Vehicle description

I am selling my fun daily commuter car. I have owned this for about 4 years now. I have been systematically going through the car front to back replacing, repairing and upgrading things. Things like vacuum lines, belts, hoses, fluids (including diff and trans fluid) are new and all synthetic or sometimes synthetic blend oil. The car has a number of factory options, all of which work: Cruise control, air conditioning, power mirrors, torsen type limited slip diff, power windows.
What needs to be rebuilt on the car: The car is not yet to 150k miles, so as a preventative maintenance item it is about time to replace the timing belt and oil seals for cams and crank, water pump. I have the parts and will change those if you meet asking price, otherwise I will include the parts. I have done so much to this car I would not bat an eye driving it across country even before the preventative maintenance. .unless my luggage didn"t fit in the trunk. I have been driving it 350 miles per week for the last few months and it is 100% reliable. I have parked it just this week after a thorough clean so I can sell it. If I can drive it in stop and go traffic on a 120 F day with the AC running and the temp needle doesn"t move, it will do fine in your climate.
What has been rebuilt/upgraded:
Replaced rear wheel bearings and hubs Have ~1” file of maintenance records and history Custom built center console with relocated cup holders Mazdaspeed Miata NB steeringwheel with airbag properly wired up Custom upholstered aluminum Kirkey lightweight aluminum race seat (~$450 new) Upgraded 190LPH high pressure fuel pump and replaced the aged rubber emissions related lines so you won"t get check engine light surprise
New iridium plugs and wires less than 10k miles ago Koyo 37mm rad and full silicone coolant hose kit Rear bumper aero cut Garage Vary style aero rear fender flares Custom front aero bumper Custom shrouded cold air intake ducted in from the wiper cowl (makes an incredible growl)
Hard dog Hard bar roll bar Black canvas top with glass window in great shape ~4 years old 16” NB aluminum wheels with brand new (~5k miles) BFG G-Force comp 2 A/S tires in 225/50/16
Custom 6 speaker audio system with tiny sub and amp Brand new black euro tail lights with new bulbs Full 3M burnt orange metallic wrap Smoked corner and side marker lights Rebuilt shifter with all new boots Replaced valve cover gasket and CAS oring, and set timing to 14deg advanced for better low end torque IL motorsports pedal pads and dead pedal Front strut tower brace IL motorsports front big rotor kit with G60 rotors, Power Stop Z23 brake pads front and rear, stainless braided lines up front, bled brake system less than 1 year ago
Brand new Braille 17lb race battery Oct 2016 Trans & Diff fluid changed to full synthetic 75W-90 April 2017 Oil changed every 3k miles religiously usually synthetic blend
Lifter tick only briefly when cold, or needing an oil change Have a full engine gasket set, exhintake cam and ~90% of the parts for a turbo build available for additional $$$, otherwise those will be sold separately. I have cared for this car and maximized its grippy nature without compromising its fuel economy and fun factor. I don"t want to sell it, but I am going to need 4 seats and a bigger trunk soon. Let me know what questions you have.
