Ford 'badged' vehicle built on Miata frame? by
Karl North
Hi everyone,
I was driving "Maggie Mae" (My 'new' '01 Miata) this evening and my best
girl posed a very thought provoking question. She asked 'with all the
crossover (Rebranded / rebadged) cars that Ford & Mazda make
(Explorer-Navajo, MX6-Probe, 323-Laser, Escape-Tribute, etc etc) why...

Nice Tires? by
[email protected]
Hi,
I've just bought a 91 Miata NA, in Silverstone. She's a lovely car,
and her tires are certainly 'ok'; but, I'm thinking I'd like to
replace them for something a bit more performance oriented, and
hopefully also something a bit smoother. Does anyone have any good
suggestions?

FS: 1990 Miata in Austin - $2500.00 - 66,000 miles by
pws[_1_]
No affiliation, but I expected this to be sold the first day, especially
when he or she posted it on a perfect top-down weather day.
I wonder if there are major unmentioned problems, that is about 4,000
miles a year since 1990.
I would definitely be worried about some seals leaking, but I would...

The '96M is gone - sniff by
pws[_1_]
I just watched the shell of the best car that I have ever owned get
hauled off. Oh well, even the right quarter panel is going to be cut off
and used to fix a '97 STO.
We couldn't load it straight onto a trailer without tearing up the
section he needs to cut out, so we flipped, lifted and slid...

Ride height varies by
BAK
The ride height on my '95 varies slightly in the front left-right, in the
rear its 3/8" higher on the right. This is with new KYB AGX shocks, FM
springs, FM rear shock mounts, and all new bump stops. Is this acceptable?
Is there a way to adjust this?

eBay a few weeks ago. I am having a lot of fun with it as you might
imagine, but there is one issue - over rough pavement, the ride can

IAP Sensor by
[email protected]
Has anyone heard of any benefit from unplugging the IAP sensor and
putting a resistor across the two leads on the female side of the
plug? Someone on EBay is selling the resistors and offering
instructions on how to install it in the Mazda MX5.

rotary RX-7 by
hugoortiz05

times. also how do you modify a rotary engine to make more power. in a
piston engine you can do cams, bore, stroke, head work ect. but what can
you do to a rotary to make more power?
