I just this moment got back from a long weekend road trip to Pullman, Washington, where in addition to meeting a bunch of friends for much golf, one friend in particular had agreed to act as my shipping destination for my new wheels and tires. Toyo T1R 195/50s mounted on 949Racing.com's 6ULs in...

Any recommendations for a wood steering wheel that has an airbag?

Inside my 1991 Miata, the water literally pours onto the rug on the passenger side when the A/C is on. I turn off the A/C and no water problem. Should I assume that the hose has become loose inside and to get it from the interior? Also, should I dismantle the glove compartment. I see two screws at...

I upgraded the factory sway bars on my 96 Miata with a pair of solid FM bars. Since then, I can hear a small clunk sound from my right rear whenever I pull up a driveway, even at 5mph. I've email FM support and basically they asked me to recheck the torque and do more investigation. I've check...

The passengers side latch on my 2000 doesn't lock into place anymore. I'd like to replace it but they seem to be expensive. Over $100 for a latch!! Ridiculous.... Anyone know of a cheap place to get these. I can't see paying more that $20 for one (or an I just crazy). --

When my Miata was vandalized and a few items stolen the @#&(*&^%s tried to pull off the tonneau cover by brute force cracking the dash on the passenger's side where the studs for the tonneau screw in and now they've become very loose so.... If I pull the glove box or center console/radio or ???...

http://phoenix.craigslist.org/pts/624817482.html Anyone recognize these wheels? They sure don't look like 1990 wheels. Any comments on them? Price? Size? Weight? Will they fit a 1992? Do I want them or do I want $250? --

Hello Everyone, I have always been a car nut, but circumstances have not always been favorable. I am now heading into what we might call an end of life crisis; getting ready to buy a nice car. My first inclination is the mx-5. And surely, in this forum of all places it is not difficult to find...

I had no idea that such a beast as this NC hardtop existed. http://tinyurl.com/25hr92a Pat

Is a roll bar really needed ? Which make is actually protective, and won't interfere with my 1996 soft top with glass window? Aren't most of the roll bars available just decorative & don't really protect the driver in the event of a roll over? Aren't roll overs extremely rare in such a low riding...

Hello All, I have a very unique opportunity presented to me. I can pick up a rear end totaled Honda S2000 and a 2002 Miata LS from a local insurance company for about 4,500.00 total (including shipping of the wrecks to my shoppe). The Honda is a 2003 with a 6 speed. It only had 3894 miles on...

Is there a way to cancel out the airbag light? I have a 1991 miata the car was previously in a frontend colision prior to my ownership. I am looking to restore the car to its glory. However the airbag light stays on due to an aftermarket momo steering wheel that was installed "junk". If...

Thanks you guys (Lanny, Leon in particular) for suggestions a couple of months ago about my irregular tire wear and alignment. Here's a follow-up. Last tires were Falken Ziex ZE512 185/60-14's and I had characterized these tires as "Godawful". Rear tires were worn evenly, but heavily (about...

OK I have about 3K miles on my T1-S now, 2000 M2, 195/55-14's. I posted the alignment numbers a few months ago. They were reasonably close to the recommended numbers but with max neg. camber on the front (one side worse than the other). @29psi the tires definitely can grip and I've adjusted to...

I was driving my 2001 MX-5 (26K, Red) around with my wife looking at the Fall colors. The car had been stuck in the garage for close to a month as I had a pallet of building supplies blocking it's egress. Anyhow, got it out an went for a nice drive. About 1/2 hour into our drive the car...

I have a '99 Miata with a CD player that stopped playing CD's I've burned. Just yesterday I burned a CD and it played in the morning- as expected. That Afternoon I loaded the CD again only to have the player reject it every time inserted. The CD plays great on my home CD players. Here are the...

I saw this starter button kit on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8064703890&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT I've read several write up on how to add such a button, but this solution seems really simple, if it indeed works and installs as they say. Has anyone...

Hi Miataphiles! The Sunday night before last I was taking a nice cruise to the grocery store with the top down, on a quiet two-lane road under canopies of oak trees, where the speed limit is 40 MPH. I had just come over a little hill, when suddenly I saw a flash of headlights in the...

I loved my Miata with grand abandon until a total freaking rat ******* idiot ran a red light and killed it two weeks ago. (Pics at www.aintchicken.com ) Luckily I lived. Now I'm looking for listings for 2003 Miata, dark green, manual, base plus convenience package, 5,900 miles, perfect condition...
