    New Member!

    Hi, I just found this forum when I heard about the cruise in New Hampshire on miata.net

    I figured I'd introduce myself. My name is Cory, and I just bought a 1990 Classic Red Mazda Miata 5-speed with 56k miles on it! I came from a 2001 Volvo S60 T5 Manual, and it made around 300hp to the crank. I got sick of FWD, and wanted a car that was just fun to drive, and the miata fits that perfectly.

    Anyway, I'm interested in local meets around here. I live in Medway, MA, but go to school at Bryant in Smithfield, RI.

    Thanks!
    -Cory

          I'm deffinitely going to make the cruise. I got a couple of my friends interested too (Mustang (seen in the picture), and a couple subies). My car is completely stock, but I plan on doing a couple things to it. I'm a fan of clean cars, just to compliment the stock look. I'm going to get the factory front lip, coilovers, and some wheels. I haven't decided on which wheels I want yet, i'm looking at Enkei RPF1's or Kosei K1's. Anyway, here are some pictures from the day I bought it, which was only a couple of weeks ago.

              Thanks! It looks even better in person, It was definitely garage kept, and never driven in the winter, and the under body can prove it! I think it was only driven around 2800 miles a year.

                  ME = Jealous, besides the fact its a 90. Hows the crank doing? When I get rid of mine Ill be sure to let you know, I got a roll bar, and a 93 engine if your at all interested haha. Hows it been so far, I love mine, finally another miata on , hopefully we can get 4 or 5 on the spring cruise
                  For rims check out the xxr513's
                  they are really nice and light and cheap. We should stick together on the cruise, depending on how grippy those tires are, and how crappy my bushings are haha. What tires are on there right now.

                    Yeah, we'll definitely have to cruise together, but I have awful mismatched tires on it now, and i'm sure the stock shocks aren't any good.

                    I'd be interested in the rollbar if you really want to sell it, but my crank looks "ok". I didn't notice it wobbling at all.

                    The Rota RB wheels are also really nice.
