I know that it's not the best angle, but I've seen them before here in Cali on the streets about 6 years ago now.
Luv2RedLine said:They were brainstorm but I don't think they make them anymore. There was another for about $500 at buthemotorsports? Check out this. Lights I've heard Les makes good quality products. The light production was bad but I think he's upgraded the lights in them and they now produce a sufficient amount of light.
APEXistud said:Thanks for the link guys & gals. But the headlamps in the link look a little different. The deal I was working on the 92 miata fell through, they were try to rip me off. $6900 for a 92 red miata w/hardtop, power everything, 65k miles. I'm still going to look into a miata, but for now I'll repair my pickup and sell it privately. I really wanted a white 95 Miata anyhow.

I have a '91 Miata (and an '03 Protege 5).
What is the "short nose crank" problem?
Thanks.

Have a look at http://www.miata.net/garage/crankshaft.html . Pretty good info there. My 90 #1 has 132k miles on it and no problems with the crank (just had it apart about 1000 miles ago). However my 90 #2 has only 114k miles on it now and I am now replacing the crankshaft. It all depends on the car and who worked on it in the past.
Luv2RedLine said:Ahhh...Kevin you beat me to it. You might be alright, just check the VIN. miata.net is definately the place to be. the 1991.5 and up are all ok. I guess mazda figured out their product wasn't up to par?
It's all a matter of your driving style and how the bolt holds up. You could be ok and you could find problems soon.
As far as the lights, the Hellas are said to put out a sufficient amount of light. When they first came out a couple years ago people bought them and then replaced them with different lights with more power.
Hows the miata coming? I see you changed your sig. to show your family's addition. Either PM me or post here. You got her running yet?
