Miata Exhaust

Three or so months ago I trailered the k24 miata to Dales shop and built a custom 3” stainless steel exhaust. It’s not perfect, but it’s tucked up well, serviceable, and sounds pretty fucking good in my opinion. Some info/detail shots from the build and a finished sound clip below. Oh yeah, The car’s been basically done minus an alignment, RDX injectors, and a tune for a few weeks.

The exhaust has a “full/street” setup with a vibrant muffler and a turn down tip going out the back and then what I guess could be called a “track” setup without a muffler and just a turndown after the rear subframe. I doubt I’ll ever run the track setup, but it takes no time to remove the “axleback” and swap in the little turndown that I can just keep in my toolbox.

Miata Bash Bars

 Been a while since I’ve updated this. I’ll try to actually make some posts catching everything up for the time gap but no promises.

For the most recent update, Bash bars! 

The OG miata never had bashbars…not even OEM… and it always made minor fender benders a huge headache. These should allow some smaller hits here and there without the need of pulling the chassis back to install panels. The front is  ZerekFab upper and lower bash bars that fit behind the factory bumper nice and snug. For the Rear I picked up a used TrueFocusFab a while ago. It came without a jack point but added one. I’ll shoot a photo next time I pull the bumper off.
