I think I should provide more information about the car. This is not a "race car" in the literal sense of the word. It's a normal road car. I drove it to the event and back home afterwards. It's parked on a driveway waiting for the next adventure. No matter what it is: a road trip, a trackday, a gymkhana, drifting, nurburgring, you name it. It has no specific purpose, apart from providing a joy of driving. It wasn't optimised to be outright the fastest car out there, it was optimised to be a great fun whatever it does. And yes, I like the oversteer quite a bit :)

Now think about this a 6.0 Ls V8 buttttt cut in half so its only a 3.0L V4 ½LS & THEN sequentially turbo'd to say 600hp (easily achievable ) ppl Turbocharging a 4.8Ls can get 800 on a bone stock internals. An 1200hp on a 6.0L Ls , an Texas Speed engine builder's get 1500 -1700 outa a 7.0 . Back to the V4 IT would weigh at least 100lbs less an be way better for Mx5 50/50 weight.

​@@DaVe-iSnOtHoMe.MaN.LemmingsWeBSure a V4 can easily reach 600hp, but it would be far less reliable.

I love the idea of shoehorning an LS into an MX-5. That looks like a lot of fun to drive!

When a car guy builds a car exactly how they like it. Pure awesome on wheels.

Doesn't even look like a miata, that kit made it look so good.

ULTRA clean

I'm amazed how little it understeers... thats like the perfect setup if you get it right (which apparently they did) gorgeous engine bay too! Love it.

My man Mantas killing it. This guy singlehandly destroyed a drifting champion (Daigo Saito) and Ken Block (among others) in the same event.

Man he’s done an incredible job with that engine swap! So clean under the bonnet and I love the subtle bodywork changes 👌🏻🙂

What an absolute beast. Everything about that car is perfect, the look the sound the handling (yes even the oversteer) Awesome just awesome

Oh man I haven't seen Mantas' Miata in a while, he's got an LS now? And gotta give credit where it's due, that engine bay work is CLEAN. Love that guy

I remember that time he won a gymkhana in this thing, when it had 200hp in a supercharged 1.8l

Daaaaayummmm that's a clean build...at just over 2500lbs with 450HP you've effectively made a Japanese version of the TVR Griffith 500 equivalent. 🤜🏿🤛🏿💯🎯

That engine bay is perfect. Not expecting that clean and neat.

Dayum this is wild for sure !

So clean. Love watching it get loose in the corners

I’m building an LS swap miata. Been in the dumps about it lately. I needed this video.

One of the coolest cars ive seen, perfection 💪💪💪

Miata guy for life. This one has a particular style to it. depending on the angle I see hints of mini supra, I see hints of a flattened Porsche and of course as always rx-7 jr.

🔥❤🔥 Beautiful "little" red monster!!!!!😉👍👌 Thanks a lot!!! 🙏😌

Insane lap and wicked swap!

Very slick car .job well done and sound lovely 👍

really love the cinematic panning

Finally, a Mazda I would own (besides a 3rd Gen RX-7). Love the powerslides!!!

That body kit, and project is sick

Such a cool car. Looks amazing as well

love the stock dash so cool to see

WOW Badass Miata! This thing is a amazing looking monster! I think it's the first time when i see a Miata that actually looks hardcore. The little sweet thing hit the gym, HARD!

Now that was rad

Supra in the front viper from the rear and corvette on the middle. Whay a beautiful engine bay

Nice build man had a NA Miata you got the NB with the 1.8 l. I prefer jdm motors over muscle but I gotta say it's great man especially for what your using this thing for.

Damn, that thing looks like a lot of fun!!! 👍

One of the slickest miatas I've ever seen.

This looks like its really fun to drive

This car is an all rounder in the truest sense of the word

This build is AMAZING!!!

I hate LS swaps, but this is still one of the sickest Miatas I’ve ever seen! Definitely the best aero on a Miata for sure

That's how a car should be done. Clean and fast.

Sensational 🤠👌🏼

this guy knows how to build a car. this thing looks incredible.

That is a PERFECT example. Would love to have an hour behind the wheel!

That's a sweet machine 🔥🔥🔥

I’ve respected miatas for a long time, but I suddenly want one. Hot damn

So clean

Love the widened body!

Awesomeness

Any understeer is fixed by throttle, just perfect ❤

@mm6705

The car is not properly sorted, it shouldn't be understeering at all, it has some suspension issues for sure. Miatas that are set up right don't have mid corner antics like that.

I told you it would fit!

THIS is the only Miata I would ever like to own 😊

So good❤

Something like an AC Cobra 🎉

It’s a baby Viper! 🥹

Tyres fighting for their lives hahaha. Love it.

I love these LS swaps...the more the merrier - LS swap the world!!!!!!... 💪🏼

Well that thing looks rowdy!

one of the cleanest engine bays ive seen

Perfect car 😍

Looks extremely stable and well balanced considering how much weight is in the front.

That is a vicious build!

You sold me with the engine bay. Is that a commercially available body kit? Just superb

I enjoyed my conversion in the early 2003-2009 period. Ls6 383 448 whp/442rwtq 2400lbs

Minivettes are amazing

Nice job

Yay!! a car that doesn't sound like a blender

2535 lbs with 450 HP Thats 5.6 lbs per HP that is Insane
