My Miata

[kcbhiw]

Only one pic for now, but this is my beater for all intensive purposes. Actually, for the past week or two, I've been driving it instead of the Protege (trying to save a few miles on the Pro). It's very nice to drop the top with the nice weather that we've been having recently. The Protege is feeling deprived, heh.

It's a '90, so it should be the 1.6l... '94 was the first year for the BP

Damn Bell South. I already pay a premium for their ISP. You'd think they'd give me a little more than 33MB a day on a website, especially since I'm not allowed to host my own server. Conspiracy I tell ya.

The pic should be working now.

...and yes, it is the 1.6 B6.

lol. I beleive so. However, I'm still finding pollen in places. There was so much pine pollen floating around that weekend. Yellow's the color of fast, right?

type R pollen


I haven't cleaned the interior since I've owned the car.... *shrug*

Very nice Miata. Nice to see that you use it for one of its intended purposes. My friend has a 95 Miata which is very nice. I'd like one a second car.

lol...it certainly didn't help me that weekend. I think I've vacuumed the inside of it a couple times just to get all of the rocks out that came in with the tires. I don't pay anywhere near as much attention to the Miata (unfortunately) as I do the Protege. I'll usually wash it before I race as well. I just see the imperfections as battle damage, heh. There's a silver dollar sized bit of paint that got knocked off on the lower front bumper from a cone. I guess it didn't stick to the primer.

Thanks! For a 14 year old car, it really doesn't show its age, well, from a distance anyway. It's been painted twice by Maaco (before I bought it) and there's a bit of overspray in places. But it's a damn fun car. I'll beat those pesky MR2s yet!


Now, if i can just get the timing right after yesterday's water pump replacement. Setting the timing without any help on a B series engine is a PITA!
