up for sale is my baby ive only owned for 6 months, bought it stock from a guy who was in the Army and i am the 3rd owner (with the sales recepits to prove it). the last owner had it for 11 years and the owner before that abviously since new. All the mods have happened ion my short ownership. Genuine reason for sale, the salvation Army cruise (some may remember) i didnt stop at a stop sign while trying to avoid the police, unfortunately that cost me 3 points and inevitably my license (letter should be here any day).

I may trade for an import for a slightly smaller price as id love to have something new to fiddle with over the 6 month loss, and i miss my silvia. something along the 180/S13/r32/r33 line is where im thinking. the car isnt perfect, but the kms are genuine and for the age of the car it is in very good nic, a credit to its two previous owners. A few little scratches inside the door panels are the main problem and unless your a perfectionist i doubt you would notice. It is awesome on fuel, about $30 of ultimate will fill the tank for 400-450kms and insurance is cheap as well.Anyway a bit more info on the car

1990 Mazda Mx5 (Aus delivered)

202,000kms

Volk 15x6.5 +19 wheels

brand new Bridgestone Potenza RE001's all round

overall the car is a great package and all it really needs is some of the parts i have fitted and some form of LSD to finsish it off. buyer wont be dissappointed, the car is a lot of fun and something different on SA roads. Pm me with any questions at all about the car, no hassles at all. here are a few pics of it. any questions feel free to ask. im willing to sell less some of the mods as i still have all the stock parts, pending what you dont want well go from there

    • Good to see your rotors appear as rusty as mine šŸ¤Ŗ
    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, Iā€™m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, Iā€™ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmationĀ  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4 Ā  idle video from that day just becauseĀ 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!) Ā  Ā  I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding). Ā  I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springsĀ  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
