Miata Transformation In 20 Minutes!

[@declanmahoney1077]

I literally started my NC miata build because of your videos! This is E X A C T L Y how I would build my NA if I modded it. Keep it up, guys!

[@SpiritDriven]

Yo that’s means so much thank you! I want to do a NC build so bad

[@wonderbubble3980]

Stance isn't my scene, but this is just such a wonderfully done build, absolute props to y'all for it! Not to mention, this video is so nicely put together. Covers everything important and shows all the long processes but never drags and kept my attention the whole way through. Just nice work through and through.

[@SpiritDriven]

Thanks so much for the kind words! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@damme78]

Stunning build, looks like you had nearly no rust to fix and could go straight to the good stuff. Nearly all Mx-5’s over here (UK) are rusted like a ship’s anchor ⚓️

[@SpiritDriven]

Thank you! 100% rust free

[@selfdriven1343]

I just recently found your channel and very much enjoy your videos. In particular, the relaxed and well-worded way of how you present your projects. Maybe I am just getting old 😂, but I cannot watch that hectic stuff with people going on for ages without actually saying or doing something.

[@SpiritDriven]

Thank you!!!! I try to cut out all the bs and just get straight to the point lol Thanks for the support!

[@jillybeean6178]

I need a link to everything 😂 just got my 97 and so many things you did would be an absolute gem!

[@36ELGALAN]

Just watched your video, I really enjoyed the journey, Your NA looks clean AF that blue color is sweet. Great editing, you and your fiance are a miata restoring power couple. #PROPS 2 YOU BOTH

[@SpiritDriven]

Much appreciated Dude! Really means a lot 🤘🏼

[@adenbenedick7763]

in the process of buying an NA and after watching this video, I think ill plan on being broke for a while xD This is definitely one of my favorite builds, thank you so mush for sharing to all of us dreamers out there!

[@adenbenedick7763]

DUUUDE the shot at 10:45 is so awesome!!

[@SpiritDriven]

Lol honestly If you can do all your own work it’s pretty cheap! And good luck finding your Miata! Appreciate your support dude 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤝

[@ansoncarter5326]

Bruh I'm following in your foot steps. My miata is on jack stands and I just got my hard top stolen. I'm glad I found your vid because its so smooth and simple not much talking, not over explaining its just right. This is the best vid on miatas I've seen yet 👏 😍. I see your hard work both on vid and In the car, my girl is also learing how to build cars too, then we got to teach her how to drift. But I appreciate you this will definitely help me bounce back harder than ever. And I love the wink app that's sick. 👌🏾 subscribe! Easy no brainer just do it.

[@SpiritDriven]

Hey dude! Sorry about your hardtop that blows But I just want to stay I’m proud of you for the drive you’ve got And thank you for the kind words 🙏🏼

[@OFeeliamyhinny]

-14:50 Love those wheels! What kind are they? Size too? Everything looks tite. Very nice!

[@gordonriley5277]

Great video the way you shot this video - showing the work you were doing was truly excellent I've booked marked this video to use as a resource for when I do some of the upgrades you've demonstrated here -thank you!!!

[@tpatronan]

Awesome seeing it all come together like this. I discovered your channel recently and it's been a huge inspiration to build my NB along with you. Excited to see what's next - keep it up!

[@SpiritDriven]

Thank you so much! Truly means everything to us 🙏🏼

[@GooseyX01]

I aspire to be like you guys, and just people who even own a miata. I can not find any on the market for my budget since prices of them are just rising and rising. One day I hope to build my own miata, its been my dream car for as long as I can remember and I'm always in just awe when I see them.

[@SpiritDriven]

Thanks so much dude! I know the prices are getting out of control but I can almost guarantee the prices will go up even more because it’s going to be hitting the “classic car” territory. We believe in you! Just keep on grinding , stack the cash and you’ll get a sick Miata. Just be patient and check 2 times a day on Fb marketplace and offer up 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@SpiritDriven]

@@prometheus1901 thanks so much! We try to give everyone the confidence to build something in there own image 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@@SpiritDriven I have owned all the MX-5 models. I had the 93 club, then I got a Eunos NB1. Then my wife got the NCGT, then she traded that for the ND-RF Brembo. I have a 2010 370Z today. I love all the Miata's.

[@SpiritDriven]

Thanks! It didn’t help as much as I thought it would but it did make a difference

[@peterbonnez]

@@SpiritDriven Thanks Sal, I'm unsure whether to do mine or not. I have an early NA with BBR turbo kit, it's been in the paintshop all winter and now back to it's original Classic bright red. I've done 3 rallies this past month and 3 more coming up in May including a hill climb at Prescott. I'm enjoying your videos. Cheers from UK, I love my MX-5's, all 3 of them...

In love with the car! I’m a fellow NA owner, I have a 97 and you’ve gave me so much guidance and inspiration! I didn’t see the audio install video, I recently purchased a double din and I can’t figure out where to get a dash kit to mount the head unit in, did you custom make yours ?

[@SpiritDriven]

Thanks man! Dude I want a black 97 so bad! We might reupload the audio video but we weren’t feeling it at the time it was ready We’ll give it another look and decide if we should post it or not

Nah we haven’t found a nice bracket yet I heard Best Buy had one but I haven’t tried it yet

When u put the metal roof do u have to remove the cabriolet roof or no ?

[@SpiritDriven]

So it’s actually made out of some kind of boating material from what I’ve been told You can choose to keep the soft top inside the car, it does not have to be removed if you end up wanting to use the hardtop We just chose to remove the soft top so we can add more space to the interior of the cabin
