Loving this thing at the moment, just gotta fix the limmiter issue, hits the hard limmiter before the soft limmiter so dies for 5 seconds then power comes back.

Other than that so much fun, effing loud but i dont do laps through town in it.

Still havnt got any vids, never seem to have days off the same time as my mates, or if we do were off 4wding.

Finally got around to recoating the pillars with some more CF wrap so their not white and shitty, looks so much better.

Havnt done a great deal to this lately.

Got some proper Bride rails to replace the dodgy one's we made, have re-done the catch can, as in put one in instead of just a bare filter, replaced some blue silicone hoses with black to match the rest and mounted up a fire extinguisher as having its first track day the 27th of this month.

Still havnt fixed the limmiter issue, looks like a trip to the tuners before the track day to try and sort it :(

Well never got the limiter issue sorted before the track day, so did a mix of sprints and drifting, was hard drifting trying to keep one eye on the tacho and one on the road, also hard trying to keep it off the damn limiter!

Had fun none the less till i broke the gearbox, stuck in 3rd :( more money. I'll rip it out this weekend and drop it off to a mate to check it out, hopefully its just a selector or something.

I am also very rusty haha!!

Pic is off the drive home, stuck in 3rd, not fun!!

Well this has been back on the road after quite a rest waiting for the gbox to get done as the dude was busy as hell.

Chucked in a Nismo 2way whilst it was off the road, after driving with it for a while i really dont know why it took me so long to put one in, forgot how nice they are. Also tracked down a stock S2 lip spoiler with the brake light and did a few other little things ive been putting off.

Just waiting for a track day or motorkhana to use the damn thing.

Anyone know a good brand for a oil filter sandwich plate? The cheap remote oil filter mount is leaking on this again so i just want to put something good on it.

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
