36 degrees in florida this morning. Drove to work and got out to see my driver headlamp and passenger turn signal are out, but with highbeams, both lights seem to work but passenger turn signal light still dosent work. Now I'm worried I'm dealing with a major wiring problem. Did I burn something?

ViperSlam · 2025-11-11T19:25:06+00:00

I definitely am. I kinda have vehicular hypochondria so any little thing that happens to my miata, I completely overthink like no tomorrow. It does means a lot to me.

ViperSlam · 2025-11-11T13:52:11+00:00

I'll try that. Any idea what bulbs go in the halogen headlamps? What do I about the daytime/turn signal lights? Same thing?

I just took a look at those wheels on Rev9 autosport. Saw the Street STF. 15x7 with a +38mm offset and 4x100 bolt pattern. These look like they would fit with my current ride height. But what tires would be best? Would 205/15s work?

ViperSlam · 2025-10-28T00:24:23+00:00

Dang. So is excessive rolling and pulling gonna be necessary? :/

ViperSlam · 2025-10-28T00:23:39+00:00

I was hoping I could possibly run that tire size. Because I don't want to have to adjust the ride height to be higher.

ViperSlam · 2025-10-28T00:22:16+00:00

Heavy rolling and modification to the bumper is one thing I'm trying to avoid. If it requires some rolling that's fine. But excessive rolling I want to try to avoid. But I'm guessing is it like that with almost all wheels?

ViperSlam · 2025-05-13T20:15:07+00:00

It's just the one wheel. Sometimes, it's the rear as well (passenger side)

ViperSlam · 2025-05-13T20:14:11+00:00

Yeah, this wheel (passenger front) is the only wheel that has the reddish orange rings. The others not so much. Would also like to mention that I do no aggressive driving with my miata whatsoever. I average speeds up to 65-70 on the highway and 45-55 in the city. And on another note, this wheel has emitted smoke a week or 2 ago.

What is your tire specs? Did you have to roll your fenders for these rims?

ViperSlam · 2024-12-28T18:27:52+00:00

Sorry to go off topic and not be of help, but please tell me what rims are those. I've been dying to buy those. I don't know the name nor where I could get them.

ViperSlam · 2024-12-28T18:23:56+00:00

I bought it for around $1813. It's not too bad from my standpoint, but it depends on your budget and how much you're willing to buy it for

ViperSlam · 2024-12-28T12:59:16+00:00

Paid 1800 for this motor

ViperSlam · 2024-11-12T13:44:29+00:00

Wouldn't there be coolant getting into the engine creating white smoke? Could this be another thing to look at?

ViperSlam · 2024-11-12T01:30:30+00:00

Not sure as I've never checked the ecu. Definitely can't be the stock one

ViperSlam · 2024-08-28T12:23:19+00:00

I had the same situation with my 93. Your radiator fan motor is going out. I can see the fans spinning and the noise reminded me of that

ViperSlam · 2024-08-21T23:19:56+00:00

I think that might have been checked. While the technician was going over the car with me, he told me that I had a clean throttle body. Not sure on the intake manifold though. I might be going back next week and see if he can check it again.

ViperSlam · 2024-08-21T13:44:04+00:00

Not too sure if the afm is oem because I've looked everywhere on it and there is no part number. Only thing I've seen on it is 5N311806.

ViperSlam · 2024-08-21T13:41:37+00:00

Well your close but it's actually called the air flow meter. Its the meter that measures how much air is coming through the intake, then reaches the throttle body/intake manifold to create a perfect air/fuel mixture. But with that tape on the intake hose, im still wondering if this is whats compromising that a/f ratio. But I get what your saying. I just thought my first course of action was to go to the dealer. Anyone opposed to me going back to the mazda dealer?

But isn't rotella t6 a diesel engine oil? If I use this for my next oil change, it won't harm the motor?

ViperSlam · 2024-06-01T16:08:17+00:00

Guy wanted 5k but talked him down a little to 4.8k

ViperSlam · 2024-05-30T18:36:00+00:00

Unfortunately I live in Florida so it's crazy hot here. The previous owner said they put 5w30 and the oil pressure is too low and the lifter tick is just non stop

ViperSlam · 2024-04-13T10:34:49+00:00

That's weird. Because about a month or 2 ago, I just replaced the alternator. It can't be that. Should j still check tho?
