Fucking Miata forums...

For those who dont know, my S13 has been sitting like a piece of shit for god knows how long.. almost 2 years now. I've been demoted to driving a `99 Miata since, which I've had the luxury of beating on and eliminating useless OEM parts.. things like radio, seats, cruise control, power steering.. all got either thrown away or sold.

The car now rides on pretty wide 245 sized S03 tires.. and while the fucking car has no balls (power), atleast the shit handles pretty well. Braking could be better, after a bit of beating they start to overheat.. but thats not the biggest problem.

See, 240SX owners are lucky.. the car has space. You wanna throw tires in the back? sure. You wanna put a fat chick in your car? NO... DONT.. but, if you really havent had sex for a while.. well, okay.. fit her in, take her home and do your duty. See, the 240SX.. regardless if its KA, SR, or RB, V8.. whatever its fucking powered with, puts a decent smile behind your face.

NOT THE MIATA. The stock motor makes me want to puke so bad.. its so fucking weak. I am always shifting trying to make the car fuckin move.. and its like.. okay, 2k, 3k, 4k,.... 6k, 7k! Jesus.. it takes SOOO long to get the car to redline so that the POS can actually bone out.

Okay. Here is my beef. Here is the reason of this post. My beef isnt so much with the car, but MORE with the damn forum.

MIATA.NET

See, you 240 owners (and me, when my car was running).. we have the luxury of places like Zilvia. See, Zilvia is home. When you get tired of the stuck up pricks on Fresh Alloy and their smartass "I've gone to school for 40 years and still live with my mom" responses, you know that you can come back home to Zilvia. Talk some shit, not get banned. You can come here and laugh. You can even wake up and have some cereal here, joke around.. nothing will happen. Its just a great place.

BUT NOT MIATA.NET.. fuckin christ. This place is moderated by 60 year old geezers. They all say how "wonderful" that little puppy is, and how the motor is "peppy" -- if you install wide wheels, they complain and say you'll ruin your wheel bearings. I mean, the stupid shit I hear on there. People want to install cruise control. WTF?! Whats with you people. Its a fuckin roadster! Drive that shit till it explodes.

I dunno.. I get pissed off because if they arent old and "against modifications," they are young neopolitan bastards with their snide remarks. You know, the type of kids that probably wore neckties to school and call their mom "mummy." God I wanna reach through the monitor and slam their head onto a desk with my fists.

One guy today corrected my spelling of "contageous" (contagious).. yeah, thanks for the correction Webster, I'll make note of that next time I sweep the floor with your stupid face.

Yeah, I have anger problems. I like to break things, really.. I do. But most of all, I like coming on Zilvia every once and a while.. and post stupid shit like this. I cant say why, because honestly.. this forum is SO SLOW it makes me want to barf sometimes. But regardless, atleast this place is kickback.

I end my post by saying, fuckthemotherfuckingfuckers.

I knew I was right to call bullshit when people told me that the grass was greener on the other side of the fence.

[ThatGuy]

Ahhhh, the mind of Mamos. Tis a scary, yet familiar place.

Here.. here is the thread that started it off...
http://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread...2&page=1&pp=25

One idiot decided to sit down in front of his PC, login to Miata.net forums, click on "post" and write about how the car needs a beveled keyhole so that this tool, can find the fucking HOLE when inserting his key.

Serious, its idiots like this that we share the road with. Isnt this why Metro exists? So that ass-hats like him dont have to insert a key, he can now insert a dollar to ride the bus. All of the 26 stops during his bus-ride home should give him plenty of time to read a "guide-to-inserting-your-key-into-the-keyhole" book.

agh.. idiots.

okok.. while this thread is still alive and unlocked (unlike the viceroy thread, which i made sure was swiftly destroyed)...

I would like to explain to folks the necessities of owning a car that is weak, like a small little child, like a miata.

when you own a car that is:
a) balanced
b) underpowered
c) gay
d) fun
e) obd-2

you have to be very careful with your modifications. see, there are great companies out there (like flyinmiata) who understand what it takes to give this car balls. however, flyinmiata, much like REARcornersdotcom, is very expensive. and being that i dont even like this car so much at the moment, i am very chosey about what money gets spent.

i mean, all my fun money should be going to the 240 and getting that car back from the paint shop. but, in the meantime.. like a crackhead, i need immediate gratification and satisfaction. rummaging through storage has made me somehow manage to fit 240SX modifications on this damn miata.

example.. 245/45/16 s03 tires. i had them as extras.

now, this POS comes stock with 15" wheels.. they're like 15x5 or some weak shit like that. no way i am keeping 205 tires on there, its weak and no traction. so, i bought some enkei rp-f1's (16x8 4x100) and installed the 245's. Technically, they should have been 245/35.. but only toyo makes those.. and i dont like toyo. so i managed to roll the fenders, ditch the liners, and enjoy eccessively wide tires on such a small car. its fun really..

