Miata 1990-2005: Roll Bars


Miata owners call up regularly to say they want an SCCA approved Miata roll bar without knowing what that means. Unless you are actually racing your Miata in SOLO 1 (which is NOT autocross or track days), you do NOT need a SOLO 1 approved Miata roll bar, and you likely don't want a SOLO 1 Miata roll bar.

To understand why, start by standing next to your Miata and look at the curve of the Miata soft top when it is up. All Miata roll bar makers are stuck with that curve which means that the taller SOLO 1 approved Miata roll bars must be more forward in the Miata if they are going to clear the operation of the Miata soft top. More forward means closer to your HEAD which is okay if you have a helmet on and not so okay if you don't!

Therefore, in general, the street use Miata roll bars are lower and further back and the real SOLO 1 Miata roll bars are taller but further forward. Autopower offers both a street Miata roll bar that is relatively lower and further back and a race (SOLO 1) Miata roll bar which is very tall and forward in the Miata; Boss Frog will do either of their Miata roll bar designs in a reclined street user version (called "Maxx") or a regular SCCA approved version; and Harddog also has a full range of Miata roll bar choices as well.

Note that most of the Miata roll bar choices will NOT fit with a factory Miata hard top unless otherwise noted. If in doubt, please email or give us a call for help with your Miata roll bar selection.

Re: Carbon flywheel & clutch over Fidanza and ACT clutch

The 'feel' is very much like the stock clutch with a light flywheel. Thus, the attraction is the ability to hold the power without a heavy pedal. Pedal ...

Last week I spoke to Brian, I ordered a aluminum Koyo 37mm radiator for 97 Miata. Brian, you run a first class show! It arrived the next day. It is a fully polished work of art. The welding is perfect. The fit is perfect, old radiator slipped right out, new one slipped right in. Perfect. I am very pleased. Thank you.
