    Default Just got me a FM Butterfly Brace!

    Bought it off Miata.net classifieds and saved $100. The rails are new, the center section is used but looks new.

    Now I got to fix that front crank seal leak.
    ...and across the line.

    1996 Mazda Miata - R-Package (Eve-L)
     2012 Mazda CX-9 - Grand Touring (Dory)

    He sold his Miata before installing it. The center section came from a guy who converted to a V8.
