    Default ITA Miata project, August "Sports Car"

    Anybody else read the ITA Miata project article in the August Sports Car?

    Apparently its now OK to substitute parts from a '99 Miata on a '96 ITA Miata (they installed a '99 diff). Isn't the '99 Miata classed in ITS?

    Well, the R&P is free, and the diff is free. As long as they didn't replace or modify any other items to make it fit in there, it's legal...

    The reason that was used is that it is a very economical way to upgrade. The same housing is used between the years and if you find one with a 4.3 torsen it makes for a bolt-in swap.

    Yep, even a couple of knucklehead cone chasers can do this swap. :cool: Thanks to Flatout Motorsports.
