I cannot tell a lie. Showing that third brake light install really took some courage.

[@iflylo1528]

I cringed...... lol

[@Julian_913]

I highly recommend the J Spec Parts sideskirts. I have them on my NB and it’s easily one of my favorite simple cosmetic mods I’ve ever made. Also perfect if you’re not a fan of the NB Tupperware but still want a more aggressive look

[@Aznboymark91]

So you run the side skirt without any Tupperware? I’ve only seen one pic of a car with only the jspec skirts on and I feel like it would look even better paired with small tupperware, but I haven’t seen enough angles to be 100% on that

[@lipvandip6480]

@@Julian_913 Just had look on your insta, looks great my dude! Real aggressive 👌

[@richmondmcgowan]

Highly reccomend JSpecParts also. Local to me and a good friend, he makes a great product.

[@jasonfreeman509]

Their parts look good but communication and lead times are horrible. Been waiting 2 months for my side skirts with no communication at all. Do not recommend Jspec

[@piotrs7085]

Honestly i prefer stock look. Slightly lower suspension, set of good wheels and roll bar is all what's needed in my opinion.

[@Victor-wp2be]

I’m so excited for the dyno day. Mean green street fighting machine.

[@AlexPerrucci]

Sick rolling shots man! 😎 Was fun shooting with you! Also I'm definitely eyeing one of those diffusers for my car now.

[@corybohn2013]

Looks great! Enjoy watching your build since the beginning

[@someguyonyoutube9220]

Yess! Looks great Greg!! I just bought a 99 miata and I'm so excited to start wrenching on it!

[@Its.Mr.Me.]

It's looking nice Gregg. Keep up the good work.

[@FDB77]

Alex exposed you on Insta so I knew this was coming 🤣Looks sick Kreg!

[@mrfixall]

Nice work. It has come along well. It was exciting to see some new content from you. I still prefer NA'swhich is ironic since my 1992 miata's suspension, brakes, center console and running gear are from a 2001 donor car.

[@Zeusmx5]

The miata dad has spoken

[@ftovr2957]

Lip definitely does the NB1 a lot of favours, even if it's a cheap one. Boot is the best of the bunch!

[@paulmason7871]

diffuser for the win .. looks good 😊

[@keithxiong4863]

Great video love the carbon Miata spoiler!

[@travdripdrip382]

A front lip and garage vary canards completely changed the look of my 03! A cheap lip does wonders!

[@6ixthstage845]

Sweet diffuser. I think I might just make that V3 one work on my MK2.

[@ThomasGallinari]

I am so glad you're showing this trunk spoiler, I'm having a hard time finding a spoiler looking as good as your NA spoiler, and I was considering buying the whole trunk. It's looking sooooo cool man!

[@shirtz69r]

What was your trunk spoiler on the NA Greg? Big fan

[@jspec8334]

@carpassionchannel If your interested in any products hit me up and I'm sure we can work something out 😏

[@kevinwhite1077]

nice video keep them coming

[@jp2246]

Looking great for sure!

[@joryaugustin7114]

YESSSS MIATA MONDAY!!

[@drpiv]

Looks great 🔥

[@luuk4143]

I went with I.L. motorsport's front lip for my NB. Subtle, very cheap and fits perfectly!

[@JC-vc7tf]

Looks great!

[@bossoli60]

That green is gorgeous

[@heavychevy4616]

normally, i dont like green... but... on this car... for some strange reason... i love it! thank u sir

[@fropple]

Maaan! Great vid! 🤩

[@pckanjer]

Looks soo much better!😀

[@lilmike2710]

The diffuser looks sick

[@diosdadocabugao68]

On the 3rd brake light put a thicker gasket to get it flush then use double side tape for final install and maybe light coat of RTV just in case for leak insurance

[@anye0001]

It looks sick brother

[@alexbra282]

Its a good day you posted a video

[@miataguru]

Time for a hard top spoiler too

[@JonnyJonDogg]

oh my that diffuser 😋

[@chrisg998]

I sold my ND. I'm gonna buy a new turbo 3 but then im gonna get an NB and i fully plan on copying your nitrous kit and some other mods maybe too :D

[@mrmidnight32]

Is that defuser steel, aluminum or plastic?

