Hi I'm Derek. Recently moved to Marietta a few weeks ago as my wife took a job in Atlanta. Was worried I may have to trade in the MSM for something more "practical" (and automatic...) depending on my commute, but worked out a deal to work from home for the company I was working for in MA. :banana:

But I've got an '05 Ti Mazdaspeed Miata that I've been driving for the past 3 years now. So another MX-5 in the state!

I'll work on some pics, I actually don't have too many of them.
Almost everything went back to stock just before I moved, wasn't sure I was going to keep it. I still have all the parts, so they just may go back on.

FM Downpipe
Racing Beat Power Pulse Muffler
Greddy Profec Type-S
Forge Bypass Valve
AEM Intake
Thompson Oil Filter Relocation
FM O2 Signal Mod
Walbro 190
Larger eBay FMIC
215/40R17 g-Force T/A KDW

Really hoping someone comes out with a suitable plug and play computer that will let me pass OBD-II emissions.

Yep, a 91 Wrangler... Mostly in pieces and still up in MA. One of these days I'll get it going again.

Welcome! What part of MA are you from? I visit that area of the country very frequently and really enjoy it.

Framingham mostly, lived in Natick for a few years.

I enjoy shopping at Natick Collection. lol. Mmmmm crepe stand in the mall. Love it.

We have an office in Marlborough and used to have one in Waltham. I think the 'Boroughs can get a little boring though so I usually stay in Framingham or Natick so I can at least be near some restaurants. I know and enjoy the area very much.

Are there any car forums for New England that I should check out? I've looked around a little but with no luck.

Have fun with the heat down here. I tend to plan work trips for just about any reason to MA to escape it as often as possible.

Small world! I actually used to live on Speen St. for a couple years. Never got into the car scene, was always in the 4 wheeling crowd. But there's http://www.massmiata.net/ or http://www.nutmegmiatainc.org/ you may want to check out.
