OK, car is back up for sale, new asking price is $5500, but that can change depending on the “goodies package” included. Reason for sale is lack of need for a dedicated auto-x car with so few events and sites these days. Want to buy a race-ready track car instead. The longer this car stays around, the greater the temptation to gut it, cage it, and turn it into a Spec Miata, and it is too nice for that.

Here is the same post that I started the thread with, but updated:
FS: 1995 Miata, 99700 miles. 100% converted to “R” Package (lightest possible factory configuation with Torsen diff, also has stiffer rear springs and lower ride height.) Car came from North Carolina, so no Buffalo winters. Currently garage-kept and only driven to and from events.
Includes:
-
Custom-valved Bilstein shocks built by FatCat Motorsports (currently non-adjustable, but they can be made single-adjustable for $700, and double-adjustable are being prototyped as we speak).
-
Custom bumpstops
-
Four different front swaybars (7/8" solid, 15/16" solid, 1 1/8" hollow, and the stock piece)
-
custom heim-jointed front swaybar endlinks
-
Two sets of wheels and tires:
-
15x8 Enkei PF01 wheels (new in 2011) with 225/50R15 Hankook RS3 tires mounted, at least 50% of tread left. These wheels are pristine, not even 1000 miles on them.
-
15x6.5 Enkei RS5 for the street with 205/50R15 Kumho XS - one tire has small nick in the sidewall, and these wheels have plenty of scratches from being inside the tire trailer. I only use these to store the car on these days. Tires have about 50% life left, but again, one has a nicked sidewall.
