1997 automatic Miata went up today in my area for 3500 bucks...its automatic and has a hard top. I figure I'll go look at it because at least I could sell the hard top on Craigslist and then resell the car. I've never driven an auto and want to see if they are really shit.

It was at a shitty little dealer in a bad part of town. Had dents all over it. The hardtop was actually some sort of fiberglass bondo shit sprayed over a softtop with a glass cracked rear window and then SCREWED into the back of the car. Engine bay was super clean but it's not like the guy couldn't pressure wash it easy.

Put my hand on the underside of the oil pan and my entire hand was covered in wet oil. Knew I didn't want it but took it out anyway. Sitting at a stop, the whole front end shook. There was carpet over the dashboard and Elks Lodge stickers all over the windshield. Brakes were garbage. Was probably as gutless as a Geo Metro. Had winter tires on the back and summers on the front. The casette player had the little door ripped off and the power windows made a terrible sound. The whole car lurched going from second to third gear.

Flipup headlights worked great though.

Told the guy I didn't want it.

"WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET YOU TO BUY THIS CAR? THE NADA VALUE ON THIS IS 6 GRAND I KNOW WHAT I GOT IF I FIX ANYTHING THE PRICE IS ONLY GOING TO GO UP"

The oil is leaking.

IT MIGHT NOT BE THE OIL FOR ALL YOU KNOW THAT COULD BE THE TRANSMISSION LEAKING ONTO THE OILPAN

"How about you put 3 grand worth of work into this thing and then sell it to me for 1 grand"

HOW ABOUT YOU GET OUT OF MY SHOP

Are the 1997 automatics really all that bad or was that just a piece of shit?

You can get kits and lips and whatever. But if you're hung up on arguably the best model in the series (blah blah NA best MIATA in the series, NB best actual CAR in series) then it's not for you.

That's it. Nothing magical about it.

But you won't believe me, and you have no reason to. But I'm going to pass a judgement call anyway: don't get a miata. Not an NA, not an NB. Miata's are some of the easiest cars to research BUT you have to put some thought into it (as with anything) and if you're showing that you're not ready to put the bare bones 10% effort. Get a new civic instead.

I like hard dog, they're the cheapest, have a shit ton of options, and have been proven time and time again by thousands of miatas. They'll fit softtops, hardtops no problem.

Blackbird is the new hotness and while they are "the best" they are also the most expensive by far and to do it right you need to travel to his shop for the install.

If money and time is no issue, and you have to have a perfect fit with your head/helmet, blackbird it is.

Gonna be selling my red one soon, want to move up to a WRX or a Corvette C5 but the market sucks for both right now - If I was into C4s, I'd be having a much easier time with this.

I hate to leave the Miata game. Maybe I'll get an NC, but I've had it with the scene. It's been loads of fun, and I've taken it on 20k miles worth of road trips in the 1.5 years I've owned it. I just need something more substantial and useful.

It's complicated - I'm in Utah AND Texas equally often. I usually buy my cars in TX since no rust and better prices.

Depending on the C4, I might consider it, but I feel that they look too shitboxy. A C5 is timeless while a C4 is not.

The WRX scene isn't much better, as anything less than $10k is ragged out, salvage title, or worse.

I have actually, I've created a list of what things I want to do to my own car, and I'll probably create a build thread when I do.

I've only had it for a bit over two months now, so I'm mostly bringing it back up to spec, replacing all the worn or damaged bits before I start doing stuff to it, want to make sure it's working right first.

Then it's just a matter of getting the money together to do the things I want.

He doesn't realize. He's likely 17 and bitching about how there are no good miatas with less than 75k miles for less than $2,000. Too much weed and vaping at that age can ruin a mind, and such a mind will ruin a car. Miatas are not civic hatches or 180sxs that you can fuck up /o/. They're not supercars but they still need a bit of respect.

>>14646316
this guy here
i figured out what i like about this particular NB, its's the smoked headlights on a dark color, for some reason the stock NB headlights just contrast and clash with the front end too much, but darkening them on a darker color helps immensely, especially on BRG and the dark grey color and black

it seems like dark headlight housings help as well, as well as dark wheels and a black top
>>

nice. what kind of suspension?

Why would you do that if you can do something like pic related instead?

Honestly, all you need from the NB is the engine for that few more HP.
>>
>>14650783

I completely agree, but overwhelmingly owners of both would generally agree that NB's are "slightly" objectively better in pretty much every way, instead of objectively better in every way "by a decent margin" or instead of objectively better in every way "by a huge margin."

There are more retro na's but nb's can do it with the best of em too. Just need time, money, and elbowgrease, same as anything.

because that setup is far more expensive, a stripped nb interior i couldn't see costing more than $200 all told, and the swap is actually rather easy

I have such a fucking long list of shit to do this spring. 1996 NA with 89K miles.

-Get rusty rockers repaired
-Do timing belt
-Do sensors or whatever's causing my pinging on hot days
-Do plugs and wires
-Fix that one tire with a slow leak I can't find
-Find out why my transmission magically lost its synchros
-Compound and wax everything
-Sell it and buy a Corvette

your ignition timing might have been fiddled with (advanced too far)
try running higher octane and see if the pinging stops

>>
>>14652476
I know it has a timing advance, but I was OK running 89 until last summer. Now I'm running 93 and it's starting to ping again.

If I'm lucking maybe the timing's slipped and it's too far advanced now. It's on my checklist.

>>14652492
could be. the pinging could also be caused by carbon deposits in the cylinders. the carbon build up can get red hot and act as an ignition source. metal burrs can cause predetonation for the same reason.

