I've always owned a miata for the last 13 years and I'll speak for the miata community. We approve and the reason being. Miata Is Always The Answer Can use it for absolutely anything you wish.
No body forget Jesse combs the racer who drove that car for Tate in the gambler 500 who past away doing what she loved here in Oregon. RIP Jesse combs.
It is so cool! The music really makes me focused on the video and the Miata looks sick! And I couldnt imagine the perfect suspension like the miata's! Keep up the good work!
@@ElBach1y nah nothing yet, deciding which to do , make it the insane drift car it could be but needs everything replaced underneath + engine rebuild or.....my chevy K2500 w newish V8 had a tree fall on it smashed windsheild and roof , trying to find out if I can cut that enough to fit the fiero on it, it's like 40" shorter
Hello Mike. I've just seen the Mad Max Miata on the DRIVETRIBE. So you are the Kiwi, and after searching on the web, I read about the Japanese article featuring all the great cars. So you're pretty well-known guy. BTW, is there any way to have the regular Miata to have it this high for the road without the possibility of running that fast? I mean to make a Miata SUV kinda car for my wife for her daily use? She like the MX-5 but she said is too low for her. If you can offer a printed plan with the photos and or on DVD, I believe there will be many who wants to buy a copy. There are plenty of used MX-5 and the only challenge will be to deal with the Japanese DMV which will be our problem to be solved. I used to have an RX-7 with the peripheral port tuned engine with extra-long intake for the torque but it didn't work much.
Maybe loose the square bracket on the roll bar at the top of the front hoop where it meets the centre bars.Looks way to angry to be in flailing distance of the occupants.
Honestly i wish more people wouldnt be afraid to do cool stuff like this. I got a shitter that shits and gets. And I see lifted miatas with offroad tires and it fits well. I just wanna do the same buts its an old hyundai Accent. I wanna scrao the fenders and just get some aluminum and just chuck the old suspension and drop in some fresh wheels tires suspension and a new drive train just keep the body and send it. Maybe a turbskie. If i really wanna try.

Anyway, very cool car sir!

Not great for a family of 5, however.

Except anything power related
This guy needs to meet Gingium and his bad ass Subaru swapped AWD rally Miata!
Yes!
More like “rescued” Miata. That thing is badass
Herb Phene X2, nobody wanted this NA when I got it.
I didnt expect the onion chop in this episode...
Jessi is a damn legend.
Same. It still makes me sad.
No body forget Jesse combs the racer who drove that car for Tate in the gambler 500 who past away doing what she loved here in Oregon. RIP Jesse combs.

He passed? Goddamn the good people always go first.
Hope you ride in heaven Jessi.
awe I love Jesse Combs. I miss her and I didnt even know her personally. She was a Hero for guys that like building stuff
I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH MY MOTORSPORTS FAMILY!!!! SO MUCH FUN!!!! I LOVE YOU AND I THANK YOU!!!!
Of course Larry is the first one to get some Hammers content on Hoonigan!
Get this thing to the BoostedBoys and PFI speed for the K-swap i think Brent would LOVE this thing!
It sounds so angry going 15mph. I freaking love this thing.
You know what it looks like .. a life sized rc car it's just missing the big antenna.
Larry is all wrapped up in dense cloths, while the owner is just casually in shorts and a hoodie. 😂
It was freezing out there. Tate is just a real man.
@@larrychen5678 Holy moly! A reply from Larry himself! I've never heard of it being cold in the desert durin the day. Must be Nevada 😂
There are warm deserts a d cool deserts
Love the sound as you lift off, sounds a lot like my first MX-5 after I had an exhaust fabricated for it. God damn I miss that car!
You need to head to Chicago and check out Gingium's Rally Miata.
Y’all get gingiums subie swaped awd miata on here
they need to do a race. Gingium's should have more power and is awd duhhh. But this one looks to have awesome suspention.
That thing is beyond cool. Way to much fun! Purpose built fantastic times!
tell him he needs to take it to the Boosted Bois and PFI speed in CO. they k swap everything and that would be right up their alley
PFI would have a K in it in a week.
It is so cool! The music really makes me focused on the video and the Miata looks sick! And I couldnt imagine the perfect suspension like the miata's! Keep up the good work!
Loving the old school McLean wire wheels!!!
"The middle two share compression" Haha!
GREATVIDEO LARRY!!!! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO SPEAK YOUR TRUTH!!!!
I really expected Larry to say "It really is like Hot Rod Drag Week"... ^_^
Just kidding, we love you, Larry! ;-)
😂🤣
they're 14's but i keep'em clean, i keep'em clean. lol, loved that film.
This screams B is for Build K swap collaboration.
C M Lincoln we love Chris!!!
14:40 that little plate/gusset/mount thingy on the roll cage gave me lvl 100 anxiety lol
at least from the go pro pov anyway...
motoX oh god, I couldn’t keep my eyes off it haha
"Got some dubs on it." "They actually 10's but I keep them clean."
Love the car and all the logos, especially the Phoenix!
Interesting that a car bought to be thrashed on became a pride and joy and an icon
Saw this in person at the Gambler 500, it's awesome
Awesome back story
Love to see a build video.
Hell yea, hoonigan time
Triple gold 100 spoke Roedsters though!? That's great
I want to make one so bad, and diesel swap it.
Was all the suspension custom?
5:20 has when they start talking. About it btw
What's the 4x4 in the background at 0:40 seconds in?
Need this thing on build and biology
Saw this thing in the background of donut media’s video and was instantly hooked
Hahaha! I saw this in Apple Valley at the gas station. Super cool!
THANK YOU, GAMBLER, 500!!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO KEEP AMERICA BEAUTIFUL AND CLEAN!!!!
makes me want to jack the 88 fiero when I rebuild/ replace the engine ,damn that would be a blast
Did ya do it?

