Re: CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE, IM NEW TO THIS MX3 STUFF

now now, Ryan, that is not entirely true. there is a thread called "big brake kit on the cheap" or something like that. the underpinnings of most FWD mazda cars are the same, so we get the joy of upgrading the spindles, and you will be able to bolt up the new brakes. you will need the roto...

Re: Miata internals/ MX-3 internals

but don't quote me on this. if you go and buy one and your engine blows up, it's on you! lol.
i am going to use this on my car as soon as my miata head comes back from porting and getting the water hole in the front covered.
there's a lack of capris around here for some reason! lol

Re: intake

I've heard civic, crx, and integra... I found one for an 88-91 CRX Si for $34 shipped, it didn't look like the rest of the intakes for the CRX, it had the extra nipple where the larger hose from the IAC (possibly) goes into the intake. Hopefully, it is the same product as the photo or ima gonna be ...

Re: Miata internals/ MX-3 internals

well, tell you what... go to autozone, ask for a head gasket for a '91 miata (which i have one) and a '93 capri (same as an mx-3) and ask them to give you the part numbers. they'll be the same. when i asked for a '94 mx-3, they said they had no listing, "has to be a dealer part", so i then...

Re: Seafoam on engine valves

the problem with that is the fact that the inside of our intake manis have a special coating and leaving something too strong could mess it up and cause bigger problems later. i've used this for the last 9 yrs and have had the same results. i'm sure something else might work, but for now, i'm sticki...

camber settings

ok, i went to get an alignment done, and when we looked at the settings, the guy tells me the camber cannot be adjusted and i need to get camber bolts. is this correct? i tried searching and found nothing about the camber in here. the toe and caster are set as close to stock as possible, but i'm rid...

Re: Rear disc conversion for an RS

Alright, I'm new to this. Anyone know where to get the parts I need for a rear disc conversion, and if anyone else has done it? I've got a '94 RS. And, a good engine to swap in? you need the rear sub-frame. unbolt the brake lines, they are hard metal, not rubber, so this needs to be done first. unb...
