nearly 7 months ago i picked up a wrecked r33 s1.5 pretty cheaply as one of my mates dads is a panel beater and i knew i could get it fixed pretty cheap. what i didnt know was that he would f*ck around for so long doing it. as the job was mates rates the car was worked on in spare time between jobs. well seven long ass months later i have the car and she was registered as of friday and im now on the road! it ended up pretty good i think as the car you see owes me $10.5k + on roads. looking forward to cruises and all sorts of events that SAU QLD has to offer! (pics are a bit shite but u get the idea)

Awesome, 7 months passion will be rewarded.

Im sure you have a smile from ear to ear.

haha you couldnt be more right! the whole time driving it home i couldnt stop smiling :D

time to spend more on mods.

thats the plan aye, although being a brokeass uni student makes it hard. i had to do awful things to come up with the money as it was.

Im sure you will be welcome at one of our meets, come to dinner one tuesday and meet the members club.

couldnt be more keen but tuesday nights are out of the question for me :thumbsup:

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