What can't you do with a Miata? It's the car that keeps on giving.
Stupid , ridiculous, hilarious...I love it. And one of the best sounding miatas I've heard. Maybe even because of the misfire
Is it AWD?
Very good as always 😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷

RIP Jessi 😢😢

13:25 is when they start it
What is the song at the start ( closeups of vehicle)?
What kind of suspension is in it
What’s with the low rider wheels
14:10 if you’re just here to see it perform, though I’d recommend watching the whole thing anyway if you have time
Mazda better start paying attention. Make cars great again. Miata 4x4 should be on that list.
Ford 302 HO swap it, with open side pipe headers....AC Cobra style...
Jessie would totally love it....Swap it in her honor.
Rest in peace 🙏 Jesse!!!
Should put a giant antenna on it like a life-sized RC
They’re 14s but I keep em clean. Best line of the year
Off road miata is Best miata 🤩
Needs a build show on hoonigan suppy can k swap it in his sleep even tho I reckon a na 3 rotor screamer is more suited to it
ABG!!!!!!!
That miata is actually clean as F
Another non-turbo option as opposed to k-swapped could be the Rocketeer Kit (Jaguar V6 www.rocketeerltd.com/) :)
Honestly i wish more people wouldnt be afraid to do cool stuff like this. I got a shitter that shits and gets. And I see lifted miatas with offroad tires and it fits well. I just wanna do the same buts its an old hyundai Accent.

This is cool cuz my dads in the gambler 500
"the two middle cylinders are sharing compression" haha
A 30 dollar injector cleaning might fix that misfire.
He mentions that the 2 center cylinders are sharing compression. Injectors won't help that.
Honestly not ruined cuz a lot of this looks pretty reverse able and it's functional and awesome!
Digging the old school McLeans
you guys live streaming tomorrow the 29th
Add a channel Hooptie-again starring cars like this!
Yo I saw your car in donut media's gambler video!
You should get the boosted-boi's to help k swap. Maybe even a 2jz
that thing will be a ton of fun when it makes more than 30hp
We should gift that hat to Hoovies Garage
Wait so they took the car back in time to the 70s?
DeMar DeRozan No the time warp opened up and it got delivered to the 70s raced, banned then hidden in a barn for 40 years.
I love it
K-swaps are great, but expensive. Stick in a cheap Ecotec engine with the swap kit from ecotecmiata.ca
You have to cut the hood for a k swap aswell
I saw this on donut and had to find out who this was
🙏RIP Jessy
lol...
Club de Cuervos music
LoL Dada...9:15
Sounds like a scooby
May I ask what ever happened to scum bag labs?
Swap in a junkyard 4.8 over a K, I think you won't regret it
Sounds like a Altima & hardbody
I see a traxxas sticker, I like that sticker
- Super :D
- Pozdrowienia z Polski :) (..u nas niestety nie można jeździć takimi autkami.. :( ..)
you need to drive that car like you dont care, this guy is being wayyy to soft with the car he needs to hammer it.
I really love the the car but I feel like the compliments made by this interviewer were back handed.
two coils and it would run right
Gingium's miata would shidd all over this one.
ha ha GTAV Benny's wheels
It's a 3 cylinder.
Love the videos but could we see more of the cars instead of talking heads?
Don’t do k swap do rocketeer swap
