Remember Mike's poor car?

Well, it's being reborn in another shell. First he has to take all the bits off the old one.

Another Mazdaspeed in the shop - this one's here for a full intake kit installation.

20 horsepower coming up!

This Mazdaspeed is in the shop for a 5-speed and a 3.90 rear end to go with the existing FM II conversion.

Matt Simpson sent us a picture of him having fun with his FM II on some little racetrack in Europe called the N�rburgring.

Bill was down in SoCal at MX5 Miatafest this weekend for..

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 11:47:12 -0400

um.. work. :D As you can see from the smile the event was great! Shouts out to Mazda R&D West, Socalm, Racing Beat, Goodwin Racing, 949 Racing, all of our customers, and everyone else who attended for an excellent event!

A recent customer car.

FM Stage 2 suspension, 17x9 wheels with 255-series tires, roll bar - and of course, one of our superchargers with a reflashed ECU.

Oops..

One Quaife, coming right up!

Check these out- 2000cc Injector Dynamics fuel injectors.

They're on their way to fuel a customer's ~600 rwhp E85 Hydra turbo beast! Yowzers!

The NC is now up and running with the new engine!

We've missed this car over the last couple of weeks. Welcome back, Nancy.

Brandon and Mike head to a track day at High Plains Raceway.

Is this the coolest tow rig ever?

V8 Miatas make excellent touring cars!

Thu, 24 Jun 2010 16:56:32 -0400

Unless of course it's June in British Columbia... :D

Miata archaeology!

We found this in the engine bay of a Mazdaspeed, and we think it's how Mazda installs spring clamps. Slide it over the hose, pull the red clamp off and BANG! it's tight.

Steven Searle was autocrossing with his very fast Miata over the weekend.

He has an FM stroker engine with an FM II and 3071 turbo, stuck to the ground with AFCOs. He missed the fastest time of the day by only 0.046 seconds and came home with a massive smile on his face.

We've received a ton (literally) of our new FM V-Maxx suspension kits, and they're starting to ship out today.

Nancy, our 2006, is getting a new engine with forged internals.

Wed, 16 Jun 2010 16:49:28 -0400

There's nothing wrong with the old one, but this will let us push the limits on this car.

Russ spins some wrenches on a Mazdaspeed.

You don't see a lot of titanium grey hardtops!

...and that's it for Mike's car.

Thu, 10 Jun 2010 11:29:54 -0400

Someone pulled in front of him without looking. What a shame.

Yet another highly experienced Miata joins us at FM!

Wed, 09 Jun 2010 19:19:18 -0400

This is Mike's new car, and it's rapidly becoming much more competent under his care. No word on when it will have matching body parts, though.

Bill's little 1992 is a lot prettier on the outside.

Tue, 01 Jun 2010 19:24:32 -0400

Yuk.

It turns out Bill has a hole in his life that is shaped exactly like a tired 1.6 yellow Miata.

Wed, 26 May 2010 19:05:37 -0400

We had no idea until this showed up.