>>14652505
>fix random squeaks

this... I think either my hood hinge or my wiper mechanism is squeaking. if I press on the corner of the hood where it squeaks it goes away. I swear there is a new squeak on this car every day lol.
>>
>>14652558

I mostly fixed my hood squeak by liberally dousing the hood latch with white lithium spray. The spring esp but I went overkill with every facet of each part. 85% gone. On huge bumps it'll make noise but regular driving it's mostly gone.

If you look it up on the forums it's a very common fix for it but as always with these miatas it could be something else. Still, a very cheap thing that may fix your issue.

As much as you people always talk about Miatas nobody here ever said anything about a Miata being in Initial D. Theres a red NA with a hardtop and a yellow NB.

I never realized that first and second gen Miatas are eurobeat anime meme cars. Too bad the NA got wrecked and was driven by a scrub with a scrub team with a super shitty logo that is too ugly to put on my car.

Now I know why you people hold Miatas to the same godliness as AE86

Honestly I think the Miata didn't show up in eeneesharr dee more is because it's too similar in driving characteristic/style to the AE86 in terms of being a lightweight underpowered shitbox.

>>14653114
Mazda published a technical service bulletin for this issue, Mazda's solution was to test for excessive axial runout of the wheel/tire assemblies and correct it by dismounting the tire and correcting the runout by rotating the tire on the wheel.

I've owned a '91 and currently drive a '99. My best friend owns a '94 and '02.

'02 is overall nicer, feels comparable to the '99 in overall speed, but the '99 is a little more 'light on its feet' and 'quicker'. Truly a toss up, get whichever you can afford.

The NAs are in a different, lower class. The 1.8 is quick, but blown out the water by the '99. The 1.6 is just plain slow, but it does feel a 'little' lighter than the others (especially the NB2).

They're all good folks, you can't go wrong.

The MX5 is way smaller, lighter and handles better, but the 330Ci is faster and is probably more practical.

Can't decide.

>>14654880

Miata engines are pretty robust, it all depends on if you can trust the service history and track owners. I'd take a one owner 130,000 km miata with service history over a 95,000 km one with 3 mystery owners and no service history. You don't need an ironclad encyclopedia but some receipts, notes, anything. Look up the VIN number, that should be step 1 and can tell you some things about the car.

Yo so I know there's kinda a community around the miata, and I'm aiming to get a 96 or 97 one as my first car. What should I know about the community? I don't want to be that shitty new guy.

Also, what I'm reading online seems conflicting about the existence of OBD in the 96 miatas. Is it there and what data does it give?

Also I really don't want to be THAT guy, but if I want an automatic (I go through a lot of stop and go traffic) what price range will I end up looking at?

>>
>>14664208

The first thing you have to know is that there is a ridiculous amount of information and support for the miata. Between the NA/NB/NC and now the ND, there are half a dozen huge forums dedicated to everything. So search, read, research, and pour over everything when you need help. When you do ask a questions, most everyone will be friendly and helpful. In fact the miata community is pretty nice compared to other car communities. The only exception is Miataturbo.net, which mainly deals with turbo and forced induction miatas, they can be douches but only if you haven't done your research, and you should do your research if you're thinking about turbo-ing your miata.

Good news:

-shit ton of resources
-they're friendly
-lots of reading and researching material to dive into

Cons
-if you're a dumb redneck, you have to read

The differences in performance is close, but what sold me was that the NB is better at being baby FD RX7. Cause same body designer.

I'd say it's more than "slightly" better but yes, you're not going have 5 second 0-60 time differences. The NB has a way better interior, handles better (replaced the wet noodle chassis, around the same weight for most years), looks better in my opinion, faster in a straight line and so on.

I'm not saying the NA is a bad car but the NB is an option then go with that, if not the NA is fine.

anybody here sat in both NB and NA stock seats? I'm considering upgrading to the NB ones. higher seat back and maybe more bolstering from what I'm seeing, but if anybody has some personal experience with both and how they compare that'd be cool.

Glad you bros like my ride. Ive got a few pics ITT. Its a 99 but damn near every part has been upgraded since i bought it in '09. It runs a 12.8 in the quarter mile and makes 300whp. Built engine and turbo. These little bastards become rediculously fast once you go FI as long as you know what you're doing.

only for it to snow this weekend...

Has anyone ever had clearcoat issues and had to take it off and put a new coat on? Mine is fading and oxidizing in areas and it's getting bad
>>
>>14650403
I've got one of each. They're different but I like them both equally. The na has more character, the nb is quieter and more comfy. That's about it.

the red ones are notorious for fading. not sure what the solution is, probably a respray

NA Miatas, at least the non-metallic ones, have single stage paint. No clear. The paint oxidizes and hazes over time, and the red is especially bad about it. You need a cut and polish job with a fairly rough cutting compound, or go to a detailer and ask for a 'paint correction'. What this does it takes off the very top layer of the paint, and leaves you with is what essentially brand new paint on the surface.

How difficult would it be to install a roll bar by yourself? Don't really have any friends, and the few "friends" that I do have like to flake. I've had this thing sitting around for at least 2 years, and I'm sick of looking at it. I just want it in my car.

I've seen videos and write ups of people doing it, but most of them have 2-3 people. Not sure if this is even a 1 man job. If not, I'll probably have to pay a shop to do it.
>>
>>14670846
Yeah the whole rear end of my na started fading and the front quarter panels had the clearcoat peeling. Time for a paint job.

I've also been eyeing these tuckin99 flares but they're pretty expensive. also I'm afraid to chop up my quarterpanels desu
>>
>>14673770
it seems like some kind of flares which chop the rusty bit of your quarter panels seems like a good two birds with one stone scenario
>>
>>14673777
I could see that. too bad I don't have any quarter panel rust haha. maybe I shouldn't chop up my car.

>>14673777
I have some crash damage on my rear quarter and was thinking of getting flares to cover it, but I can't justify running super wide wheels /tyres with stock power