but see, you cant get too crazy.. because this car still blows. it throws check engine lights for stupid reasons, like evap control, egr, etc.. hence the reason i chucked the check engine bulb out the car.

the seats sucked, they were stupid leather seats that dont hold shit in. so those were chucked and sold to some mazda miata loving idiot. seriously, these people respond to for-sale ads for STOCK WHEELS. CHROME. LEATHER. I mean, ive never come across such a weird demographic of idiots.

i installed FD seats, schroth harnesses, and a rollbar. now i'm stuck in the car. i ditched the OEM airbag wheel and installed my trusty momo. a set of tein HA coilovers and some swaybars. now, atleast, i can drive this thing without throwing up from the lack of traction and LEAN, dive, etc...

so guys, this has been my life. i got married, burried, and now drive a gay miata... until my 240 comes back from widening and paintening (dont think thats a word, but whatever).

serious.. this is my advice. if you like your car, dont get married.. because you cant spend money on it anymore. and, if you do get married, buy a 12-cylinder before the ceremony.. like a lamborghini or some shit that will make her think you're clinically insane (like murdock from the a-team). atleast you'll have a mans car, and it will give you a noble death should you decide to launch off a mountain and end your life.

me, i am stuck.. driving a fags car that handles good but lacks just about any other form of fun, be it braking or acceleration. i get to take the top down, WOOO.. how gay is this shit. i never cared about a top in my 240, i just wanted to beat people up in the canyons.

i will say, that the other day i handed a WRX STI HIS FUCKING ASS in the canyons here.. and it was very satisfying. If only that fucker didnt turn off the road, i would have enjoyed telling him i beat his 300 or more HP AWD advantage car, with my wife's weaksauce shitmobile.

god i need my 240 back

[projekt_s13]

hahaha damn

Its a total different world on other car forums.

[FaLKoN240]

I feel bad for you, having to browse shitty forums like that.

That's because I hate looking at the Anglefire logo. In other words, the pic didn't work, thus it gets deleted.

[Star.Engineering]

wow, man that forum is so... different. from this one, the same way this one is driff. from a honda forum...

[TurDz]

Hi old_s13,

Good to see you around again. I think some people are just bored with their car, and start thinking of random and odd things to do to it. I would know, I was a bit like that when I was driving a Maxima.

I think you also have to see that Zilvians are almost a homogenous group. Anyone that doesn't have the hardcore attitude for racing and modification is quickly put down. Pesonally I love racing, but I always emphasize balance with mods since my car is a daily driver 90% of the time.

I'm guessing that with Miata owners, there are racing enthusiasts, but there are also those who just like to modify for the sake of modifying (i.e. car shows, vanity, etc etc). The folks you ran into were of the later type. The best thing you can do is just ignore them and try to find others with similar attitudes towards the car.

On a different note, I don't think the Miata lacks power. When my friend switched from a nicely modded s13 (stock engine) to a Miata, I test drove his stock Miata and I loved everything about it. I was perfectly sized for it, it handled like a 240 with a spring/shock combo, and the power was similar to a stock KA. Maybe I'm just used to an underpowered car.

[P4rD0nM3]

[BOROSUN]

i love my chuki miata(nb). i plan to get the biggest sway bar first, then slamit with stance coilovers and squeeze sportmax 002 15x8 0 w/ 195/50. maybe a jackson supacharger in the future.

right now, its stock with hard dog roll bar. my only compliant is, i cant stand the body roll and the damn carpet smell. so, the whole interior is going to be stripped.

There's a solution to the slow loading pages on Zilvia:

You can also be a premie to take away ads.

[Dutchmalmiss]

swap in an sr and call it a day. that way, it's another reason to go back to zilvia.

[SiI40sx]

Damn Ive NEVER been on any other forums before, zilvia is the first and only forum I go on, damn looks like I get it dead on the first time around!

[1Via!]

MY buddy's old 93 miata with a greddy :ghey: turbo kit on it and other minor stuff was fun, but at least it was mildly fast.

And other car forums suck balls. Rx7 forums, miata forums, lexus forums, etc.

A few weeks ago after installing some suspension ish on a buddy's c320 mercedes benz and joining a couple forums he surfs to see whats up, I boggled their minds by suggesting they look into these revolutionary things called polyurethane bushings. Apparently, no one makes them for MBs.

The world really is made up of countless idiots.

So yeah, see.. its not the car that angers me the most, its the idiots on the damn forum. I cant stand when people give their cars name, or call them "her," I mean.. get a life. Its a fucking piece of metal that you should enjoy beating the crap out of. People on the forum are so politically correct, theres pretty much no shit talking.

