Was so looking at bidding on that but with just purchasing a new body kit, wheels, fmic and other goodies I should probably get all that out of the way first. And only living in a town house I don't know where the hell I would have stored it all :D But congrats, thats got to be the best way about going for a manual conversion and from what I could tell from the pics there looks to be a centre console there too! You bastard :)

Now we just need a few more 260RS's to be written off and I can bid again next time one comes up !jokes! :D

no f**king clue

ill figure it out

morning Nic

Good luck with the wiring thing/mission fella, I had no idea there was so much s$%t under there, should be easy for a decent auto=sparkie, plus bonus Saki hey?

On another (completely unfocused from your immediate challenge, sorry) subject; Don't suppose you could post details/part #/Kit#supplier/source/where can I get one of these easyfit things from kindof info for your oil filter relocation setup by any chance. That is if you haven't already done this worthy deed in which case apologies & maybe point me in the right die-rection 'cos a "Graham look" didn't do it for me.

Cheers GW :unsure:

tghere is everything, console, pedals, ebrake etc etc etc

expect a lengthy writeup and parts list of what came with my kit and of course huge amount of pictures

I still hate you :wave:;):O

I can't believe it went for that price. I think I worked it out to be around $3500 to $4000 approx by the time it got to my door (which is a hell of a lot less than what you paid) but still a good deal considering EVERYTHING it came with.

Ahh well there will be another.......wont there :unsure:

And yeah I'm looking forward to the write up too...good luck!

Arrrrrrrrrgh! I live in the woods, don't have local friendly Greddy dealer, lucky to be able to buy BP Ultimate to be truthful soooooooooo.............no chance of posting the part number so can just specify & buy correct kit via internet. Yup, we do have data connection to the rest of the world. God bless Telstra. :)

Congrats on the purchase!!!

Just as a note the wiring side of the auto to manual swap is dead simple. Most of it comes unplugged behind the LF headlight & is removed when you take the Auto out. Then all you need to do is bridge the auto inhibitor switch so it will start & run a wire back from another plug for the reverse lights. Inside the car you will need to lengthen the wire from the handbrake lever to the new one on the trans tunnel. And that my friend is it.

See my Manual Conversion Guide for pics of the plugs.

      Poor bleeding. That stupid damping loop in the plumbing that should be completely replaced with a braided hose. Just the first 2 that come to mind.

      Forgive the potentially silly question but are the vents for bay temps? I've been toying with how to reduce my bay temps because man, it gets HOT in there and a small subtle vent somewhere I think might help. Or, maybe they're to assist with just the intake temps?

      My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
