They tell me they gave me a new one. (Xmas '06) But I'd say I have fair reason to doubt that cause I had this problem once or twice before I got the "new" tranmission as well.

the location hasn't been chosen yet. the meet posted by trochoid magic is for his own meet, he's spreading the word about it, but it's not the LAX meet location.

i don't mean to confuse anyone. i'm setting up a "new" meet. this new meet is for the good turn-out of miata/rx8 that's been happening from those from the walnut meet going to the miata "kinod"meet. and i'm looking into a nicer location as sort of a reward for the way those with an 8 have been having in harmony with those from the roadster forums.
i sorta lead the rx8 walnut meetgoers to the miata meet location as their location hasn't been looking too well ( next to cop station, open to the elements"rain",etc).

i situated and planned this new location based on a couple of really good reason.
-close to good eats
-leveled parking structure (outta mother nature's elements way)
-low security harassment (nighttime)
-close to after meet activities (arcade, bar, pinkberry, etc.)
-and new people. both being mazda enthusiasts
and of course, the scheduling. which i'm trying to work around for those with busy life schedules.

just an option for those who may have free time and interested in a l.a. location.

get a few people and anyone is welcome. if YOU, or those you know which the above reasons suits you, place your vote over at the "lil tokyo mazda meet"

thanks.

dont know yet, the fronts have 25,000 miles and still going strong. never squeak, no brake dust.

ps. I should note that I had the green stuff pads on the rear and they made a lot of break dust so I switched back to the oem pads.

This is a open parking lot owned by the city. We should have no problems here.
