Thanks guys I'll give it a try. Bruce Bing '03

This link was sent to me by a friend. I don't know if it has been posted here or not. It shows what a 1994 turbo miata with 140K miles in the hands of a great driver can do. The video really shows the advantages a 2000 pound car like the miata has over these relatively heavy GT cars when it come...

I had the check engine light on my 2000 Mata analyzed and the read-out was "excessive EGR flow" Can anyone tell me if this means something other than a bad EGR valve? I'm hoping for something simple since it appears that an EGR valve is about $300. Thanks for your help. Clark Smith

I want to remove the Nardi leather shift knob so I can remove the center section and repair a spring on the cup holder. It will rotate, but does not go any place. Is it a screw on, or a set screw ? Thanks, Bruce Bing '03 LE

I finally took my Konis off the '96M today. They are not as pretty as when I installed them a little less than 50,000 miles ago, but they were working great when the car went down. I am either going to re-use these on a project car or sell them. My question is, what kind of life can I reasonably...

My 2002 Miata LS Brookstone Turanza 205/45R16s are nearing time for replacement. I've searched for recommendations and reviewed the recent Car and Driver 11 tire comparison and also looked at some postings from this group. I like the tread wear rating of the Yokohama tires I saw listed but...

Just bought an 06 Miata and the dealer insisted that the etching is non-negotiable ... at a cost to me of $156! Lo and behold, when I took delivery there was NO etching on my car at all. Since all the paperwork was already done, the dealer tried to backpedal and give me 5 certificates for free oil...

Hello, everyone. When I was in college (i.e. little driving experience, young, clueless, single, no steady job, etc), the auto insurance was, well, quite expensive. But it got better every year, possibly because 1) I'm getting older, and 2) the car I was driving was also getting older. Now I'm...

I am doing the bigger brake swap from the '96 to the '91 that I drive now. There is a huge improvement after doing the fronts, but part of that is because the original 10 inch rotors were trashed and the system was due for a bleed. Does anyone know off-hand what the size difference is on the...

Can anyone tell me where to obtain a Miata air hose for a 1.6l engine? DonB

I finally processed the pictures I took at the Zoom Zoom Atlanta of the exposed 2006 frame and engine they had there. http://dommelen.net/miata/other/102305/index.htm As you see, they took great effort to increase stiffness, and the windshield and behind seat hoops are clearly intended to take an...

I know that trailer hitches have been sold for Miatas from the very beginning but have any of you had actual experience with towing with your Miata? I've just about ready to buy a 2006 (tomorrow in fact if everything goes well!) and I've been toying with the idea of putting on a hitch and buying a...

I just heard from the dealer who is delivering my 2006 Miata. They are withholding it because of an airbag problem...so they say. Has anyone else received a recall?

So anyway I'm putting my 90 Miata up for sale. 85k actual miles, just had a new clutch put in, had it painted 2 months ago...previous owner had really done a poor job so I had it redone in a copper metallic...nice color for...
