The 09 Miata's have the same engine subframe as the RX-8.


Just some food for thought

I am trying the Statesville auto glass shops recommended by Sam and where Andre got his vert done at. And Sam, Yeah the vert and coupe have different shields. Safelite says they have verts all day long, but NO coupe shields available anywhere. I'll find one, just need to search for it.

We need to make you some custom Flinestone access panels under your feet for start-up when there is not a crowd of understanding rotorheads around... Or always park on a downhill. Hopefully they'll seat in quicker on this one. These seals are not cryo'd correct?

The car starts good cold but when hot you can cut off the fuel pump and it will start, then u have to plug it in fast so that it will stay running, or you can push it off. BUT IT WILL START ON ITS OWN with some help.

Man, that's just crazy about the windshield. Hopefully B&B can hook you up. I was shocked that they replaced the one in the BMW for only $200 when other places qouted me alot more.
Here's the pics from Sunday. Just click on the pic
