Hit up K power. I think they are working on a EPS system for the k swap nc kits.

Yup!👍🏻

No it does not. NC is a larger hub and a different bolt pattern at 5x144. NA and NB is 4x100

I reused the NC sensor

@@MitchelYardley ok thanks. I used rx8 sensor but i have no abs and tacho... I will put nc sensor

@gregorygrandjean8820 yeah you’ll need the NC sensor. Your ECU doesn’t have the parameters to use the rx8 sensor.

Still holding up good no complaints. If your NC is lowered drastically then I recommend!

100% night and day difference between my Feals and the Xidas. Having the suspension travel is so nice.

@@MitchelYardley Nice! From what I found, Feal seem to have similar performance to B14 (however they're adjustable, unlike B14). I'll be looking to buy a set of Xida once the budget is ready for it. Thanks!

How did the install go?

You’ll need to buy 2 of everything unless listed differently. Normally these parts are sold separately

First time it took me about 4 hours. I can do it now in about 2.

It’s a 4” lift

Hey there! I apologize but I’m not understanding your question

I have seen many NA and NBs when they delete the power steering pump they go and depower the steering rack, is it necessary to do the same for NC?

Oh I understand the question now. So I came from an NA Miata and hated the power steering and did the de powered rack. On my NC, what made me get rid of the power steering was the fact the pump was already failed and I didn’t even realize it. I drove a few friends NC with the same wheel and tire size and it felt much easier. So I decided since my PS isn’t working properly might as well just go to manual steering fully. I really enjoy the steering feel ONCE I added the roll center correction tie rods. It brought the steering back to almost neutral (where it felt when my PS was installed but not fully functioning). Sorry for the lengthy response!

Thank you for your time writing this response 🙏 Im following your build from Saudi Arabia and I am trying to make the same thing you do. My goal is to make my engine gain a little bit hp, clean engine bay, try everything else in modifying my NC and share knowledge with my friends (miata Saudi club)

Not one single issue with the plate I got in the kit. No issue with anything about this specific kit either. Just works.

never mind..I see it was at the reunion..not HOD. I was there that day..but not on track in my miata

Yeah that was group A for the reunion. There wasn’t a fastest group after that which sucks because I did pass quite a few cars without point bys (totally my fault)

Used 225/45/17 Yokohama A052

Thank you!

Yeah! I’m down to fill that out I think you follow me on Facebook and IG!

@@MitchelYardley Yep! Just sent you the link of FB messenger.

All NCs have 5 lugs. NDs is when they went back to 4 lug.

Yeah it's really annoying because you can't use the same wheels as other models. It's because the NC was heavier

It’s around 5 seconds

Center console needs to be removed and shifter does need to be removed, I guess unless the car was high enough up but it’s 3 10mm bolts to remove.

@@MitchelYardley cheers man

Wait no way really!?

@@MitchelYardley unfortunately yes, theres even play turning side to side now. Like if I hold the hub, I can move the whole quick release and see the visible play at the splines

@@MitchelYardleyand I’ve only removed and installed the steering wheel a hand ful of times. Quick release has only been on my car since Thursday of last week

Oh man that’s unfortunate to hear! You should contact them to see what they can do!

Yup. The Gibson dual sport exhaust does pass emissions

We ran out of time after the alignment. I will be back to do the corner balance fix. Once I fully situate the front end by fixing my splitter setup!

And yes I definitely can get it closer to 50/50!

Still loving the XIDAS, street compliance actually is still really good, given my setup on the car with the stiffer control arms and bushings. XIDAs just soak up bumps so damn well. For a street only car, the touring rates would be excellent. Could see myself even going on a long road trip with them and still being comfortable

Not clearancing on the inside tub needed but it did run slightly when I ran some wheels less than +38 offset. I think those wheels were around +45

Yes they did. Especially since I have no power steering. Coupled with my good shocks now, the car is definitely much improved on actual drivability, where I’m not fighting the wheel anymore. I can focus on driving line and throttle/ brake inputs. I did the larger amount at 15mm.

Did the opposite actually, caused more understeer. The front just had too much grip.

I definitely think so. A wing mounted to body panels will loose it’s effectiveness as that downforce has to travel through the airfoil, wing stands, trunk/body panel, suspension, then tires. Where as my setup is airfoil, stands, suspension, then tires.

If you're going to the effort would it not be better to mount to the uprights?

That’s gonna be your “outer tie rod” arm. Take a look at this diagram. www.realmazdaparts.com/v-2007-mazda-mx-5-miata--sv--2-0l-l4-gas/suspension--rear-suspension

Worksbell have always been higher end quick releases and hubs. They make great products. That was going to be my first go to but I saw this one released and figured I’d give it a shot for 2 main reasons. Price and the QR being splined rather than ball bearing (like the worksbell) but the worksbell one is I believe the highest quality ball bearing QR.

Looking back on the video, yes I definitely could have done a better check list style for the video! You should have good luck checking out Miata.net for a full in depth write on how to drop the engine for sure. I kinda winged it and just recorded it hence my video being kinda sporadic😂

Heard some bad knocking type sounded when revving the engine and just so happened to check this side first !

Mid pipe is the one included in the PPE full exhaust which technically is just a 2.5” pipe with a Magnaflow resonator towards the rear. That mid pipe does use a small cat though. Cut out I used was from Pertronix/Dougs headers!

@@MitchelYardley Do you have link to the PPE exhaust?

@Tony-ek5pf looks like they aren’t doing anything anymore for the Mazdas. From What it looks like on their website.

No cut on this exhaust setup

I actually don’t have brake ducts at the moment 🫣 I have the AWR fog light ducts installed as well as the duct’d brake baking plates but just no hoses
