I have a set of these sitting in the garage ready to go on the Miata next Friday. We'll see how they do on the street and rain pretty quickly. Also, my stack of extra wheels/tires is getting silly.

When I was in an apartment I rented one of the garages for $100 a month. It was well worth the money as it kept the car out of the elements, had a storage place for car parts and other outside...

Have you looked at the ZZP 4 piston upgrade? It should come with everything you need to get them to work at a very reasonable price IMO

The latest event. Good enough for 1st in CAM. Also, some spiciness coming through the finish on the first run.

I autocross mine fairly regularly with success. I've done wheels/tires, camber plates, and downpipe/tune. Otherwise, the car is stock. At autox, you're not as punished by the lack of power, and are...

I would expect the only place you may run into issues would be the strut. If you do, a little grinding or 3-5 mm spacer should solve the problem. I run 19x10.5 et 22 in the front with no rubbing, but...

This was what Sam Strano's take was as well. The weight helps plant the back and gets the power down.

I'd imagine they fit without spacers. RS brakes are significantly smaller and the suspension has a little more room

Look up what people are doing in FS with their Camaro SS. The wheel/tire sizes will be the same. There's a fast guy locally that runs 275s square (the front is fairly pinched), but he has success...

It's almost certainly better to leave it in 2nd. The time to shift is rarely made up by the faster acceleration. Then you have to factor in the change of on/off throttle balance and any imperfections...

I would agree. Full E85 should result in using about 30% more fuel. Going from e0 to e10 I would expect maybe a 5% difference.

I know someone that totalled a C5 Z06 a few years ago at an autox. Progressive covered it and then dropped him. That seems like the best-case scenario to me.
