Anyone live in Daytona Beach FL?
DBs seven replied to WestTexasS2K's topic in General Sevens Discussion
I know of a great race shop who are right next to Daytona. Give Stu Brumer at BSI Racing a call on 1 386 677 5778 , he may be willing to do it as they ship engines all the time. -
Don How about a Westfield Mazda Sport ? The Miata drivetrain is retained but you end up with a car that weighs about 1320 lbs (with some nice comfort options) I ran mine at VIR and it makes fools out of many more expensive cars. Let me know if you would like me to send you some information. Doug Beckett

Sorry for the late reply to this one. Wow, that clearance was asking for trouble. The oil pan is a low point on the car but I checked and we have at least 3 inches with driver in car. I have been over regular speed bumps without a problem. -
Somebody has got to snap this DEAL up !!!!! Some bicycles cost more than this !!

***Sold*** Westfield 2007 Mazda Sport $23,750.00

GUYS !!!! Thanks for all of the compliments. The exact weight of the car as shown, with screens fitted is 1341 lbs. Weight distribution is 49.5% to the rear with a perfect 50% cross with 220 lbs in drivers seat. I just set it up last week. The motor is a stock 1.6 running without a Catalyst and with a free flowing intake system. Stock hp is about 120 so I imagine about 125 but I have not had it on a rolling road.This motor is known for being a screamer though. The rear end is from a 92 and is not LSD. - Non torsen LSD's are not that reliable and also can create some "push". The torsens are very reliable but behave much like an open diff until things get really bad. I can tell you that the car will put 2 x black streaks down (tried on old tires) and seems to have no problem in keeping power to both wheels on the track, the light weight helps this. FYI - Lotus advise against fitting a LSD to the elise due to "push" problems. I have access to Mazdaspeed rebuilt diffs if any buyer wanted to upgrade, cost would be $980.00 and free installation. The parts cost of $980.00 is open to all members, not just the new owner of this car. I think the price is good too. The upgrades were not cheap due to the exchange rate and the fact that they are genuine Westfield parts. The whole car is now for sale at less than the parts only cost to build this car. -
Autopro have been busy doing some upgrades on the Westy. The upgrades are completed and the car is ready for a new owner. This is the second Mazda Sport to enter the USA and also the car that prompted Jonny Lieberman from www.Jalopnik.com to state that a Lotus Elise now feels like a "fat sloppy pig" and this very Westfield was "the car he would take home" . This very car was also the most popular "7" type car at the Carlisle show.This was also the Westfield USA display car. Upgrades include powder coated chassis and suspension, race seats on slide mounts, 5 point 3 inch harnesses, removable steering wheel, quick steering rack, nylon suspension bushings , heated windshield, long range fuel tank, Westfield shift knob, trunk tonneau cover and removable rear fenders , Just added - *** New Kosei 15" wheels and tires, side screens and Westfield RAC approved roll bar*** The following new parts fitted to the Miata donor components include - Slotted and cross drilled brake rotors, new brake pads, water pump, timing belt and tensioner, plug wires, spark plugs, front and rear crank seals, transmission input and output seals, clutch, clutch slave cylinder, shift lever seal, valve cover gasket, synthetic fluids, thermostat, oxygen sensor, exhaust header gaskets and all filters. All donor components were painted/reconditioned and look better than new. A North Carolina title will be supplied to the new owner of this fantastic car. Please read the articles in our news section to see what the press had to say about the car. You will find many pictures from the build on our website. The mileage is currently 1750 but this may alter slightly . $23,750.00 FAQ'S Q - Are stone guards available for the rear fenders ? A - Yes and are available from Westfield in either aluminum or Carbox effect. Front cycle wings are also available in the same finish. The car currently has "clear bra" protective material on all impact areas to avoid any chips. Q - where is the car made ? A - England of course and have been for 26 years.We also make warm beer and fish and chips !!!!!!

OK guys !! Upgrades are ordered. They include 15" Wheels and tires, side screens , RAC roll bar and more. I will post pics as they are fitted. We are also going to be moving into a 5000 sq ft workshop in North Raleigh and will be along side a very successful spec miata team so lots to see. This will be occuring within 2 weeks and anyone wishing to visit will be more than welcome. I will keep you all posted.

I do like those !! I am probably going to be restricted to somewhere like www.tirerack.com to keep the upgrade cost reasonable. I will search their site and see if something is close
