When I got it it was a stock motor and ecu, JIC coilovers with tein springs(the tein bit wore off though), it had a ultra cool flashing inerior light (LOL), s15 rims, vertex front bar, no rear wing, low as all fark, an aftermarket no name clutch(this died in the end and a Aust clutch is in there now, ummmmm... It had a Jap stereo but only the CD player worked here, and even that died eventually.

Thats about the gist of it really haha, It has a very smooth driveline, I serviced it like literally every 3-4000kms(only with gtx 2 though haha) but the body was very rough, so I dare say it had seen sideways action before. J-Spec imports brought it here but I wasnt impressed so we wont talk about that anymore haha...

cool

the interior light flashes really slow now so i think thats dieing

abs just shat itself so sometimes when you go to brake you have to pump the pedal to get some pressure going

and there are some strange noises but it will be getting a full service very soon

reid (guy i bought it off) gave me some no name 5 puck clutch with not much meat on it so i guess that is only good for a paper weight

and a few nuts and bolts missing here and there

its going all right but a few things to fix up - yay for old cars

who molested the parcel shelf to get some 6x9's in?

:S none of that has anything to do with me :thumbsup: Although the ABS always had a very slight leak, Id just convert to NON abs if I was you. Though the clutch sounds like the one Ross and I put in it. It had all its nuts (pun intended lol) when I had it haha.

Edited by Drifterdan

yeah would do but i want to keep abs just for a safety thing

clutch is pretty good still

but will have to go get some screws and things cos a few are missing now

anyone suggest where to go in launie for assorted bolts and screws?

    • 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
