Hey Mark !. Sorry to hear it man. Not too long to go --hang in there. I've got it all ahead of me.Court next month

Next meet we will have to have a "go slow" through Sydney..like 20Kph through town Maybe 50 V's - Stop traffic !

  • 5 weeks later...

My new Series II 350GT gets a view of the ocean (yes - that over-exposed bit. Hey, it's with an iPhone!) near the QLD/NSW border. Picked up the car from Nagoya Motors in Sydney and took it for a return drive to the Gold Coast. Figured it was the best way to clear the cob-webs... :)

..what do you think? been getting lots of looks this week.

i reckon some 20s, lowering springs, black plates and de-badging wouldn't go astray.

Hey Elie... I am actually not too sure what is the name of the colour. I know the code is B30 and Dave (Spong) was telling me it's call lakeshore blue in the US. :( Do we have the same colour? Somehow think this is a slightly more rare colour as I haven't seen many... which is good! ;)

Yep same colour. Only seen three others in Syd in three years so far. (must be a few more by now). & People still tell me how nice the colour is. What are you rims..aint seen them before ? is she Manual or Auto ? I was lucky & got the fact 19in, Impul lip spoiler & cumputer chip, and Fujitsubu exhaust. Another shot in the light highlights the differing shades. Good on ya son !

Hey Elie,

I actually haven't seen a single one with the same colour here in Auckland since I started looking for a v35 coupe. Only saw some sedans before in that colour. Normally the v35 coupes here are silver, black or white. I think the colour is awesome!

Mine's an auto. Pretty much stock in terms of the body and exhaust. The japanese owner is however nice enough to add in a pair of Alpine tweeters for the stereo and the best thing is the rim. It's a set of ProDrive forged rims!

Certainly enjoying my car now!

Where did you get projectors from? I assume USA - in which case they are totally illegal as they will be biased toward oncoming traffic, whereas Jap headlights are biased toward the footpath.

If not, where from and how much? :P

    • What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new 
    • Just came across this, but in QLD I start leave again in 2 weeks, if it is still available I might drive up and check it out Unless, @MBS206 do you live near here????, if so I could hit you up with a finders fee https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hope-island/auto-body-parts/nc-mx5-factory-hard-top/1328976391
    • 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
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