A few weeks back a couple idiots started getting their environmental panties in a shuffle when i made a post asking if anyone has removed the charcoal/evap system from the car and bypassed the ECU sensing for those items. I got responses like..
"Why would you do that, it wont give you more power and will hurt the environment"
or
"You wont be able to pass smog and will be seriously fined for doing that to your car"

its like, "thanks a lot Mr. EPA, how about I recirculate YOUR exhaust gasses back into your mouth, asshole"

You read posts about "I installed my Racing Beat Dual Mufflers and boy does that puppy growl!" ...

....

WOW. From 126 RWHP to 127 RWHP. Oh yes, I can feel the power now.

Check this out, the 99-00 is equipped with dual cats, it has a pre-cat built into the exhaust manifold. Two o2 sensors, main cat, and a crap muffler in the rear. Pretty much, NO DECENT JAPANESE exhausts exist for this car. Its all "cat-back" crap. I dont want a damn muffler. I want a full exhaust.

So now, I am stuck. $400-500 on a Racing Beat header. Then, I have to custom make a mandrel bent exhaust from the header back. RSR doesnt make anything... its really sad.

The car has potential, but the tuner market for this car sucks..... what to do.

Oh heres another funny thing, people "polish and chrome" just about any stupid part they can on the car.. thats considered a "modification."

"Hey guys, I polished my turn signal stalks and my valve cover, check it out!"

WHOOP DEE DOO! I can just feel my penis shriveling into the shape of a vagina, THANKS MIATA.NET!

kokokkok enough.. i cant take this anymore.

you cant be serious...id pick a miata over an s13 any damn day...i see your argument, but i wouldnt go as far as demoted...

Nah, I'd take an S13 over a Miata.

I did know a guy who was swapping small block 250s into Miatas though, those looked fun =)

That thing sounds sick in person. But not as wild as the RX8's with rotaries in the sport car race.

If they can't get their key into the keyhole in the dark. I wonder what else they can't get in the hole at night...

[infinitexsound]

[QUOTE=LB.Motoring]best miata.


that car ran a endurance race, supposedly it didnt finish... nice car still tho...
quit ur griping about the miata and just be happy it saves u money on gas... a car is a car, u didnt start out with a ferrari to begin with.. u started with a 240sx...

[drift freaq]

I would not be caught dead in a Miata, hahhahahaha. Actually take it back, I might give one a spin or two. I would never make it a daily though. Nor would I pick it for a track car. Of course I have been accused on more than one occasion of being Pro Nissan. Hell ya fuck them all hahahhahhahhahahhahha. On the serious side Mike my man, I feel your frustration and understand. Now get your wife a Lotus Elise or Exige and be done. hahhahhahhaha
Only Mazda I ever really wanted was an FD and I just could not warrant it based on its cost vs reliability factor.

Fear the creeping feeling of a BMW in ones future.

[xtremsiege2]

my dad bought one at 60, since $ wasnt an issue really for him for a car like that i made fun of the car every chance i got until he sold it finally and unfortunitly picked up what i wanted to eventually buy (s2000 honda) Needless to say when he was modding the miata and told me of his future plans i really wanted to kill myself because none of them involved the motor and he still claimed it was "peppy" like u said

turdz> On a different note, I don't think the Miata lacks power.

Stock versus stock, the 240SX has something the miata doesnt - balls and practicality.

Honestly, the car BEGINS to move at 3500-4000 rpms. That means that the rest of the powerband is more or less, completely useless. The chassis itself flexes more than my S13 hatch ever did, but I guess that should be expected of a roadsterrrr. I never noticed it nor was it an issue in the S2000. A similar car with a high powerband, but atleast the car has more power.

Stock, the miata leans a LOT.. I feel like I am on a boat. Swaybars/coilovers resolved a lot of that. The Mazda build quality is just not up there with NISSAN. Sometimes I felt that NISSAN lacked in certain areas when I compared it with Toyota. Well, this is the way I feel about Mazda. I think the best thing about the NB Miata, is the damn shift assembly. Its very close together, very similar feel of precision like the NSX. Honestly, I can say its better than the S13 w/ B&M.. which I like a LOT.. but has more angle to it. The B&M is nice, but lacks some angle.

So even though the SR is a 2.0 and the Miata motor is a 1.8, the thing barely wants to stay on.. while the SR is always ready to go. You need to drop from 2-3k to get the car moving.. and thats that, its just annoying. Not to mention, the lack of interior space is far from great. With the 240, you can actually throw wheels in the back and go the track, alignment shop, etc...

[1Via!]

Lol
Its like when I got warned by THREE moderators on a MR-S forum for saying "Fuck." Fuck, why the fuck don't you just fuckin use the built in censor software. Shit.

So turboz is out of the picture because its obd2?

[Farzam]

I had a Miata.
I also used to treat women nicely.

Now I own a 240sx.
And I make my girlfriend eat leftover dog food.
