nmwisima's '96 Miata

[Apolan]

Look man, i have to be honest with you. you're an excelent internet-friend, great conversationalist and possibly a terrific lover; but you just dont have style. But don't loose hope, style doctor is here to help you.

First lets locate the problem. Hm, the car souinds about right from all speakers: JDM car, rwd, torsen diff., bucket seats, Personal, Nardi, Panasport.. so where is the style no no? Well the car is roaming in the no-mans-land. The British racing green, the tactile golden rims and fancy roll-arcs try to push the car into the "POSH RACING ARISTOCRAT" direction, whilst suede Personal wheel, torsen diff, bucket seats and all the red stiching try to push it onto the path of "DAIHARUDU JDM WORIARU".

So the first deed toward salvation is: decide what you are. Are you a racing gentleman, or ar you a crazy motherfucker who is not afraid to live to the fullest!

In the former case, you will need to strip the interior of your loud red stiched suede, and replace it with tan leather or at least give it more class (nardi was a good start). Remember subtlety is the key here. Than more or less what you'll need is a boot-rail, a vintage leather duffle-bag and a thin moustache and you'll be ready to dash through those winding roads in no time!

But since you'll look like you stole the damn thing with your dark skin complexity and greassy pitchblack curly hair, you might as well go all the way and engage the battle mode. Get rid of anything that doesnt make your car faster (okay leave the co-drivers seat - real racers need love to - and while at it, also leave the standard seatbelt for your co driver - real racers need love while racing), than slam the car untill you hear the oil pan grinding on the asphalt, put on some dish and weld in a cage. All thats left is the paintjob - this is easily achievable through dropping a brick on your gass peddal, taping your arm to a steering wheel and challenging a red civic on your local touge. No need to go for slips because all he'll really want is that personal wheel, which belongs to a civic and not a rwd sportscar like a miata anyway.

Tech desk is awaiting your imminent questions.

Best regards,
Style Doctor
