From my old 2000 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33649&viewitem=&item=290223568949 --

Last Friday when I was going out for lunch my car started running VERY rough. Barely running. I had driven into work that morning and it was fine. Anyways it just turned out to be bad plug wires (since they were still the originals at 63,000). This all caues the engine check light to come on. I...

Not one for making Car A look like Car B but this is kinda cool. http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/07/17/turning-a-miata-into-an-aston-martin/#more-3397 -- Scott Streeter http://www.wpi.edu/~ss/

Just looking for an inexpensive set of pads for my 2000. Moss Motors has Standard replacement pads in Genuine Mazda Parts and "aftermarket". The aftermarket are significantly cheaper. Anyone try these? Also they have Mintex pads which are only slighty more. I was leaning toward them since I can...

I just have a couple of rust spots under the trunk lid next to the plate lights. I just want to grind it down and then spray paint the area. It's under the lid and won't show so it doesn't have to be perfect but I'd like the color to match as best as possible. Any inexpensive touch up paint in a...

I kinda like it. Wonder how much it weights... http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/04/18/rendering-mazda-mx-5-folding-hardtop/ -- Scott Streeter http://www.wpi.edu/~ss/

I'm sure this has been discussed but.... For fun I was playing on the Mazda site and started "building" a Miata. I don't need a lot of options. I figure a Club Spec with the suspension package will be enough for my driving fun. But look. I have to get at least the Sport model to be able to add the...

Ok... Dumb question. How do the headlight bulds come out on my 2000?? I tried turning them but they don't seem to want to go and I don't want to force it if I'm doing it wrong. Please respond before dark :) -- Scott Streeter http://www.wpi.edu/~ss/

Looks like the real deal. http://www.channel4.com/4car/gallery/spy-shots-2004/M/mazda-mx-5/mx-5-04-10.html -- Scott Streeter http://www.wpi.edu/~ss/

2000 with power windows. The driver's side suddenly won't go down. The passenger side works and there looks to be 1 fuse for both so my hopes of a simple fix got dashed to pieces. So do I start with the switch or rip the door apart first? Other things I can check? The switch doesn't feel broken and...

I have a 2000 with the original battery still (4 1/2 years). I drive my car all year long so it's not sitting at all. Just wondering if I should be pro-active and change it now so I can avoid getting stuck becaues this would be the time period it would go considering the age and heading into...

Someone had posted the answer to this but I lost it. My transmission will have a chirping noise when it's sitting in N and idling. If I push the clutch in (even just a tiny bit) the noise stops. I know I have to just grease something under the car but I can't remember what it was. Now that the...

Friend at work finally got his Lotus Elise. Man, this thing is sick in person. Very small. You gotta be pretty limber to get in and out of it too. Makes the Miata look like a practical car :) -- Scott Streeter http://www.wpi.edu/~ss/

Anyone know where I can buy a replacement. The little plastic clip on the side broke so now the light just hangs out by the wire (have it duct taped up now). Figured I'd ask here first since anything from the dealer will be outrageously over priced. Thanks. -- Scott...

Weird problem. Passenger side. On the top above each side window there's the rubber molding that the side window seals agains. That moulding is 2 halfs where the bend for the top is. The front 1/2 closest to the windshield got damaged and I replaced it with a new one I bought from the dealer. Well...

"Forget the Ibuki concept from Tokyo. The next Miata will carry most of its own current, svelte lines and some front-end hints from the RX-8. And it will have piston power, not rotary. It will ride on a redesign of the current platform too, not an RX-8". -- Scott...
