The Mazda MX5 is a wonderful little car, but what modifications can you make to personalise it? Well here's my top 10 Modifications for the Mazda MX5 NC (Miata).

If you have £5-7,000 and are looking for a car for summer, then there probably isn't a better car for summer.

The wheels are the one thing that everyone comments on when they see them, but the car has at least 9 more mods! You might like these and you might be wanting to mod your car too.

Great video! Great set of mods. I really like the wheels but think it needs to be abit lower but that comes with issues 😂

Great vid mate and hello from Brisbane. I bought my NC in 2019 and researched A Lot. Then did very little lol. Replacing the headers was a common theme but like you I didn't bother. Only recently did I properly understand how strangely pinched-in the OEM tubes are. Their replacement should have be much higher on my list !

Love the rims!

For speakers I mounted BLAM live L200P without the tweeters. The live LFR80 replaced the two upper door speakers. Very pleased with these. Sound deaded the doors while you're at it. Yes, the 2 Ohm L200P works with the Bose amp in the NC2

I have a 2010 NC with Bose and a pioneer head unit- the audio guy that installed the head unit told me i will be impressed with the sound and i certainly am- you need to get yours checked- my sound has amazing range and quality

Good video! I have a 2009 NC Sport 2.0l and have made several similar mods to you, but haven't spent on a garage doing the work. A few of my different mods: short throw gearlever with brass bushing (VERY DIRECT AND SURGICAL), LED blinker relay with 3-blink comfort indication, Pedalbox gas pedal re-mapper, GÄN Tuning performance dongle, shorty antenna, bonnet gas struts, combined LED daylight running and fog lights, lit gear knob. I had a lowered NA and would appreciate stiffer roll bars and wider (even 18 inch) wheels but dont want to modify the bodywork.
Mine only has about 50 000 miles. All the best, Rob in Switzerland

I do like the wheels a lot...I put 18" XXRs on mine and they look great as well

I love the wheels suits it

@roadsterdream 1 year ago

I belive a sportier coilover setup is a must have for spirited driving. And anti roll bars, as mentioned in the video. And of course a prooper suspension alignment.
All other mods are just ok to have, but really not necessary. This is my personal opinion. :)

I like the wheels, and with that colour. Polybushing though, for a def no, polybushed mine as I couldn't get oem rubber at the time. Horrendous! Such a harsh ride. I'm replacing back to all new oem arms with factory bushing, the ride was so much nicer as a daily.
