newbie by
Classicred03
Ok. I'm new to Miatas (well, got it in January)
I'm new to the group.
Question:
Does anyone else downshift in tunnels and drive in parking garages in first
gear near the redline every now and then just to hear the exhaust note? or
is it just me?
I always thought I was quite sensible until now.

Bridgestone RE-11 short review by
Lanny Chambers
I finally decided to replace the 5 year old T1Rs--only half worn at 12k
miles, but too hard to trust anymore. Considering the car only sees
~1200 miles/year now, I ordered a set of RE-11s from Tire Rack.
Very impressive. They are heavier than the T1R, but are quiet and ride
almost as well, at...

Can you id this part? by
pws
I am 99% certain that this came off of a miata, probably from under the
dash. Before I go digging for part numbers, does anyone recognize what
it is?

Remote start for standard transmission? by
Grant Edwards
Now that I'm heading into my first Minnesota winter in a long
time without heated parking, I've been getting a bit jealous of
people with remote starters. I know I should just tough it
out, but that aluminum shift knob gets pretty cold and I hate
wearing gloves while driving.
All of the remote...

completely OT! by

I know we have some serious computer nerds here, and I say that
affectionately, even jealously ;-)
Microsoft, in their own form of brilliance (stupidity really!), when XP
changed to Vista, Outlook Express was dropped in favor of 'Microsoft Mail'
which, is about the same but just enough...

Newbie by
TRCSr
Hello All,
I just purchased a 2009 Miata MX-5 with retractable hardtop. This is
the first roadster I have had since the 70's when I had an Austin
Healy 3000. I have been a member of the Chev Tracker group for many
years, but as soon as I sell that little gem I will be dropping out of
the group. I...

Hello I'm a newbie by
Kathie
Hi All,
I wanted to introduce myself to the group. I'm a new Miata owner. I
absolutly love this car. It's a 1990 MX5 white. Mechanically this
car is sound! She has some cosmetic flaws, but little by little I
want to get it looking new. The panel where the trunk lock is broken
so I'll need to...

Gotcha, you damn drunk driver by

I was being tailgated last night, nothing unusual, but I was able to
pull into the right lane to let them pass. The next thing I know, they
are almost past me, then the turn signal comes on and they immediately
pull right over into my lane. Only serious braking on my part and luck
prevented an...

Aftermarket intake questions by
Dana Rohleder
I am very happy with the performance of my Miata, but I am wondering if I
can improve my current performance AND fuel economy with an aftermarket
intake. Here is the rub - I currently get an AVERAGE of 30 MPG in daily
driving, which is, from what I understand, better than average economy for

Weird AC problem. by
XS11E[_1_]
Yesterday the 1992 Miata got a bath, charged up the battery (I
haven't driven it in awhile, it bothers my knee too much. Time to
sell?) and off I go, top up, AC on, AC seemed to cool for a few
blocks and then started blowing hot air. Got where I was going and
parked for a few hours, going home...

Basic Horsepower Upgrades by
ritchiekidd
I'm a rookie mazda owner.
I'd like to know if anyone has suggestions about how to increase the
horsepower via minor/inexpensive changes, such as exhaust or air
filters?
I'm not looking to make my car a racer, just a little bit more balls,
without sacrificing reliability.
Any specific part...

Synthetic vs. Regular Brake Fluid by
Wileyman
I am changing out the rubber brake lines with stainless steel on my '90
Miata and need to bleed the entire brake system. Trying to decide if I
should go with a synthetic brake fluid like Valvoline or a regular DOT
3/4 like Castrol GT/LMA. All input is appreciated.
