I'm going to run mine until it breaks probably (since 'm holding out for a swap car),. but need to have one laying arround just in case.
FM wants way too much money.

There is a vendor on Ebay that sells the belt, the pulleys, and the pump for $99, and a few reports on Miata.net say he is actually selling new name brand parts.Quote:

Here is the thread on it.
Sweet! I figured you were just making all this up in a desperate attempt to impress us! ::Clown::Quote:

A little searching revealed that the seller has his own site where he lists the kits for $5 less than he does on EBay. He shows the 1.6 kit here. I don't know if I would order from him without the protection of Ebay, but that's just me.
I got mine from autozone, it was just the belts and pulleys and it was about $30 cheaper than OEM.

I bought all mine from Mazda Comp about 6 months ago. They actually had a brand new waterpump, MazdaSouth told me they could only get a rebuilt one.
What protection? Unless the amount of money involved is worth pursuing an attorney then you're pretty much :nutkick:Quote:
