What have you done to your Festiva today!?

^^ Charlie used an NA (89-98 ) for his and mine is off an NB series (98-05). Either should work as long as it's non-ABS, just a slight difference in the lines coming off the MC. On the NA you have to plug 2 extra holes and with the NB it's only one. I'm not sure about using a NC setup because I didn't really research if that series would work since there are so many NA and NB booster/mc setups for sale on Ebay.

I think the NB is more of a direct swap since it has line locations like the Festiva. I think the NA ones may have a line coming from each side instead of both on the right.

I removed this:






And replaced it with this:




That's a booster and master cylinder from a 2000 Miata. The brakes are wayyyy better now :mrgreen: Best 50 bucks I've spent on brakes so far. After driving the car a few miles, I now wish I had done it sooner.


*I wanna give a big shoutout to Charlie (AdvanceDynamix) for planting the seed to try this swap.* :thumbup:

What is the year range does it start with your 2000 or it is back in a few years as well

Just for the record, I responded to Bravekozak's response to my post about the wiper motor. Don't know how it got connected to the stat post.

I was going to try an use this fix... http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...pie+Mirror+Fix

[bravekozak]

The mirror is held in place under tension by a single pin from behind the plastic power mirror motor housing. If it were me, I would operate and get a Protege mirror from the junk yard. Do you want to buy just a mirror with the pivot from me? or do you want to send the mirror to me for a rebuild?

[Prafeston]

Prafeston, you really need Festiva sail plates.

...then I guess I can swap the plate from the broken driver mirror I have. Are the really that different?

Awhile back I swapped my manual mirrors with a member for his swoopies. The passenger swoopie needed the mirror secured and the driver mirror has cracked and had a hole in it. Well this weekend I found a Protege that had a busted passenger mirror, but a good drivers mirror so I decided to snag it to have an easier start for my power mirror project. This drivers mirror does wobble a bit so that will need addressed. I'll also be painting them the color of my car most likely.
