What years are these from, are they a direct bolt on to a 1.6 throttle body?

If I'm not mistaken, the 323 followed the same TPS rule as the Miata during the 1.6 period. That TPS will only fit a 1.6 Miata that has a throttle body from an automatic-transmission application. 1.6 engines with the manual-transmission throttle body will need to use something like Wells TPS201, or the sensor from a 90s-vintage 5/7-series BMW.

I don't remember switching the whole throttle body/TPS. It was several years ago I did this. I will have to go check.

Crap. Joe is right. Just compared the two, and they are different. My memory fails me...I should have picked up the TBs at pick'n'pull as well :S

Sorry folks, you WILL need the automatic TB if you want to use these.

Thanks Joe for saving me a most potentially embarrassing sale of something that is NOT a direct replacement!
