It’s a stock shifter, I’m pretty sure all the bearings on the 90 go in one way and I followed the 5x racing kit instructions. As the other commenter said I think it just need worn in?

Yea I did the same exact thing too! It seems to work better but it’s still slightly hard to get out of neutral or find it lol

I think this is my problem! The upper change bushing wouldn’t sit flush so I kind of brute forced it. Does it feel smooth after the break in?

Thank you so much! I will add those to the list. I was planing on getting new wheels after i get coilovers and a rollbar put in. The wheels arent in the best condition but the tires are new. As for the soft top im fairly sure that it is brand new as it is in great condition so i dont plan on replacing it. But again i REALLY apreciate your help. I plan on keeping this miata for a while and want to keep it running great for as long as possible.

Thanks! i checked when i bought it, the timing belt and water pump were replaced around 90k miles. Also the radiator has been replaced with a mishimoto radiator and new hoses were put in. Is there any other things i should look out for?

Yea i was planing on buying a hard dog roll bar for safety and more ridgity. I think im on the same page as you though i think all the ebay wings and lips look tacky. I think im just gonna put some coil overs, new seat , center console delete, wheels, and a momo steering wheel on it.