[@mrpistonrecaro6483]

Looks nicer 👍🏽

[@darkb3ar854]

That's a NA Ebay special"Garage Very" lip. I've run the same one for 5 years now except my is 4 seperate pieces drift stitched together. 😅

[@ruftime]

Looking good! So a net weigh gain or loss from the diffuser/CF swap? My guess is a small loss in power/weight😎

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

Negligible difference, if there is any weight gain it's probably only 1-2lbs.

[@shineybikecars]

These mods are the 💣

[@curtiskukuk5556]

I have an 86.5 B-2000 and a 2002 Protege LX. MAZDAS RULE!!!

[@whitebear96]

yup, thats deffo NA front lip, love that moulded trunk,

[@lipvandip6480]

Shame the fitment is awful

[@Mitutumuch]

what you need is Miata fastback top. and duckfin. yessir i fuck with the barney colors dawg.

[@86surge90]

do you think installing an apr wing producing 123 lb force will break that carbon fiber trunk?

[@brokentougers8252]

Greg maybe another video is to upgrade/mode the stock nb1 lights .. Got one and they are sooo bad ! But I prefer nb1 face rather fl so need an idea here !

[@shirtz69r]

Agree. Need some black on there or something

[@tougetito]

i’d advise the oem front lip for nb1

[@joshuaenyart5570]

Hey there! So I got on your website to try to communicate with you but it seems like you’re only communication is through social media which I have none are there any other options?

[@erichansen2790]

I Fricking Love the Green!! But..........Green and Purple are Amazing together and you Defiantly should have left it purple!!! in fact you should have got a purple hood to match it!!! 😀

[@ClarkyXPH]

I hope you have installed some chequer plate over that drain channel on the drive by now. That would be one simple mod to save all mods.

[@NbaMed]

Sickness. Side skirts next?

[@skylarellison8902]

Did you keep the factory trunk springs? CarbonMiata recommended I remove them but they don’t have a solution to give the trunk enough “pop” to get out of the latch.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

I left mine in place!

[@mhh3]

Does the Diffuser had any effect?

[@joshuaenyart5570]

I have been binge listening to your videos since I found you a month or so ago I’m wondering if you ever tried to max out horsepower on 91 octane just to see where that was before you went to E 85 yes there is a video on that I must have missed it so far

[@mostlyuselessgarage]

RTheory rear diffuser looks awesome on your NB! They make some very nice parts for the Miata

[@haiboj4979]

How much would you think a regular stock NA8 can benefit from a Megasquirt and a tune over the stock ECU?

[@SXF_turbo]

10-15hp

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

@@SXF_turbo At MOST. I netted 6whp on my BP4W (113->119) from a 91 octane dyno tune. 100% stock everything else. If you have bolt ons the gains will be greater

[@jefftoonstra5087]

That dude’s reaction tho 😂

[@benendres2122]

The “ds style” front lip for the nb looks way better imo.

[@jeanboy9108]

now you need the v2 dual led tails, if you see the orange car on carbon miata, its mine! :)

[@38tech]

Looks yummy for sure!!!

[@motionelco]

Can’t find a rear diffuser for my NC :(

[@TimotoRacing]

The best an cheapest way is to paint the headlights black inside an get some black bulbs for the front and rear indicators

[@Grs662]

Where do you get the wrap you used? and is that something that's easy enough to do on your own?

[@shaoyang5650]

It’s not something you can do on your own. You at least need someone who knows how to wrap a car to do it.

[@sjorsangevare]

He has a video on it a couple videos back

[@shaoyang5650]

Car looks great, now only if we can do something about the driver😂😂 jk great work man keep it up

[@corybohn2013]

What about doing a video on wire tucking?

[@ianroele1350]

You should also put a maruha crank in this car : )

[@TheAdatto]

Get the mark 2.5 headlights and bumper.

[@mixalisstathis274]

where them sideskirts at???

[@TheCoburgProject]

The lip kinda looks like it's meant for the nb2 bumper

[@jackg5094]

R Theory, Canadian made! If you want that car to look even better you need to install R Theory's solid aluminum side skirts.

[@cameronyoung2004]

Dude when are you gonna do some track stuff?

[@revlimiternet]

Not bad sir! Not bad at all.

[@jeshailstrails1463]

Missed opportunity having a Hulk Nitrous Miata with that purple trunk

[@roddydykes7053]

Petition to hire a concrete crew come fix CarPassionChannel’s driveway

[@Grumpini]

Heard a lot of Carbon Miata products take a long time to ship. Any word on that?

