Didn't know where to put this but felt compelled to do it anyway. Thank you one and all for this forum. The information I needed was posted here years before I bought my 02 SE miata. The pictures and descriptions of the VVT actuator were exactly what I was looking for. It even had a working link to a rebuild kit from miataroadster.com that I promptly bought. I've been a member for years now but don't post much because I'm a dumb *** who needs to read and wrench more and write less. I am however, smart enough to know supporting companies that help keep this going is important. So it warms my heart and empties my pockets to keep the money in the community. Thanks again.

 

Pos-Cat added for using the Search function to find what you needed - MUCH better and faster for finding answers that should have been asked before.
Don't be afraid to add your own comments for the benefit of others too (especially "gotchas" and tips, the forum is meant to help everyone - if they've done some research at least).
