Went to Mike's Place* this afternoon for an oil change, left $400
poorer!  I told 'em I had a stink when I stopped after driving a few
miles, it was a leaky "O" ring seal on the camshaft postion sensor.  I
also said I was driving to Californicate on Thursday so they checked it

Guys,
  Personal issues are basically forcing me to sell my '01 Miata LS ASAP.
Here are some links to pictures I took this afternoon of the car. Sorry I
didn't have time to wash it.

I traded in my old Miata for a new 2006 MX-5 last summer and picked up
the MP3 6 CD changer.  It works very well, but I cannot get any text
(i.e. song titles) to show up on the display for the CDs I create.
I purchased the sport package, so I have the "non-Bose" version of the

About 2 minutes long, original video and song.

Hey y'all, just got back from my first time really practicing.  A fun
hour over and over a woodsy loop, speed about 25-40, lots of 2-3 & 3-2
shifts.
2-3 is getting better all around - the feet are getting more automatic

Has anyone any info on the installation of the cobra alarm model 6402. My
MX5 has one fitted, but I would like to add a solenoid to the drivers door
lock and activate it from the alarm remote.

Well, I am teaching myself how to do a rev-matched downshift.  No heel-
and-toe or double-clutching for now, just your basic single-clutch
downshift.  So I thought I'd present how I'm going about this, and
invite people to chime in with improvements, or point out mistakes in

The title sums up my question, but here is the long version: Got a
2003 Miata Shinsen version a month ago, which came with Fuzion ZRi
summer tires on 205/45-16 wheels.  Right now the fronts are at about
2/32" so they should be replaced, but the rears still have 8/32" on

Clearing out the remnants of my 2000LS.  These parts removed at about 7K
miles (Mar. 2001) when supercharger & header were installed.  All parts are
FREE but you have to come git 'em.  I'm in Santa Monica, CA.  I ain't
packing/shipping nothin':

hi folks, my 1993 miata suddenly stopped starting ... the engine is
cranking but not starting . The mechanic says there is not enough
current coming to the coil pack. He says he need to change the cam
sensor. Any one has idea what could be the reason in a similar

Free to good Miata home:
Four American Racing 14" x 6" five-spoke mag wheels (decently light for
autocross, etc.) with Dunlop D40 185/55-14 tires, good tread left.

I just moved to MD from MI and am now required to install a front
license tag.  The Mazda dealer sold me a bracket (for way too much
money) that appears to require that I drill two holes in my front
bumper.  There has to be a better way.  Please advise.  Thanks.

Yes, I am new to standard trannies.  (I did live in San Francisco for
a year, but that is another story.)
Anyway, I am pretty good at getting the car moving now if I do say so
myself.  Typically what I do is to give it a little gas (something

I just changed all brake pads and had all rotors turned. Went for a test
drive and the left  front rotor is coloring (slight bluish tint) and showed
signs of rubbing, where as the other three show nothing. Is this something
to be concerned about, or should I let them wear in, ...

As I understand it,  the stock stereos on 1991 through 1993 miatas are
pretty much the same.
Has anyone with one of these years pulled out their stock stero and
noticed if there is an auxilary input jack in the back, where one
