Gearhead Garage 'short' endlinks for NA/NB miatas.

Jackelope August-3rd-2007 05:43 PM

Were they $69?

aMaff August-3rd-2007 05:51 PM

nope, but they are sexy enough that they should be...

KrayzieFox August-3rd-2007 07:43 PM

They look just like my AWR endlinks .. they're great cuz of the ease of removal, but kinda noisy.

aMaff August-3rd-2007 09:59 PM

yeah...take a close look at the AWRs. There's a reason they're noisy. This one will sit flush against the bar and the control arm (no, not the strut. The control arm, where it SHOULD be lol) because of those 'protrusions' so it shouldn't bind / bang around.

KrayzieFox August-3rd-2007 10:44 PM

I'd definitely like to hear some feedback once you get them installed. The AWR as I said are phenomenal compared to stock, but I could use a noise reduction.

aMaff August-3rd-2007 10:51 PM

These are for the miata...not the protege. I'm not sure they'd even work with the protege actually, the layout and geometry is completely different

Well .. there's only way to find out :)

I mean it's not like you have both a Protege AND a Miata right?? :bigthumb:

aMaff August-4th-2007 07:30 AM

hmm, you make good point....

aMaff August-8th-2007 11:45 PM

well, here's the verdict: No chance in hell that these will work on the protege. The long version MAY work, but I can neither confirm nor deny. This picture is VERY close to actual size (just a little small). These are seriously short. And seriously sexy ;)

Hopefully I can get them on the car this weekend. My old links are making more and more noise. I'd like to get these in before something breaks...

Just fyi, I traded my FC for a built FB race car. I now have a fully dedicated SCCA tracker with full RB suspension!

It looks like shit on the outside but it runs like new and has a ton of upgrades to get me started. I'm going to start stripping it down here shortly. I'll post pics next weekend (when it's being delivered).

^ nice.. i bet it runs ;)

aMaff August-9th-2007 07:10 AM

actually looks pretty good for a race car ;). I thought you were looking for a *nice* car lol.

@ Least you know where to get a good cage built...

Roddimus Prime August-9th-2007 08:32 AM

Yeah it runs. The drivers side is a little banged up around the door skin but it'll track straight.

I was looking for a nicer car but I now have 5 vehicles and all of my needs covered.

(2) daily drivers
(1) pick up truck
(1) track car
(1) high powered scooter

and I still get visitation with my MS6 if I need it!
