This is for a 1993 Mazda Miata in great condition. I am only selling it because I am moving to the east coast.  The exterior is painted with K11 smoke grey paint with carbon fiber vinyl hood and trunk. The rims are 15" Trmotorsports with tires in like new condition. The suspension is lowered on Raceland coilovers and the engine is stock, except for a k&n intake filter with Jackson racing exhaust. The interior has custom leather seats with carbon fiber vinyl trims, along with a Nardi NB steering wheel and blutooth cd/usb player. The steering wheel itself still has airbags, but I never hooked up the wires to the existing module so the airbag light is on due to that reason. The gears shift very smoothly because I changed the transmission oil, turett oil, and both of the big and small rubber shift boots. The car has only been filled with 91 gas and mobile 1 full synthetic oil. Rack n pinion, spark plugs and wires, thermostat, waterpump, timing belt were all done at about 125k. The car right now reads 144,xxx and still drives great. I purchased the car 2 1/2 years ago and have put about 20k on the motor.  Some negative points about the car is some very small chips in the paint along some edges, but it is not peeling or anything major.  The driver's side window suddenly stopped rolling down.  I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I just haven't had the time to open up the door panel.  The car has a Clifford alarm system with a pop-up trunk as well.  The headlights are HID with a low profile motor.  The Audi LED strips are connected so that when you signal, each side will turn amber. I never raced or abused the car. I also changed the bulbs on the odometer from the ugly green to blue.  The top is brand new, and the tint is the expensive ceramic heat resistant tint.  I have paid very detailed attention and have babied this car since I got it.  If you are looking for more of a stock Miata with slight minor changes in performance and something that looks amazing and clean, this is the car for you! Feel free to ask any questions.

Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.

Mazda's next-gen SkyActiv engines will drop spark plugs in favor of high compression

Mon, Jan 16 2017

Homogeneous charge compression ignition, or HCCI, is the black art of internal combustion engines that aims to produce diesel-like fuel efficiency for the cost of gasoline. Although some of its competitors have developed and subsequently given up on the tech, Mazda confirmed that the next-generation of SkyActiv engines will employ HCCI technology, improving fuel economy by 30 percent and at the same time reducing exhaust emissions. According to Nikkei, a new SkyActiv family of engines is set to debut under the hood of the next-gen Mazda3 sometime in 2018 before making its way into other vehicles. In simple terms, an engine that uses HCCI burns the air/fuel mix using pressure instead of with spark plugs, just like a diesel. At 14:1, Mazda's gasoline engines already have some of the highest compression ratios out there, but a move to HCCI means cranking up the compression to 18:1. While the tech sounds relatively straightforward, using HCCI means dealing with a number of side issues. It's one of those "on paper" ideas that compounds problems when put into practice. Heat, revs, and fuel must all be carefully managed as gasoline doesn't burn the same way as diesel. Mazda is mum on details, but the automaker seems confident that the issues have been sorted. If the new engines do indeed make it to market with HCCI, Mazda will have out-engineered GM, Daimler, and Hyundai, all of which have tried and failed to develop HCCI engines in a cost-effective package. With the market moving towards electrification, it's interesting to see Mazda still focusing so heavily on traditional internal combustion gasoline engines. It's an indication of where they see the market heading for the next few years. Although the automaker has been hesitant to move forward with hybrid and electric powertrains, Nikkei also reports that Mazda will begin mass production of EVs in 2019. Related Video:

2014 Mazda3 breaks cover early, in Euro-spec at least

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

We're set to get a closer look at the US-spec 2014 Mazda3 later today, but AutoExpress has the first peek at the machine's European cousin (after initial leaks reportedly came from a Czech outlet). The photos show a compact that's taken plenty of design inspiration from its older sister, the Mazda6. That's excellent news, as the larger car's dynamic front fascia, accentuated fender arches and long nose translate well to the Mazda3. Inside, there are are new and improved material choices, and the longer wheelbase means occupants get to enjoy more room than before. There's also a larger trunk with 12.3 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
Buyers in the EU can get their hands on a 1.5-liter Skyactiv-G gasoline engine with 99 horsepower, though the old 2.0-liter four-cylinder will still be available in either 118 hp or 163 hp configuration. A 2.2-liter diesel tops out the engine choices.
The 2014 Mazda3 is lighter than its predecessor and boasts disk brakes and a multi-link rear suspension on every trim. That means this thing should be fun to shuffle around. Stay tuned for details on the US-spec variant later today, including a lot more images of the good-looking hatch.
