- I could spend it on brakes rotors and pads, as Sakura needs better brakes since it's rusty in the back and they don't seem to brake as it's supposed to be, but they still brake good though.
or
- I could spend it on new diff fluid and transmission fluid and do the flush myself. I'd try to save the brakes and inspect them properly at the same time. She needs wipers too.
or
- I could enjoy life with it.
or
- I could save it up for later use.
What would you do? It's 450ish$ btw....

Are you sure you need a diff and gearbox flush? Did you check the oil already? is it dirty? If not, go for the brakes... Most likely more needed than a trans and diff flush....

Well I tend to change everything like the manufacturer schedule asks if I haven't done it myself. The shifter is getting a tad more notchy then when I had it.

Then spend it on something that will come back to you as more value, namely, car repairs that would help keep the value of the car up. Brakes might be worth more than transmission fluid in that regard, but depends on how badly it needs the new dif and transmission fluid...

You can probably save some cash on the brakes by just having the rotors turned instead of just buying new ones.

I dont know yet, but I like to know that it's done by me and that I don't need to worry about it.

I could get Brembo blanks for 250ish but I want something cheaper. I wanted NAPA blanks but there's no NAPA sellers in Montreal...Then I gotta get pads. Probably some PBR pads. GREAT STUFF!!! I was better than OEM on my Mazda 3 and OEM was already amazing!

I guess some brakes are pretty cheap, have to remember too, a Miata doesn't need as much brake as a 350Z, lol.. Also, I have expensive taste, and tend to not settle for less... might have to on brakes.. but I mean... http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/descripti… < Hnngggggggg.... I don't need mine replaced, just need bigger brakes, so I do need to spend more on mine anyway, lol
