Here's my baby, a 1990 Mazda Miata with, at the time of writing, 144,xxx miles. I ended up trading my beloved 540i/6 to a friend who wanted another project, he was pretty much done with this car. His taste in mods, both aesthetic and performance oriented, is much like my own, so it was a no brainer.

Mod list is as follows:
here's the compiled mod list so far:

Greddy turbo kit
Begi fmu
Starion fmic,leak tested prior to install
Custom intercooler piping
993 bov
1.8 dif
Act clutch
a/f and boost gauge
Momo 08 drift wheel 350mm
Konig rewinds 15x7s
Falken ziex 512s
Mech boost controller
Tokico shocks/struts + springs = 1.5 in. drop
R package lip, nla from dealer
Racing beat style bar
Jackson racing cat back exhaust
Jackson racing cat
Mazdaspeed oil cap
Valve cover professional painted.
Walbro 130psi fuel pump.
JVC cd player wit aux port on face plate for ipod
Pioneer speakers

I went ahead and turned her up to 10 lbs of boost. I think it was worth it. (duh) G-tech says 196 hp now. Not sure how accurate that is, but it gives one an idea.

Anyways, here's some pics:
