The maintenance continues with more fresh fluids and new brake components!
It was time for an oil change, so the run of the mill Rotella T5 and OEM Mazda filter got changed...

Now with the majority of the hiccups figured out, I am starting the process of changing out all the fluids in the car. There are no recent service records of the fluid changes...

New idle issue, surprise. The car has a high idle upon start around 1500rpm. Once the car is warm it seems to run rich and misfires really bad while driving and at idle. I...
Awesome job getting the car to the autox! It’s always good getting a feel for your car early on without too many mods. Looks fun top down. I may do the same for mine soon. I still need to invest in a...
+1 for @mrmdecals
I sent you a message!
if you still have these I would be interested in taking them off your hands. This is the one missing piece for my a-spec kit I am piecing together.
The terror on our faces and the silence in the air will never be forgotten when the check engine light started flashing :shock:

I was driving about 4 miles away from my house, just having fun boosting around and suddenly I got a FLASHING check engine light. Never seen or heard of such a thing. I turned...
At times while shifting gears my Nardi shift knob makes a terrible screeching noise. I found out after closer inspection that the outer wood layer of the knob was rotating on the stationary chrome...

So as I have been going through the car trying to sort all the miscellaneous issues, this has been my biggest concern for the past few months: One of the pulleys was missing on my...
Yeah, I noticed that a while back. It bugs me, but I plan on ordering a new set of 4 in the near future alongside some other OEM replacement parts.
Also something I had not thought of using. Great idea! I am sure this won't be the last gasket I make for this car so good to know.

Earlier this month I developed a check engine light on the car with the following codes:
P0172 (system too rich [bank 1])
P0300 (random misfire detected)
P0507 (idle air...

While I was checking for vacuum leaks previously I noticed that it looked like my cruise control line needed to be replaced, which made sense since on the long drive home I noticed...

Now that all the paperwork for the car has been sorted, I can work on the car and record all the progress that is made easily by adding to the timeline of service history with my...
The first thing I was most interested in with this car when I got it home was all the service history and records. Everything was piled into a single folder, so my first order of business was to 3...
As much as I love the aestetic of hardtops, I will always prefer a nice condition soft top. Nothing beats a nice drive with top down and some good music.
I am excited to see the hard top resto,...

The car was located 8 hours away from Orlando in Pensacola, Florida, so I started my morning bright and early with my friend Daniel, who was happy to help me go acquire my next...
I am going to start documenting the build for my newly acquired 2000 Mazda Miata Special Edition here that I got in April of 2020. I will be uploading a few posts to catch the thread up to the...
Great work Adam, truly stunning
