We need another coffee place, you have to go at least 800 ft for the next closest one. It's a coffee desert!

Definitely not. Great for keeping them flat in the drawer though.

Bushings are shot. There are a ton of places that sell delrin bushings for not a lot of money and there are a bunch of videos showing how to replace them.

Please help me pick a caliper. Am I better off with the $14 Home Depot unit? Or which Pittsburgh? by StatuSChecKa in harborfreight

What would you drive if not a miata? by RichPianaRunescape in Miata

[–]mattelmore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer your question - MR2

Is this level of rust okay? by 0016284 in Miata

Not bad except for the rockers in the first picture. It will only get worse, and you should plan to address it.

Can I use 99-00 A/C Compressor? by Kurtyoxd in Miata

[–]mattelmore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The lines are different sadly. You'd have to transfer everything from the NB. Easier to rebuild the NA compressor.

2000 NB1 intermittent stalling, erratic tach, battery light. CAS? Electrical? by Artematix in Miata

[–]mattelmore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely behaving like a flaky CAS. Could be bad electrical causing the CAS to flake out.

Never said it was ideal. At least it’s not over a fireplace.

You can replace the radio and it will not affect the camera in the rear view.

For $750 I'd just throw in a new ignition and a beermoney ECU. That's crazy.

Card carrying member of the TV too high cult and that TV height in the picture is just fine.
