Head Gaskets
Mazda MX5 Miata
Genuine Mazda Part
Graphite construction for 1.6L
Multi-Layer-Steel construction for 1.8L
Boosting your car? We offer a upgraded perfromance head gasket from Cometic as well, we normally carry the standard size or 0.5mm O/S gaskets on hand, please enquire with us if you’re looking for something custom.
Note the VVT head gasket does fit non-VVT cars, and offers some increased cooling efficiency. Mazda changed the layout of the coolant ports to try and combat the issue of cylinder #4 getting hot. We find this is most efficient on stock cars WITHOUT a coolant reroute. If you have a 1.8 with a coolant reroute, standard 1.8 head gasket offers the best cooling.
