Awesome! He does great work, I'd love to see some pics of it now

Have fun getting the holesaw through the inner guard, i gave up with mine and attacked it with a 1/8 drill then belted it out :(

haha. if i get frustrated and give up, i can get a pneumatic drill and a tungsten hole saw at my door within a couple hours for nothin.

ladies and gentlemen, i have two words for you;

IT'S ALIVE!

started the 200 a little over 2 hours ago, tended to any leaks (there was 1), fitted the turbotech mbc (too lazy to wire in the ebc tonight), made sure the cooling system was going as it should, and put the front end back together. gonna have a shower and take it for a spin. :yes:

scratch that. problems already. hit a little over 1bar for a second on a test drive, pulled over straight away and readjusted the controller, problem is, now it isnt boosting over 0.5 bar no matter what i do, and it hits a wall at 5k rpm. :thanks:

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
