This a guy friend or girl friend? if guy friend..... who cares.......................... LoL..

j/k

Maybe the throw out bearing is bad? Linkage need to be adjusted? Air in clutch line and need to be bled? Tranny fluid leaking and could be low?

Its a girl and she is dating another one of my friends and she is a sweet heart and would give or do anything for anyone We were poised to install a cd player to replace her cassette player but when she got here, she told me about her issue. I guess I will have to install it next week and hopefully her miata is ok... Thanks mix!

hahaha. I'll split all donations with you!

I have a 94 N/A hard top and because of it's rarity, I'd like to keep it stock.

I wouldn't know where to begin to strip the rims. Wouldn't you need to sandblast it?

Just curious is your car N/A or Turbo?
