Nope, Not IT compliant. In IT the 1.6 car is stuck with its stock diff housing, in SM the 1.6 is allowed to upgrade to the 94-97 later 1.8 housing which uses first gen RX7 gears. The same gears are used in the RX8, the Honda S2000 and the Kia Sportage as well.
All posts are made by a fat old guy with a crappy old car that isnt supported by a factory anymore and therefore should not be taken seriously, EVER
We buy our tires at WalMart 205/50-15 NT-01 $148.00 last all season and go faster as they wear out........

There are (were) 4.8's available for the 1.6 rearend. When I ran my 1.6 in ITA, I had an Ekerich diff with them in it. I picked it up off Bowie, and I think it went with the car when I sold it.

I'd go with a 4.44 if Steve can customize something for you.
Somebody rub my bottle!! I will do a longer post later when I get back from CMP. Still have plenty of stuff for the 1.6 diff. 4.44 is perfect unless you want to twist it to Bowie levels. I still want to see someone fit a RX8 gear in any Miata. I need to do a cross reference spec sheet and post it.
