    Question 2017 What did you get for your NA Miata

    Hope you installed the door bushings one at a time and had the other door open, already. LOL

    PLaced a new radiator cap and top clamp on Noir and the coolant leak seems to be cured. So, despite her being neglected for a week, tomorrow might be a day of shunning the responsibilities of life and running the curvies! Only way I can think of to properly bring in the Miata calendar year of the Sharka!

    Peace fellow nutz!

    Edit: read your build thread post!

    I got an e-mail Friday with a tracking #. Depending on how far the snow has set back shipping should have some pics. later in the week.

    Side note: Coolant leak has moved. Hope it's not a head gasket. <fingers-crossed>

    Neither snow, nor more snow, nor "That's enough!" snow could stay the mighty FedEx ground from it's appointed duties.



    Thanks Shandelle! It looks to have arrived safe.

    Now I just need to have this snow gone so I can fix the coolant leak and install these puppies!

    Got to love hidden gems in a Miata!

    Girl, you are some kinda crazy.

    No install though, I enjoy my KG Works short shifter way too much. It was just a cheap and rare buy to me. Might go up for sale in the future. I will note that it's very light without the excess material of the stock shifter base in addition to being the only shifter I've seen with a derlin ball instead of being all metal. The portion below the ball does actually look longer than stock too, changing the shift fulcrum and making it a true short shifter. I was skeptical at first since these didn't include a spacer like miataroadster, Mazdaspeed or any common kit really. Looks like they lengthened it to what they thought they could get away with while using the stock components.
