In this riveting showdown, The Fast Lane Car pits a roaring Miata against a formidable Mustang GT on the drag strip. The Miata, expertly crafted by the V8 Maestro Loris, boasts a 6.2 L GM LS3 crate engine, delivering a staggering 430+ horsepower to leave jaws dropped. With a T56 Magnum F transmission and a Camaro SS1LE rear differential, this Miata is a force to be reckoned with, combining power and precision in a lightweight package.
Loris' conversion magic doesn't stop there - the Miata retains modern luxuries like power brakes and AC, ensuring a comfortable yet adrenaline-pumping ride. The LS3 engine, complete with an ASA cam, adds a touch of retro muscle car sound to this modern-day beast, perfectly encapsulating the best of both worlds. Despite its modest weight of 2790 lbs, this Miata proves to be a true speed demon, outshining even the illustrious Porsche 911 4S in a head-to-head race.
The conversion process, involving a "magic box" to bridge Mazda and GM systems, comes at a price of $75,000, making this wild Miata a rare gem for enthusiasts seeking unparalleled performance. To embark on this thrilling journey, potential owners are advised to secure an ND1 Miata, preferably from the 2016-2018 range, due to transmission concerns in later models. With this V8-powered marvel turning heads and breaking records, the Miata stands as a testament to automotive ingenuity and sheer driving pleasure, redefining what it means to push the boundaries of speed and style on the open road.
