Interesting car build you may like

I figure some of you guys are "car guys" as much as "Porsche guys" and might find these two builds interesting.

This is a fairly detail oriented journal of a +350hp, V-8 Miata build (using Chevy LSX motor, T-56 trans and CTS diff).

1999 Miata - street and track car
V8Roadsters.com • View topic - 99 Miata LS1 Build "Twice as Nice"

1999 Miata - track car (this one uses a T5 trans, only has 320hp, and weighs <2300#)
V8R Spec.com • View topic - My SpecV8r Build

Same guy, someone bought the first car, so he built a second.

They look and sound like top notch builds. The guy reminds me of some of the guys that we have around here that are detail oriented and do it right.
