Cosmetic Updates

    I'm not sure exactly what this includes, since you're talking bushings. How about a complete list?
    92 Sunny 214k, 95 Dimples, 93 James Bondo, 92 SM (Speedie Jr )
    Shelley, Apex, Tigger, Max, Baby(cats), Fluffy, Spot, and Peanut (mini horses), Cinnamon & Bitsy(dawgs)
    MSR #1001, SCCA #208822 Let's go racin'

    I read over this one a few times too.. I finally decided he has a 1.8 carrier w/an open diff in it, axles, drive shaft, and an RX-7 LSD that could be swapped into the 1.8 carrier. When he says bushings, I suspect he is referring to the big rubber diff mounts.

    Are you sure this is a valid translation??

    Since I owned it before Wes, let me help clarify.
    It is 1.8 housing that has an RX7 clutch type limited slip installed. Wes is also selling the driveshaft and axles from a 1.8 car. So, if you want to do a 1.8 swap on a 90-93 car this would be a great kit.

    FYI: The rx7 diff requires machining for the axles to clip into place. Since the RX7's have solid rear axles and not halfshaft axles, the rx7 diff does not have the necessary groove for the halfshaft to clip into place. I included the open diff with the swap so that a machinist could match the marks in the open diff and machine the grooves required for the axles to clip into place.

    Hope this helps clarify things.
