I've just gotten off the phone with Rod Bymaster of Mazda.  Here's the latest
on the '94 Miata.  Of course you know about the 1.8l engine.  The latest
figures (all approximate still) are +10 hp and +10 ft-lb torque.  Weight goes
up 50-75 lb.  Brakes are bigger all around and wheels go to 14x6".

There will be an "R1" model with aero thingies (for the SSC guys) and a
Torsen diff.

First delivery will be around early September and the first cars will be R1s.
