As a Californian trepidatiously headed into the teeth of snowy winters in
the Pacific Northwest with our '91 Miata, I was pleased to learn from
northern list members that a Miata can tame snow -- if not too much snow for
the little fella. Like more than five inches or so. The ...

I pushed my lil 1.6L pretty hard a month ago when at the Miatas at the Gap
event. It's wonderfull driving fun! Lots of high rpm 2nd gear stuff. I
didn't bump the rev limiter but certain times I probably hung around that
6000 to 6500 range for awhile. My car has 135k and has been ...

I have a 2004 Miata and keep a set of golf clubs in the trunk.  I need to
have more stroage space for shopping, etc...  Is there a storage box that
fits on the trunck lid that is completely enclosed and still allows full
access to the trunk?

A friend of mine has some 1993 Mazda OEM alloy wheels in near-perfect
condition that have had a very nicely done chrome finish put on them.
They look great except that the center pieces that cover the lugnuts are
still the grey/silver plastic.

hey, i'm from the UK and currently drive a nice standard MR2 turbo jap

I have the basic Greddy turbo package on my '91, and it's developed
the well-known crack just in front of the turbo flange.  At first, I
patched it (then it was quite small) with JB weld and all went well
for a good 30K miles.  Now, however, the crack has reappeared and

Would someone please explain the following statement in Rod Grainger's

 We're moving from sunny California to snowy Spokane. Are Miatas any good
in snow and slush?  TIA. Art, '91

It's been a while, I'm sure some of you recognize my name. But it's
been too long with everything I've been up to, so most of you may not.
I've been working on my 90 Miata when I have time, usually, it's
because something has broken and can no longer wait to be fixed, like a

AC just started not working all the time.  When have it on sometimes
it has a long delay between kicking on and seems to be totally off.
Any ideas on what might be??
If it is low on freon what connector do you use to put more in?

I'm new here and only recently purchased my Miata. Do most people
change their own oil, take it to a corner shop or take it to a Mazda
dealer?

The rule: put best tires on front.
Does this also apply to RWD?
