    Removing stock E-brake handle?..

    The button unscrews, and the handle itself is bonded to the metal IIRC.

    What kind of sway bar?

    Yeah, the bushings were throwing me off too since whiteline uses yellow.

    Slotted rotors

    Wilwood proves you wrong ;)

    Help with shocks, tires and a trunk problem

    For shocks, the only ones that work with TEMS are Tokico Illuminas. For the tires, you could run them, but they're going to be quite tall, and your speedo will be off. Good tool here: http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

    Automatic transmission problems...

    Antilock light means an issue with the sensors, not with the brake fluid...

    Automatic transmission problems...

    Antilock light means something else is messed up. Does your speedo work? Jack it up and look around, a tranny flush isn't going to do anything if it's electical (which it's acting like it is).

    Would these rims be race or rice?

    Sorry, I remove my own wheels when I have my tires changed. I've had huge issues with discount tire (stripping locking lug nuts, broken studs, warped rotors from morons with rattleguns). Yes, I mean the proper bolt on spacers as well. They're just fine (seen them used on race cars...

    Would these rims be race or rice?

    Also, you're wrong. Spacers are just fine.

    Would these rims be race or rice?

    They almost looks like Feathers with red lines on them. Konig Feathers are pretty damn light as well (they're well liked in the miata world for it)

    Thoughts on 4jz?

    engine boggs down when revved

    For once I agree with Nick M :D "fuel cut" is done though the injectors and has nothing at all to do with the fuel pump (and the 12v mod doesn't do what you think it does)

    Best brake option for with stock 16" rims?

    Yeah, they are a weak spot, but most people don't have the cash to upgrade them. Main issue in my opinion is not enough mass to take care of the heat, so the brake fluid boils easier. It's critical to have good fluid in the system (brake fluid absorbs water, making it easier to boil), and...

    Is this worth investing in? Opinions please!

    Airbag going off usually means serious damage... If it's as bad as I'd think it is, it's worth maybe $500 lol

    Radiator blew the top open

    Typical failure of the plastic endtanks to be honest. Seen it on many different cars over the years.

    Stock internals? How much power have you gotten out of them?

    It's usually not bending the rod, but pulling the big end apart... I'll mirror everyone here though and say it's almost ALWAYS the tune. I'm of the opinion the only difference between MKIV and MKIII guys is that they go standalone first...

    What kind of sway bar?

    I have the adjustable whitelines though. Hmm...

    Ebay ct-26 Turbo

    Depends where it is, as cracks are normal in the exhaust housing from the heat. You can't rebuild your own turbo (well, unless you want it to very quickly die...)

    Another low miler for sale

    It's a K&N, not really "rice." Still kinda dumb though. Clean pre-89 is more rare (hell, it still has it's factory lip). Well, a perfect condition burgandy interior looks pretty good. Most aren't even close to perfect though...
