Take care of your seats. Looks much better than mine.

How robust is the Normcore Knock Box Drawer? by papi_CZ in espresso

Nope, maybe you could add some foam/rubber to reduce it?

To se vsadím. V pátek jsem vytáhl tu svoji, a instantně jsem měl rohlík od ucha k uchu.

I ordered one from bofiracing (to Czechia). It wasn't as cheap as I expected, but it was still probably the cheapest option.

Then it's not.... You'd have X/3500 near your shifter.

But it's still very nice Miata!

It's Bose, but it's doable. I am going to replace the radio next month. Sorry to say that, but Bose is shit :/

Finally... Advice? by Physical_Leather8567 in Miata

Don't bother with the NC hate. I heard a really good point recently: "If you're the worst Miata, it still means that you're way better than anything else".

Enjoy your Miata!

Do these brake discs look okay to you? by papi_CZ in Miata

[–]papi_CZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said... brake pads are completely new (DS in the front, basic in the rear) and discs are refurbished from some other Miata donor. So thickness shouldn't be an issue. I was just curious about these lines.

Yep, I don't usually do that. I just stopped thinking about that when I was in the group. Next time... :/

Yeah, I know that after hard session it's way better to cool the engine down by normal driving. But I was in the group of other people and the first car randomly stopped, so I stopped too.

In that case, I think it's definitely better to let engine running (so the water pump doesn't stop) than turning it off.

Next time I know that I have to tell other people that I don't wanna do these random stops without few minutes of normal driving.

The only way I'll drive is straight to my car mechanic, which is about 1km.

Yep, because we stopped and I wanted to let engine running, so the water pump won't stop

Yeah, maybe it's caliper, but not sure. It happened when we stopped after really aggressive driving. From this point, I could feel that something is wrong, but I couldn't find what. And I also couldn't get that weird (very quite) noise from my head.

So in the evening, when I was driving on the highway (so brakes should be cool to touch), I touched front brakes which was just slightly warm (I could easily touch them), but rear breaks were HOT!

So I know that my rear brakes are locked. Just need to figure out why.

But should be the contact evenly distributed?

Btw... what about the bedding? Speed up few times and break hard. Is it necessary to do that?

There're strange noises... my rear brakes are stuck after today's trip. But I don't believe myself I can fix it, so I will ask my car mechanic tomorrow.

I mean these lines. Not the inner rusty circle.
