I bought the leather on ebay. It's not all that great but a lot better than before. Will eventually try to find a good condition black interior.

So after I hopped in and drove a 5 speed miata with no ps for the first time ever! (Didn't stall and drove like a pro, this was my first time driving a manual car) I have the urge to do a 5 speed swap. But I wouldn't mind a paint job or new wheels either. So I am at a stand still.

-5 speed swap? (w58)
-new wheels
-diy paint/professionally wrap

What do you guys think I should do? And if I go with the 5 speed route, would it be less complicated if I just pulled the whole engine with transmission out? Would also be a great time to do a rebuild. I never pulled any engine out of any car so this would be my first. However I have changed a clutch on an S14 before.


Here are some pictures from this past Canibeat Monthly Gatherings. Missing Michael's (MXT4life) and some other red SC that I forgot owner's name.

Also if you do the manual swap just jack up the car high and remove the trans. Latter down the road when you you do a gte swap "everyone does it sooner or latter" remove the complete motor set wit the trans and everything together.

Im planning to have a sc meet sometime at the end of this month! Im trying to gather all the sc in the bay area to come through so yeah haha. I never been to calaveras but I highly doubt I can break traction or touge with my wheel and tire setup. Maybe after manual swap and lsd! Have you done a manual swap in our SCs before?
