Here we have a JDM MX-5, known as a Eunos, gutted and painted camo. The owner will also throw in various parts to create a Lucra kit car, but points out that they won’t fit this car…hmm. This looks track-ish, but the seller speaks about needing to fully bolt down the cage and also about passing smog. We’re confused AND amused.

Purchased this car on an impulse buy this past spring. It is truly a fun fun car 🙂 This 1990 rhd NA Mazda MX-5 / Miata/ Eunos is completely gutted. The front half of the car is a jdm clip that was grafted to a rear usdm miata by the previous owner. Approximate weight is 1600+ pounds per the previous owner. I call it a poor man’s Lotus Elise 🙂
The JDM 1.6L engine pulls hard. New Trust exhaust, Carbon fiber NRG racing seat (bolted to the cage NOT to the floor), single hoop racing windshield, Nardi steering wheel and matching key, hood pins, fully gutted, one-off custom front bumper, 8 point roll cage, custom Kawasaki Ninja side mirrors, Mazda Speed suspension, Brembo brake kit, full dash, special edition gauges, Rota slipstreams, full kill switches (unhooked), and unsealed headlights. Headlights remain in the upright position. I will throw in a matching HJC helmet (size large) into the deal.
It comes with extra parts including the original windshield, extra fenders, interior bits, a side pipe exhaust, and a carbon fiber exhaust. For the right final bid, I will include a full carbon fiber front end from a Lucra. The Lucra is a supercar and was featured on the Fast and the Furious 6. However, this front end is too tall and too wide to be grafted onto a Miata/Eunos. See http://www.lucracars.com/
It easily passed California smog this past April 2013 with great numbers. The California registration is also current till September 2014 🙂
Needs: roll cage to be bolted in the rear (currently bolted in the front), alignment (I may have it done before the final purchase), body work (if you want it show car perfect), seat brackets if you want to bolt the NRG carbon fiber seat to the floor.
See my YouTube video for more info about the car. The background noise is the car idling in the video

The wife found out about this car and I am forced to sell 🙁 However, the winning bidder will have the hottest and most unique Miata / Eunos 🙂 You will not find anything like this. You are guaranteed to get thumbs up’s and pictures taken whenever you drive this car. I reserve the right to end the auction early for a local sale. Car is sold as-is, where is. CASH-IN-HAND to view/drive the car
