Hey idk if you would care to help me out on something or if you could, but I’m looking to use a tdo4L turbo for my nb Miata and the manifolds and down pipes I’m looking at are for a tdo4. do you know what the difference is and are the input and output flanges the same on each?
Good tire choise, I am on my second set of NS2R's. most of my friends run them too and some have experimented with federal 595 and yokohama Advan semislicks, but most of them returned to Nankangs tires just because of the quality for the money. There's also a NS2 (so without the R). It's the more "dailyable" brother. Although 1 daily mine even through the winter. Love to see 2soon junior getting a makeover and excited for the Nitrous. Keep it up man :)
Great highlight flashes of some of your best past work. I still run those stock rims on my 2001. They are a lot shinier though. Like the new rims you bolted up way better though.
In this video it has stock exhaust, intake is a DIY 2.5" with K&N filter, squaretop intake manifold, exhintake cam; and also there's a mic in the engine bay. But, even inside the car you hear a ton of induction noise and it's excellent.
awesome look dad and 2sj is looking like you are enjoying the heck outta the stock power to much , winding them gears out lol jk na but looking good dad and cant weight for more content ... hope to see u back regular posting again ... peace n love pops stay rad and stay safe l8r
So I have Advanti Storms, 15x8 35mm offset and the widest I can fit on my car without rolled fenders is 205. I have 205/50/15 Potenza RE71s and they are really close to touching. Your car doesn't seem very low. My ride height is about 12.5in in the rear and about 12in in the front. I don't think there's anyway I'm squeezing 225s on there without rolling the fenders.
Welcome back; been checking the channel everyday for a upload 🤣🤣🤣 I recently acquired a jdm NB, and have been following the channel closely for tips on making most power out of it. Currently looking into the me442 vs haltech elite 1000. Would you mind sharing an overview of the features of the mr442, and possibly dive into the accelerometer and gyroscope, as those do not exist on the haltech. Thanks in advance
I have a 1991 miata a little under 200k miles and has developed a pretty severe rod knock. My dad is a master mechanic so we will be doing all the work (other then machining the block) at home. Our biggest issue right now is that no one has inventory for a stock rebuild for the 1.6. Since this is my first rebuild my dad wants us to keep the original 1.6 in the miata instead of swapping to a 1.8 or getting a working 1.6. Is there anywhere or websites you know of that would have stock rebuild supplies or will we have to shell out more for custom bottom end internals?
Just got new rims for my miata and thinking of a tire choise in 195/50r15 (can't change stock dimension here) Heard nankang are really sketchy in rain for dailying, are Yokohama ad08r any a good choise for a miata ?
Let’s go! It’s not Monday so happy Miata Thursday boys. So excited for this content and I’m super stoked to see a Miata ingest some spicy air 😂 keep up the good work Greg!!!
TheCarPassionChannel - how do you tell if a when is backwards or not since these do not easily show any marks. PS: looks like a small amount of fender roll might be useful for safety sake. Hit a hole and it might slice into it...
Awesome video. I think several of us want to see a camera get tagged in an action shot. It's bad ass to see another build from stock to remind us that it can be done.
I'm about to slap Hyper Silver JR12 9x16 ET20 with 215/40R16 tires onto "Miazda". It's a silver 99 1.8 NB and i think i will go with 2° negativ in the front and like 1.5° negative in the back. For the lowering: if you look straight onto the wheels, there should ne a 1/5 inch (5mm) space between the upper end of the tire and the body of the car. Should work if i just roll the fenders or do you think i also need to pull them?
Man I've been eyeballing the bronze 15x8 Kokegi's since they came out, but I didn't have a Miata yet. Now I finally have a Miata, but I'm gonna wait untill I have more money to throw around.
@@XxSavageBearxX I have a Montego Blue so I think bronze would look great. Then again I'm biased because I was looking at getting bronze wheels regardless of what color I got my Miata lol. Except yellow, bronze wheels look weird on yellow.
You have a lot of experience. I'm looking at getting 15x9.5 +29 for my NB and running Ventus RS4's in 245/40. Will I need more than coilovers and a fender roll? What about 225/40's? Thank you!
Hi Greg! I have a question regarding fitment. Recently I have been looking around for a new set of wheels as the previous owner put on a set of Barracuda 17x7.5 which weigh in at ~12kg a piece... (At the time that I bought the car i wasn't aware of the effects of unsprung weight). Many websites state that the lowest offset you can go without rolling your fenders is 35-38mm. However the width of the wheel makes a whole lot of difference. As you put on 9 inch wide wheels and still cleared the bumpers! Would 15x7s with an offset of 10 look similar and also clear the bumpers?
Nb fitment question for dad et all - my dual duty nb has 15x8 et 20 all round. Currently 195/50 ps3s, but i want to move to an actual track tire this year. The particular tire I want to run comes in 195/50 or 225\45. My challenge is, I'm more than happy to roll the shit out of my front fenders but I can't roll the rear, because my rear arches/fenders have been replaced and welded. The body shop told me not to roll them as they will crack if I do. To compromise though they cut the inside lip of the rear arch down to half its original size though so I do have a bit more space than stock. I think 205s will fit fine but not sure about 225s.. Ideally I'd borrow a set and find out.
Best way to get an idea of what you can fit on there, is to put the car on stands, remove the rear coilover and disconnect the sway bar, put the wheel back on, and jack up the suspension arm to simulate wheel travel. Then you can measure the tightest areas to see if you have ~15mm to spare (225-195=30, 15 inside and 15 outside). Keep in mind that some tires run wider and have thicker sidewalls.
@@TheCarPassionChannel Hmmm Ok good thinking! I've got to rebush my suspension atm so will do so then. I don't have much rear camber atm too so i've still got that up my sleave too. Thanks Greg!
Hi I don’t know by chance If you might respond to this message but I’m trying to build a Miata a 1.6 trying to do what you did but I really don’t know where to go or how to move forward I just got done messing with it today and I got 90 pounds of compression on celinder 4 so I gotta go through and build it all by my self pretty much if you could share and knowledge you have I would greatly appreciate it
@@gtbgarage9444 No engine still, once the NB is closer to being "completed" I will be starting the engine build for that car. The block is done and all the parts are ready to go into it 👍
Update to my misfiring in boost: I changed the coil dwell from 4 Ms down to 3 and then 2 Ms and that seems to fix the issue until the car warms up for a while. Do I have bad coils? I'm on ls2s and my car misfired on stock could as well. It usually occurs around 4000 rpm under full throttle
The induction noise is really nice
1 month without you Greg feels like a decade
He speak the true true.
Unpopular opinion: too soon junior is my favorite project on the channel.
Agreed
I rly like it but that's cuz I like seeing him work with the me442
agreed
Agreed as well
Great vid! So glad you like the wheels, they look great on your NB!
That side shot really shows how much miata suspension cambers in under load
Yay!!! Greg's back... Double-Yay!!! for the NB getting some love!
The tan truck at 6:03 slowly creeping up even though Greg is WOT loll that is the Miata life
Aight screw studying for my math test next period Miata Dad is back!
I love Greg he is undeniably underrated.
Just noticed and love that Flying Miata put the ft/lbs on the side of the lugs - nice touch. Helpful for those of us too lazy to look that up.
Let’s gooo, NB content 🔥
the nb looks so much fun to rip on and bang gears. sounds good dude and the wheels are so fresh
I have always loved the 6UL wheels from 949 Racing, but these are making me rethink that love. Excellent video, and beautiful NB!
Lets give NBs some love!!
We need weekly car passion videos!!! This month waiting time kills me!
Awesome video though been looking at these wheels
I got 17x8 FM Kogekis and FM lugnuts for my NC too. Great quality and great price, and they only weight 15.6 lb.
Just put some FM Kogeki 15x8s on my NB as well. Huge amount of extra smiles
I could listen to that exhaust note all day.
What are those tyres like In the rain?
Miata Monday, on a Thursday?!? Heck yes! Been a long month without you senior Greg!
So glad to see you back ❤️
I recognize that on-ramp. It’s right before you get to the moon. Heading back to earth
I love when Craig posts new videos
This video had AAAAAAALLLLLLLLL the good stuff in it. thanks greg!
Perfect timing, I just picked up some buddy club 15s with semi slicks to go with this week.

Whoa, can't believe your sick drifting car control! How have you not done a Miata drift build??
What about the bolt on only dino day? Last I remember it was cut short by low compression. Was the case ever closed?
I’m dying over here with the lack of videos being put out on the channel. Save my sorrow Greg!
I may have missed a video, is that the stock exhaust and intake? Sounds awesome

I have the same wheels from FM! but for the NA. Its my first pair of wheels and was debating over rfps1 or Fm, really happy with Fm!
Sounds nasty!!! I have an NB im trying to get running for the season!! Im pumped!
It looks like you installed the tread facing the wrong way?
that thing looks SICK with that wheel/tire setup
So if I heard you correctly you did no modifications at all to the fender lips? And thank you for the video
Fenders are untouched

Looking forward to seeing you pop the tops off some pistons in this thing!
Perfect wheels with that color Miata
We are matching. Red Turbo NA Miatas. And green n/a NBs
I just got my kogeki 15x 8 with azenis rt660 225 45 zr15 got to wait for it to warm up before I can put them on though. there in bronze
I have a 2005 MSM and wanted to put the same wheels on, do I still need smaller coils or can I run them stock?
Wheel size, that is..😂 Always good vibes here

How did it get Torsten? Did you swap gearbox and diff?

if i have 16x9 wheels what size tire would i need to get to have a similar setup? great video

Kinda liked the green color on that car.. btw, ur wheels looked perfect(preferance)... really liked them.. good size tire for 9.0”
How hard is to drift on a stock NA nb? also, does the Torsen play any difference in this?
What is up with the underhand 2, 3 shift? Where did you pick up that goofy technique?
lmao

Great video. Love the wheels
I’m here dad
So did you ever get broke and boosted running with stock ecu? I don’t understand or you give up and go mega?
Yes I did, it ran fine, went to MS2, ran 5x better.
I have a 2000 too soon junior but its rotting from the inside out 😞
So a set of 15x8 with a plus 36 offset will fit well on an NA or would you have to go with a lower offset?
It will be very easy to fit. Even up to 15x8 +25 will be quite easy and require little or no fender work at all depending on your tire size.
