Hey guys, my name is Ryan from Delaware. I joined this forum a long while back when I was first researching miatas and stumbled upon it. Dig what you guys do!
Well anyway, I now have a 93 NA thats been through alot.
Bought it stock, had to replace the front subframe when I got it. Put it on shitty coilovers, dumped it out from the start. Finally got some wheels, rolled around on them for a while.
Smashed my oil pan through a 1/4 steel skidplate on my way home from Philly one night. In result I raised my motor 2.5 inches, the hood didnt fit right anymore, so i notched the hood. I have V8 roadster frame rails widened to protect my brake/fuel lines and cut and turned into skis up front. I sold my xxrs to force myself into buying nice wheels when I scooped up some 13's to roll on in the mean time.
Pics:






The car is haggard, dumped, and for the most part my daily beater. Its been through alot. Fenders and hood will be back shortly, along with some go-fast bits.

Rad wheels, Rad Valve cover, Rad ride height, Rad lady in the car during burnout - she is a keeper, unless you dropped her already, then I am sure you had a good reason but if you didn't then she is pretty rad.

haha thanks guys, And the steering wheel thing I did when I was 16 too, now im 22 and still do it. Bitches love it.
As for the wire wheels, I may hold onto them and switch wheels around, but Im looking for something different currently.

Actually ditching the wires, the car was lower on 15s. Not wide enough to make tire sizes availible usable for me.
