    Default wanna help with my 1st timing belt?

    so... i'm puttin' together the budget for a timming belt job(done the right way) and could use people with experience(or not, there's a pool here, do what you want).

    would there be any takers for a workin'/pool party?

    A pool party with a bunch of guys...not my idea of fun. I'd be down to help with the timing belt though. Never done one on a Miata but I need to do mine soon.

    so, i've got the money, gonna order the Rosenthal Mazda kit tomorrow(monday).

    I'm really lookin' for somebody that's done it before...

    p.s. the pool is really for the ladies(mine looks GREAT in a bikini...)

    i have the $160us manual so i should be alright on my own but help always helps(alow myself to introduce myself(name the movie))

    They seem to have the best deal on the timing belt kit, but it is listed as aftermarket.
    Linkie:

    I am sure there will be a few volunteers available if you set up a definite time.

    You might call and double check but it's probably the mazda "value" package. Supposedly these work great for stock applications.

    Or, watching the timing girls change a bikini belt.

    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.
