It's time to replace the Kumhos on my '90 Miata. My thinking is to go up one size (from 185/60R14 to 195/60R14), to compensate for the slightly too-slow speedometer, and buy a set of four Sumitomo HTR A/S P01. My questions: 1. Any wise comments on the increased size? 2. Any wise comments on...

1992- 626 No heat inside and winters coming...... When setting the dial all the way into the red (max heat) it's producing just enough heat that I can tell it's "trying" and not just pushing air from outside. Also the fan isn't working right. It works fine when set to 1 or 2, but if i set it to...

I'm having an automtoive crisis! After 14 years of blissful Miata ownership, I'm seriously considering going to the dark side of a Corvette. I really like the new C6 coupe but am seriously wondering if within days I'll be regretting a 50K purchase and wanting back my little car. Unfortunately,...

I know the timing belt is supposed to be replaced at 60k. My 2000 is at 75k but the belt is in good condition... no nicks etc. Money is tight at the moment... how much longer can I go before this has to be replaced... I know that I'll be stuck wherever I am but there is no damage that can occur...

Will appreciate estimate of approximate value of 2000 Miata, 1500 miles, always garaged. I don't know how to determine premium for ridiculously low mileage. Thanks. Don

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! And a happy 50th birthday to me. My family and friends are the best. I don't normally hint about what I'd like, but when it was communicated to me that they needed some direction, I thought long and hard about some nice thing for my Miata, but I...

While I personally find the practice abhorrent, I do wish you would go back to banging your teenage daughter. You appear to think that your posts mean something to us "robots".... Sadly mistaken. You are telling me not to buy Toyota.... Well... you've succeeded there.... in my 60 years, I have...

hi, can anyone compare/contrast ping and knock? also, does one get more ping if the timing is more advanced or more retarded? thanks, peter

Looking for trunk lock bezel. Camel door panels with map pockets. Power antena wire from radio to antena and a few other small things.

The radio on my Miata expired some time back and the previous owner agreed to get me a replacement. Who know one that will fit in the space provided? I'd like AM/FM/CD with presets and not real expensive, is there such a critter? I need make and model number please. Thanks!

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...

All, I have what I beleive is a good used power antenna motor from a 1996 miata. I bought a new mast for it, but I cannot get it to go up when the radio turns on. I don't have a wiring diagram so maybe someone can help me. I have a 4 wire plug on the motor itself, with the following wires,...

Went for a midwinter drive today in the old '98 NB 6spd. Hood down, one of those calm winter days where the sun shines, probably only 5-10 deg C. Beanie on, heater on, stereo on full. I must have been going a little bit too slow - my wife didn't complain once... About 350km round trip, through...
