Water in Trunk by
Christopher Muto
We recently had some torrential rains after which I discovered that there
was some water in my trunk. The trunk seal looks pretty good so I don't
think that is the problem. Could it mean that I have a rain rail problem?
As always, any insight is much appreciated.

How to Eliminate Soft Brakes by
Christopher Muto
I have new rotors and pads on all four corners yet my brakes seem soft.
They certainly work, but they don't have the bite that brakes on a new car
have. What do I need to replace to get that authoritative bite that braking
on a new car has? Master cylinder, new hoses front and rear? ...

Rubbing from Instrument panel? by
Christopher Muto
Hi All,
I hear a rubbing that seems to be coming from the instrument panel. It
changes with the car speed, not the engine speed. My thought was that it
could be a speedometer cable gone bad but the speedometer registers smoothly
and I would think that if the cable was faulty then the...

Tribute Washer Jet/Nozzels on Miata by
Christopher Muto
My '95 had pathetic washer nozzles that shot a solid stream of wiper fluid
that meant having to waste a lot of fluid to get the windshield clean.
Finishlineperformance.com offers a washer jet from a Tribute as an
alternative that is a direct fit and is not only better, but also cheaper
than the...

Hawk HPS Pads by
Christopher Muto
I need new front brake pad/rotors soon, but the rear is ok.
Is it ok to put Hawk HPS pads on the front with OEM pads in the rear? Any

Many thanks.

Where's the rub? by
Christopher Muto
I have a brake related rubbing sound coming from my rear driver side wheel.
It changes with speed and can be suppressed by pulling on the emergency
brake so it is definitely is coming from the rear. I had thought I my two
year / 15k mile rotor might have become warped so I installed new rear...

Rust by
Christopher Muto
I have noticed a patch of rust forming on the lower panel just forward of
the rear wheel well. Any insight on how a big deal this is, if it is
indicative of a larger problem, and about how much it might cost to get
repaired would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Space Behind Temporary Tire in Trunk by
Christopher Muto
I removed my temporary spare from the trunk the other day and found a pretty
large void behind it. Can this space somehow be used to store the jack?
Are there other creative uses that people have come up with to take
advantage of that space?
Thanks.

Jack, Lug Wrench, Etc. by
Christopher Muto
I need a jack and lug wrench for my 95 tripple black. Does anyone happen to
know if other model Mazda's jacks will work? I don't see any Miata specific
stuff on ebay, but there is a 95 Millennia, and a 94 MX-3 jack that look
awfully similar. Thank you!

Wheel weight? by
Christopher Muto
I am looking for a new set of wheels and tires for my '95 and can't find any
OEM one locally for a reasonable price. I don't really care if they are 14"
or 15" and am planning on putting Falken Ziex's on them or perhaps
Bridgestone Traction TA's... Meaning that I am not looking to the ultimate

Leaking Valve Cover Gaskets by
Christopher Muto
In June 2006 I had the timing belt in my '95 replaced. I assume that
they replaced the valve cover gasket as a result. About a year later
the valve cove gasket started leaking from the rear; it was tightened
and that seem to be all that was needed. In May 2009 I had the valve
cover gasket...
