Hey Dino, thanks for the kind words and the incredible video :)

A couple of notes of additional gratitude to people who made this possible:

- BuiltbyJeff and his Ferrari powered Alfa Junior who laid the groundwork  
- 3D Scanning by Mr. P who “borrowed” an ARTEC scanner for a few hours
- The exhaust header was designed by a few different people and fabricated by Scarbo Performance
- The diff is an OS Giken LSD with uprated driveshaft shop axles
- Tires were purposely kept on the less grippy compound side to try and preserve the drivetrain
- The NA front end conversion was done by Toy Garage Pupa near Fukuoka
- The power steering pump is electro-hydraulic from the Toyota MR-S
- Both the oil tank and the P/S pump have hardlines to the front to keep pressure
- Brakes are the Supermiata Big Brake Kit, great feel, low weight
- Suspension is the Supermiata XIDA XL, optimized for more stroke
- The cam covers are from a Ferrari 355, both engines are five valve heads  
- The bonnet was chosen mainly to clear the intake stacks
- The exhaust is from a Ferrari F430, dented and small enough to fit
- The framerails and butterfly brace is from FlyinMiata
- Fender braces are from PACO Motorsport
- Rear Diff brace is from FlyinMiata
- Weight of the car is 1150kg

- Four years of countless more details... the reward were the friends made along the way.

Comparison (Dynapack Hub Measurements)
- Stock NB VVT 1.8 (BP-VE): 130.1 whp / 110.7 lb-ft
- Ferramiata (20 mm stacks): 338.5 whp / 232.4 lb-ft

Difference
- 🚀 2.6× more wheel horsepower
- 💪 2.1× more wheel torque

Powerband
- Peak torque moved from 5,453 rpm → 7,098 rpm (110.7 → 232.4 lb-ft)
- Peak power moved from 7,232 rpm → 8,347 rpm (130.1 → 338.5 whp)

Looking for sponsors to head to SEMA or Goodwood FOS, get your livery on this :) Hit me up on instagram @Ferramiata

Happy to answer any questions on the build.

The N/A front end conversion is awesome, great idea.

A lot cooler than all these LS swaps !

Okay, I thought my setup sounded good..... I cant unhear this now. WOW! Oto-san has created a masterpiece, such craftsmanship <3

Shout out to the owner, the definition of a true petrol head, what a dude. Thanks Dino!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

When you mentioned the weight difference and balance, it cleared up any doubts I had towards them swapping this engine,  and I thought, wow, what a weapon!! 😮

this is pure craftsmanship thanks for bringing this story to us. your japanese is also very smooth

Real life GT7 engine swapping garage 🔧

What a beautiful build! The attention to detail is exquisite, and with that NA face it just makes you smile.

After the Ferrari Dino now the Miata Dino.

Always a good day when Dino uploads 🎉

This, this is a well executed job. These guys are masters. The realisation of the perfect vision of tuning .

The car is just like Dino.

That thing is beautiful! What a superb build, he really nailed all the details!

I absolutely adore this build. It's bananas in the best possible way. JDM car culture remains undefeated ♥️🤘

Shocking how much sense this makes and how sensible it is set up and tuned . Aesthetics are impeccable by my standards including making the WRX scoop work while managing to keep the car incredibly tastesful while also making it look more serious . Cant find any flaws conceptually or executiion wise . The thought behind power delivery is absolutely brilliant making it a driveable car rather then a freak experience of excess and and excercise in managing traction as the key " fun" .

Considering EVERYTHING has been done and exceedingly difficult to do something original or unique by simply just being crazy and outrageous or OCD levels of fit finish on cars already high value collectible cars . Not to say the details and finish isnt here or that there is not capitol investment to hit this mark , but it is exceptionally cool and sublime mix of restraint , taste , outrageous and perhaps most importantly useability + what looks like an amazing experience to pilot .

Its a very SMART thing as far as this arena of custom car building .  10 out of 10 for conception and execution of said concept .

There's very few cars I've seen and wanted to drive more than this! An absolute masterpiece 👌

Japanese automotive craftsmanship at its best! Thanks Dino for sharing this amazing build - now you need a Ferrari swapped JDM car in your stable too ;)

What I love even more than you talking about cars, is when you talk with others about cars and interview them this was super fire!

This is one of the coolest swaps I have ever seen. The type of thing I used to dream about in class as a teenager and draw in my notebooks when I was supposed to be reading the textbook 🤣
