Transmission Rebuild Literature
Is there any online publications or links to an FSM of sorts that brings you completely through the teardown and rebuild of the '99-05 Miata 6-spd Aisin gearboxs? I've got one on the way to me tomorrow and I need some assistance in the rebuild. The FSM has always allowed me to do anything.
Thanks much guys

Damn, thanks for the quickest response to a question that I have EVER posted on ANY forum.
Own manual you say? The FE shares the same Aisin box and I have links to that FSM online but it only covers the removal/installation. That probably has it's own book as well. Perhaps I can coax the local Mazda dealership that I have a good relationship with to let me copy it? Worth asking before I call up Finishline or order it from the local dealership or MazdaMotorsports. I bet it's not cheap.
Anyway, thanks again.

Brothers. I am bumping this fine thread because I am disappointed.
Why you ask?
I am highly disappointed that the fine FSM literature for our vehicles, is a ******* joke. Its one thing that the manuals are rather plain and lack detail, that I can accept and deal with.. its understandable. What I cannot deal with however, is how Mazda is selling multiple FSMs a la carte. We have the MAIN manual, which covers general repair. We have a separate manual for the MOTOR, and a separate manual for the TRANSMISSION. Jesus ******* christ, its times like this when I really have regrets for buying a MAZDA.
So now, I already have a copy of the 1999 FSM. And, I already have a copy of the 99-05 Engine FSM. What I need is, a copy of the TRANSMISSION FSM. Does anyone have a copy that you can share? Please post.
Mazda sucks even more ***** because the engine FSM is "NO LONGER AVAILABLE." Seriously Mazda, its not hard to print a pamplet.. religious nuts print flyers and brochures all the time. Worse, the Mazda literature appears to be printed on toilet paper. At least thats what it felt like when I wiped my *** with it...??? :-)
Thanks
Mike

Have you tried the Library yet? I've rebuilt a 90-93 5 speed, 2 700-R4s, 727 Torqueflite, 2 46REs, 10&12 bolt GM rear end, Chrysler 9.25, Chrysler 8.75, ford 9", a Dana 44 quick disconnect and installed a MS2 and EDIS8 on a 4th gen camaro all with reference material from the library.
If you can't find one online, I would check it out and see what they have. You might get lucky and find what your looking for.

seriously, the library? no offense, but i highly doubt they'de have the actual mazda fsm. im not saying there isnt good info out there, but a factory FSM? thats asking a bit much.
thanks!
btw, if anyone needs a copy of the 99-05 BP Motor Manual, let me know. I scanned it in a couple weeks ago.

Maybe not the actual Mazda version but the 3" thick $200 Chiltons that the shops use with complete teardown, inspection, overhaul and rebuild with all the specs and excerpts directly from the FSM. I didn't believe it either, until I saw it with my own eyes.
Actually, if memory serves me correctly, the manual for the Miata was the FSM, I believe the others were the Chiltons.
Granted, all Libraries are not the same, I'm in a large Metro area with some huge libraries. Only one way to know for sure, call them and find out.
