Ken Lyons
All these years of pestering people about the Miata virtues, pointing out
$3,000 examples in the Sunday paper, letting them drive mine while hoping to
drum up some company in Miata-hood among my friends it has finally happened.

Headrest speaker questions by

My wonderful wife gave me a gift certificate to GoMiata.com. I'm

It has an Alpine stereo with Boston Acoustics door speakers in it now
and I'm pretty happy with the sound, but I'm always looking for ways
to improve. A few...

Roll Bar/brace & Shock tower brace installed by
Larry Hill
Hello,
Put the roll bar /brace in yesterday. Took 3 hours and some cussing and
drilling. Not real difficult.It has a rattle inside the bars when I hit a bump.
I did tighten the 2 bolts that came with it. Ya think someone that built this
fake rollbar put something inside as a joke? Maybe that is why...

Variable Valve Timing by
Brian Turner
I have a 1999 Miata. How do I tell if it has variable valve timing?
I think this option started in 2001 but not sure. Is this different
than the Boost Control?
Also, can I usea 90-97 manual to repair a 99? There does not seem to
be an aftermarket manual for anything newer that 97.
Brian.....

Hi,
The window cable(s) in my MX5 have broken/snapped and I'm about to replace
them. I've got the replacement parts (two cables & plastic drum) but can't
find any instructions - I've checked on miata.net but haven't found
anything. Does anyone know of any instructions anywhere?
Thanks

The car that I am looking to buy has a Hard Dog Hard Core rollbar that
does not allow a hardtop. My wrecked car has a Hard Dog Sport rollbar

fit or if I...

Unsolicited unpaid testimonial by
JEN LURA
I am not disagreeing, but why do corvettes and vipers run such large tires?
I would suspect they were designed to use them from the start.

Paint Paste by
Gary
Has anyone had luck mixing Miata touchup paint with something else, like car
wax, and putting that over spots that need tweeking. Why? Puttting the
touchup direct usually looks worse.

Deer Whistlers - Any Good? by

WD40 on electric windows? by
Eric Baber
Hi all,
My electric windows are slowing down so I think I'll grease the runners. Is
it ok to use WD40? I think the main consideration is whether it's likely to
