1994 mazda miata mx-5 M "R" factory race version, 5 speed

this is some information about a mazda miata R

1994-1997 MX-5 “RLimited”

By 1994, he Miata’s engine had grown from 1.6 to 1.8 liters, nd Mazda was ready to really tinker with its roadster’swinning formula. The result was the “R Limited,” which was the first truly hot Miata, nd came from the factory ready to race. Offered as a $1,500 option for just fouryears, Limited cars were about50 pounds lighterthan the base model roadster, ad astiff racingsuspension and lightweight BBS wheels,all making thecar’s superlativehandling evenmore responsive. To show that it was serious, azda didn’t offer creature comforts like power steering, eather seats, ran automatic transmission on the R cars.

Our R Package car weighed only 37 pounds less than the M Edition, hich is a smaller difference than we expected.

The package has obvious benefits. Compared with the M Edition, he lighter R was quicker out of the gates, eaching 60 mph more than a half-second sooner. (Because the weight advantage was only minor, e think our R car must have had a somewhat stronger engine.) Handling is altered profoundly. Where the standard Miata tiptoes delicately through curves