[@hentiajp]

I'm guessing that's why they sent him the trunk off one of their shop cars

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

If it's anything that's made to order, it's definitely to be expected, so it's probably best to email them before ordering to get an ETA on a particular product

[@hydro5580]

hey gregg i love your videos! :) do you think you could make a video on the differences between all the different years of NA and NB? Just dont know anything about things like "shortnose" and other stuff like that.

[@shirtz69r]

Plenty of info around bud. Short nose refers to the crank on early 1.6 cars as they are prone to wobble and die.

[@mastercricket7626]

🔥🔥🏎🏎💪🏽🤘🏼✌🏽🤙🏽

[@koolerthanapolarbear]

my biggest gripe with carbon miata is the shipping. all their stuff looks so cool, but damn, shipping kills it.

[@Lecherous_Rex]

I'm trying to blend into traffic, both visually and audibly. No hood exits, screamer pipes. Swapping the bov for bpv. Granted if I lived some place that wasn't all up in my business about vehicles I'd probably still worry more about function than form but after both miatas are the way I want them and I'm convinced I'm not attracting mod nazis then yeah aero and high visibility is a go.

[@sebastienseb919]

I highly recommend NO SIDE SKIRTS MADE BY ANYONE. Make your own out of polyurethane as I did. My 2000 Miata is black on black. Red and black seats. A 2018 Porsche Cayman front bumper cover was incorporated into the original Miata cover (not fiberglass but flexible polyurethane epoxy). Rear tailights were handmade as well and look like an exotic car. Rollbar has leds that show when top is down. There are no emblems. Rear bumper cover will be done next with another exotic rear bumper. Car is not lowered with 18 inch black wheels.😁😁😁

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

Where can I see pics of the setup??

[@sebastienseb919]

@@TheCarPassionChannel I'll post pics when car is up for sale. Most will not be able to afford it considering the amount of time, labor and money I've put into it. It's all good. Not desperate to sell. 😁😁😁

[@AMGW202]

Please fix that third brake light and the Panel gaps. It will look 💯 better 🤩

[@mixalisstathis274]

slight bumpercut, lift the exhaust a bit and integrate the diffusor, please.

[@histandard31]

If you cut out the rear bumper, do you think the rear diffuser could tuck up a little higher?

[@mmcharlie]

I think he said the limiting factor to how high he could go was the muffler

[@kaankorucan9695]

please change that front bumper and headlights with nb facelift model

[@user-ye2dy8jx5j]

Really Nice and everything but all of this things are illegal in some countries (Including mine)

[@adri1leusha]

"Installing this diffuser will be the easiest thing to do on your miata, first remove that 17mm bolt..." Bruh, I tried removing that 17mm bolt when working on my (30 yo, a tad rusty) NA, it was the hardest thing I ever had to do on my miata :p (didn't even suceed, damn thing is welded with rust)

[@3lm3rfudd]

Nooo, the coupon doesn't work for the R Theory hood vents 😭

[@cooperturbo4598]

❤

[@gkkillerr]

i wish carbon miata actually spent more time making thier body parts fit and work as OEM. Having to do the third brake light like that honestly looks horrible and there is no excuse for why they cant make it work as factory. Espically with how expensive they sell these body parts for.

[@imSchwaggy]

that diffuser is wildly expensive $300 when there's the basically the exact same thing on ebay for $50 another $5 at your local hardware store fr 2 pieces of metal to add the mount holes on the front and boom.

[@PanditaP]

your cars are so nice, I think you should ditch the ebay lip and get something baller off of rev9

[@BuddhaOfDarkness]

Bigger wing please

[@lipvandip6480]

The price of that R theory diffuser is ridiculous, you literally showed us how to make the same thing for a 10th of the price a year or two ago 😂 not a chance I'd pay 400 for that....

[@bryansenulis7242]

Looks like the red car from movie cars ..lightning McQueen

[@1one3_Racing]

Kinda looks like Nemo's dad from the front.

[@Patrick94GSR]

Front lip is a no from me dawg. OEM Optional NB1 style looks so much better. It also evens out the height of the front bumper lower edge, as the stock bumper with no lip is lower in the middle and looks a bit weird.

[@barnoldjc93]

still feel like this need the Tupperware kit

[@luis720lm]

Woo!

[@squirrelm3195]

I put a BMW badge from a junkyard and that gets a lot of comments (lol). Cost me like $3

[@ricepony33]

Progressive NOS controllers exist…

[@bryansenulis7242]

I say buy a frs and do a motor swap.
