Chapter 01
NA and NB, and why this yard has them
This is the car we are known for. The Mazda Miata, NA and NB generation, is a running thread through the yard rather than a one-off shelf, and it shows in how much of the car we can cover: engines and transmissions, suspension, body panels and trim, interior parts, electrical and wheels and tyres all come through Patterson Road on a Miata basis, not just a general foreign-import basis.
That matters because a small two-seater does not get the same aftermarket attention as a full-size truck, and an owner who has kept one running this long already knows how thin that support can be. Foreign and domestic both move through this yard, but the Miata is the one where the counter actually knows the car.

The parts that go first on a car this age
Interior trim and electrical connectors are the pieces that go brittle first on a car this old, and they are also the pieces a new-parts catalogue tends to have gone quiet on. Suspension components take the next hit, since a light chassis that has been driven the way these get driven wears its bushings and mounts on its own schedule.
Bring the year and, where you have it, the trim detail, because the NA and NB span enough production years that a part which fits one will not fit another without a check. That is a two-minute conversation at the counter, in English or Spanish, before anything gets pulled.
Chapter 03
Buying for a car that is being kept, not just fixed
Most of what comes through this counter for a Miata is not a one-off repair. It is somebody keeping the car on the road because they want to keep driving it, which changes the conversation from what is cheapest to what will actually hold. Every part is tested before it is sold, and that check matters more on a car where a wrong part means pulling it back off a week later.
The 90-day limited warranty applies here the same as on any other used part, mechanical parts guaranteed for that same window. If what you are chasing is not already on the shelf, the part-locating service can go looking, and a free estimate comes back inside one to two days either way.

Warranty terms for a Miata part are the same as any other
A used Miata part carries the same 90-day limited warranty and the same electrical and body-part exceptions as anything else that leaves this yard. The full terms are on our warranties page. If what you are after is a general part rather than something Miata-specific, our used auto parts page covers the wider shelf.
