Well, the time has come and I am now teaching my daughter to drive my Miata. She quickly picked up the whole concept of a manual transmission and was out on the open roads after a short practice session in a parking lot. As with all new drivers to a manual transmission, the most challenging...

Have you seen the Dodge Demon? The two worst things about it: 1. It's not a Miata 2. It is a Dodge http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=15&article_id=4758

Just wondering about suitability... Anyone in a colder climate use yours as an only car? Weather protection and heater adequate? Any mechanical gotchas? Rust? Thanks. Don

Mazda is also celebrating the 25th anniversary of the MX-5 Miata with an array of 15 classic models. It's also showing off the chassis for the next MX-5, and unveiling a special 25th Anniversary Edition. From AB

No affiliation, but if it wasn't for the fact that this top is the wrong color for my car, the window won't fit with my rollbar, and the seller does not want to ship, I would snatch it up. The seller is in PA. $425.00 is a great price and this is one of the best modifications you can do to a...

All....I'm in a bit of a funk. I want to replace the rubber inlet pipe on the 04 MSM, and I see two variants available. One, by bell engineering, looks to be a direct fit if I only want to replace the intake elbow and nothing else. The other kit by FM comes with a new bypass valve, and costs more...

I remember a situation very similar to this in my Datsun 280Z. I was forced off the highway onto the median and came back onto the road at a bad angle, causing me to spin out once the tires hit pavement again. The difference is that my wheels stayed on the ground, the car didn't crash, and nobody...

1991 MX5 with short-nosed crankshaft, 90,000 miles so cambelt should really be changed. Have put off doing it so far, wary of tales of problems with the nut retaining the cambelt sprocket to the crankshaft. However, have read recently that it is possible to change the belt on these early models...

OK I've about had it!! I have a 2000 Miata and any time there is a hard rain overnight, I get in the car in the morning to find a gallon or more water standing in the driver's side footwell. Some have suggested cleaning the "drains" but I can't figure exactly what I'm supposed to be doing with...

I'm thinking about getting a hardtop for my '97 and I'm interested in hearing from those who have them. How's the interior noise at speed compared to with a softtop? How much hassle removing/replacing it? Are they fragile? Heavy? Any change in the car's handling due to aerodynamics, rigidity,...

I just had a brilliant idea (you won't argue with this one Pat)! Fit the same hot-rod engine from the Mazdaspeed 3 / 6 into the new NC! Why the heck not? The bar has been raised that high by none other than GM! Mazda must respond! The brilliant part is, the same old benefit of parts sharing....

I've got some nasty whiring sound that appears to be coming from the dash area. It comes and goes a bit but varies with speed not engine speed which leads me to believe it's the speedo. My question is, what's the chances of ridding myself of this menace? Does the cable disconnect at the back of...

I have a 97 1.8 standard mx5. Today was hot in the UK (probably about 85F). On a long motorway journey the temperature gauge was creeping up. This was at a steady 75-80mph. Slowing to 65mph lead to the temperature returning to normal. Coolant levels normal. What's the most likely cause of this? My...
