Nice. I would love an s2k... but they go for almost twice the money of an NC miata... so I'll have an NC instead. Test drove one the other day and it was great.

I got Flyin' Miata light wheels, stage 1 clutch and a 8.4 lb flywheel for my NC2. It is a really fun car. Have you upgraded your coolant reservoir tank? I got the Moroso tank, just in case.

nice video. too far from steering wheel. Same issue here bc I have long legs. added a 2 inch spacer and made a world of difference. nice driving regardless

Yeah, that's why the wheel and hub weren't full installed with trim and the horn. Got a 2" ASR and yes I fit in the car perfectly now. Knees are free and wheel is the perfect distance.

@@nogokart cool. yeah, I got a 2 inch spacer and it transformed it for me. before that my knees hit the wheel and couldn’t heel toe smoothly. I also just got some Jass 1 inch lowering brackets for the stock seat, but will have to see if I like the position on that bc it only drops the rear of the seat and not sure I like the angling of it. but the wheel spacer is a game changer for tall drivers.

@p1fly My understanding is that a header adds less than 10hp on a stock engine. But, it gets rid of the precat which is prone to burn out in track driving, reduces weight over the nose, supports future power mods, and makes great noises.

@@matthewmitten83 I suppose it depends on the header? IIRC, Racing Beat say 8hp on their website, and BBR claim 1hp more than "a competitor" which looks an awful lot like RB. Stock power as measured at the brochure is 167 for stick or 158 auto. That's what I'm going off of. If you've found differently yourself or have a source, I'd like to know it. I was planning on going with a header just based on what I found; if it's a full 20hp I'd be stoked!

I love both S2k and Miata but for the ease of maintenance and lower cost, I would take the NC miata with 2.5 swap.
