why does almost EVERY FUCKING REASONABLY PRICED MIATA HAVE ITS A/C REMOVED?
ITS NOT THAT HEAVY.
AND THEY MARKET THEM AS DAILYS
FUCK
THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT WEIGHT REDUCTION, AND ON TOP OF THAT I LIVE IN AN AREA THAT SEES THREE DIGIT WEATHER FOR AT LEAST THREE MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR
WHY DO THESE FUCKING RICERS THINK """""""""""""""""""""""""""WEIGHT REDUCTION""""""""""""""""""""""" MEANS STRIPPING BASIC COMFORT FEATURES FROM YOUR CAR BUT LEAVING IN SHIT LIKE THE RADIO
there are numerous other things that can be dropped from a car before the fucking AIR CONDITIONING IN A DESERT like interior paneling, power steering, carpeting, the radio but the thing is: YOU SHOULDNT BE TRYING TO DO RACEKAR-TIER WEIGHT REDUCTION ON A DAILY THATS JUST DUMB.
IF YOU WANNA DROP 20 POUNDS OFF YOUR CAR GO ON A FUCKING DIET.
stock miata doesn't make enough hp to turn the compressor
Daniel Hill
They're not that heavy but can draw significant power off the engine, when run, and still can drain power of it when not being run, also its just more shit that can break over time.
Besides its a fucking convertible, why the fuck do you need AC? Just drive fast enough.
Dominic Martinez
>sit in traffic in Texas heat with no AC >die
Parker Jones
this desu senpai
Michael Garcia
Miata is such a slow piece of shit it gets bogged down with an AC attached LMAO
Angel Sanders
A/C is a fucking requirement on any car I drive. I went without on my first car. Never again.
Miatas need it desperately because it gets hot as piss inside the car very fast without it. Then when you turn it off, you have to turn it right back on because all your cold air gets fucked in the ass the moment you stop running the A/C. Funny how people think the hardtop helps improve insulation/keep hot and cold in, because the Miata is so weak that adding the hardtop adds extra space for it to heat/cool and it can barely keep up.
I never ran with my hardtops even when I had them because of this shit. TXfag here btw.

>just drive fast enough
haha let me just keep accelerating through traffic at a stop light when it's raining cats and dogs haha
Jeremiah Hill
>living in texas
Liam Davis
Yeah come to SC and deal with 80% humidity at 90 degrees and then fucking complain bout your "Dry Heat"
Fucking Texas queers.
Owen Parker
Have you tried wearing a hat op
Adrian Price
>turn on air conditioner >car idles 800rpms higher
is it supposed to do that? It's actually kinda nice since it makes starting a lot easier
Joshua Lee
Maybe air conditioning messes up their hair?
Liam Gomez
m'fedora
Noah Carter
Are you fucking shitting me? Texas is humid as piss if you live out east.
Daniel Bailey
I'd wear a fucking Bedouin outfit if I had one. Aint you got moonshine to brew, Cleetus? Yeah the engine has to run a little for the A/C unit to blow cold air. If the miata is so underpowered that the trivial amount of power it uses is an issue, I don't want a miata.
Grayson Jackson
>mfw I daily a Miata in Louisiana with 95 degrees and 100% humidity surrounded by swamps no problem because I'm not a little bitch. Just wear a hat, some sunblock, drop the top, and drive.
Pic related helps too.
Ryan Phillips
>100% humidity
You do understand that it means its raining right?
Robert Clark
A miata has to literally be supercharge to not feel like a dog with the ac on.
Benjamin Kelly
bitch nigga i live in houston
80-100 percent humidity is a daily meme
Bentley Wright
You clearly have never been to Louisiana. There's heavy thunderstorms almost every day in the summer.
Camden Scott
if you want a car that doesnt feel dogged down with the ac on, then the miata isnt your kind of car. Plus miat are fucking foggy deathtraps with non functioning ac. Essentially what made me drop it eventually.
Nolan Reed
its funny had a thread similar to this one except he already had a Miata
Sebastian Russell
>100% humidity means it raining, so he drops his top puts on a hat and sunscreen, and it keeps out the rain.
You Louisiana tards are worse than the Texans on here.
Nathaniel Powell
>implying I'm not stoned as fuck off some weed I grew in the woods and some moonshine I made in my shed
You do realize that when it's not storming but still cloudy, the humidity still hangs in the air like a wet blanket (especially harsh in the "winter," sometimes gets to 45), and it's not uncommon for there to be alternating sunshine and storms within the hour.
Mason Wilson
What kind of hair salon is in a swamp?
Carter Adams
Your opinion of what 100% humidity means doesn't change the fact that meteorological reports state that 100% humidity = rain.
Quit making us other southerners look like retards.
Owen Long
Keep talking shit.
Meet me at I-10.
Carson Ward
Sure thing boss, but I never said I don't drive my Miata when it is is raining, don't need a top if you drive fast enough.
>le ebin gay maymay
Zachary Carter
for gay rednecks
Chase Ramirez
Some component of the A/C system probably failed. Usually anything A/C related costs more than the car is worth to fix on older cars. So they just remove the compressor.
>caring about AC Maybe you should just stop being a bitch. My first two cars didn't have AC and I live in Phoenix, now I have AC but I only use it when other people are in the car because they're bitches
Yeah I don't get it either. I drive an EG Civic and those are just as slow. The AC doesn't bog it down much at all. I just got it working recently in preparation for that Louisiana summer.
Levi Edwards
>sitting in traffic That's wht the shoulder is for.
Cooper Bell
I hear you can make them pretty fast with a few simple mods...
Anthony Parker
>Tfw it's a 94
Kek I might make it fast when my D16 dies. Right now it's set up for a balance of fun and MPG. I would love a B16A for dem revs.
>my car is so fucking terrible I have to go to extremes to not die.
Miatacucks will never stop defending their pieces of of shit.
Wyatt Reed

Would rather have Popeyes to be fair.

First result on google "does 100% humidity mean it is raining"
>A relative humidty measurement of 100% does not necessarily mean that rain is falling. It just means that the air is holding as much moisture as it can at a given temperature, in the form of water vapor, which is an invisible gas. ... Also, the relative humidity at the ground does not have to be 100% to get rainfall.
shut the fuck up you uneducated nigger
Justin Thompson
>just go faster Yes Faster Right through rush hour traffic and red lights. Anyone who says they don't need AC in the south is a posturing liar trying to sound tough, which Veeky Forums, as the biggest normalfag board out of every single one of them, has in hordes. If you deny this you are a tool. Coming home drenched in sweat is not acceptable unless you are literally trailer trash.
Haggle on it, OP. Try to wring them for ~75% the price of the components and build it out yourself, so you know it works.
Henry Carter
>no antilag
lame
Chase Fisher
>implying I don't also have a comfy sedan as a DD and don't just take the Miata out for fun drives or when I feel like driving to work in it
Owen Barnes
>Florida >mfw I talk to a guy who removed the AC from his daily for muh weight reduction >mfw it's always a beat up worn out car that is way slower than mine, which has AC
Aaron Edwards
>drag car >antilag nigger you best be joking
Jack Campbell
If I remember correctly a power steering delete also removes the a/c functionality in the NA. You have to buy some part that gets attached to the belts so that you get it to work, but it's really hard to find.
