i'v got a stock Turbo R33 2door series 2 .. still using my sexy stock 16" skyline rims...

if i had no intention to drift but to still take round-abouts and the odd quick decision around a bend would i be safe with just using bilstein coil-overs?

or do i gotta go spend more money on sway bars and camber arms etc etc

huh?

accelerate at a slower pace and keep the rear in tact if u dun wanan drift

if u do snap the steering back and stomp it !!

if u want better handling/response/less body roll get new suspension/sway bars etc

if you just want something that will handle half alright, and you just need it to do what you want occasionally, the bilstien setup should be good. You can probably get a cheaper setup using some KYB's if you just have a little play now and then. Do a search in this forum for KYB for the exact setup someone here is using, cost them under 1k. if youre a bit more serious doing full spirited runs might want to go bushes/swaybar/strut brace. coilovers can be cheap but might be bit harsh, be worth having a ride in a car fitted with 'X' coilover before buying.

agree with ronin on the grammar. R32 Driver.........

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
