Default Big Shout Out to Mrmiata

I know this may be unusual but I want to go out of my way to extend my gratitude to Mrmiata. I spent over 4 hours trying to route amp wires from my cabinet to the engine bay. I was about to give up and hire an instiller to especially route my wires. But before doing so I came home and posted a thread begging for assistance from the forum here. Mrmiata immediately came to my aid and provided guidance. Following his instructions I went back to my car and in 7 to 10 minutes had the wires for my amp totally installed and hooked up.

This may be a small thing but look at it from my vantage point---someone who had completely given up after going at this for over 4 hours and ready to give my money away. Every time I find my self in a pickle it is senior forum members like Mrmiata who have stepped forward and bailed me out. It is guys like that who make this forum work and who make my experience with my crossfire most pleasurable. Again, thanks Mrmiata for being there---AGAIN

SrWilliams

Thanks guys! But your going to ruin my rep with 3/4 the forum with this! LOL.

SrWilliams.. I was pretty much obsessed (just ask my wife) with learning about this car and have many many hours of reading and researching this forum.

It's nice to get a thumbs up from members, but the real thanks goes to all those before me who pioneered the digging into this car and it's mysteries.

Mrmiata (Greg..his close pals can call him Greg LOL...

Ditto srwilliams...mrmiata is another asset to this forum that is underrated . I've met him and he is one of the nicest "dudes" you will ever meet ...not to mention the knowledge/know-how/willingness and ready in a "pinch" (inside joke) to advise and help with most anything Crossfire... Keep the Flame burning, Greg...you are appreciated by many...Carl

In fact, he is in the process, at this time, helping me on a very important project that could save me 100s...Mr. 'You are the man"

Thanks Carl.. and even though this "project" is taking a while.. trust me it's on my mind daily. Just a lot going on lately. Last thing I want to do is "half-***" this by trying to rush through. Waste of my time and gets you a useless part. A metal template will get me the correct contours.. Just going to have to dedicate an afternoon with my hammer and anvil.. Should change my name to Thor after this one.. LOL

LOL Adrian.. we were just on that quest at the same time.. I really do appreciate you guys "honoring" me here.. but there are several members that help out just as much if not more. Even 180 once you get past the sarcasm ..

I need to thank Mrmiata for the multifunction tool he made and shipped to me, many thanks! I cleaned it up and painted it and put it in the car.

Well since we are all kissing Gregs *** here, I better get in line before it gets around the corner.

Not any 1 thing in particular but greg and I have shared a couple of Crossfire adventures, and I have found him a knowledgeable and pleasant fellow with which to do business.

Truly a Scholar and a Gentleman.

And to think.. 3 years ago I was just a nobody here.. LOL.

Just doing what I can folks. This is a great forum because of everything members do for each other. Whether it's a discounted reasonable price on extra parts - flashing arrow to ebay for a great deal.. or just answering questions to point members in the right direction.

EVERYONE makes this forum what it is.

Well...... As long as we're giving a group hug here, I'll throw in an atta boy to Miata and all the other enthusiastic members that continue to help others here. And a respectful nod to all the seniors mentioned earlier that paved the road for us. I know that I personally have saved thousands with the intel from the seniors before us. Armed with all the Forum knowledge here, many of us are better X-Fire mechanics/troubleshooters than any dealer, that's for sure!! Speaking of the original senior members; I kinda miss some of the old gents. Several of them just faded away after the political section of the forum was discontinued.

I have enjoyed Greg's wit and humor the last few years, and give him 5 stars for willing to help out with problems.
Looking forward to finally meeting up this fall.
Back in the days of the political forum threads, he was really in his element.
