its real easy. im sure if you sit with your laptop next to you someone could walk you through.

pop hood,
take off brake resivior cap
jack up car,
take off wheels,
take off caliper bracket,
compress piston,
(apply grease to back of pad/caliper)
put pads on main caliper assembly,
put caliper bracket back on,
repeat on other side,
top off brake fluid if needed,
bleed brakes if needed,
throw wheels back on,
lower car,
lower hood,
drive happy


to check timing

find out what stock timing is,
get timing light,
aim at crank pully,
align with whatever the miata has for checking timing,
if its blinks with the adjuster you are good to go,
if not, then you adjust timing.


get a service manual for your car.
