Lol fag

how'd soccer go? thought you'd have a heart attack since your lazy asss never goes gym hahah

was almost gonna say where ya playin an come past.. but then i ddint get out of bed till 1230. zzzz

[funkymonkey]

yeah woulda taken 13.5, esp interstate buyer cos there'd be no post purchase hassles either.

in other news, keeping an eye out for a LSx v8 conversion kit to finish development for the NC MX5. Hopefully in a year or two. Once it is, goodbye Golf... hello LS1 powered MX5. Currently there's only kits for older MX5's, and the whole kit including engine only adds a smidgen under 100kg to the car mmm RWD v8 gokart deathtrap.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

ive been in a supercharged MX5 and that was rad..... an LSx would be phenominally deadly!

[xALmoN]

Soccer was great haha I'm a machine, I still play indoor so that kinda keeps me fit. Your the slack one, who stays in bed that late haha

We played at the synthetic court at the school on Pt Cook rd near sanctuary lakes.

Fixed for accuracy...

except that's using the sack of shit toyota V8, not an all alloy LS engine, and it's in a chassis that's old. The NC chassis is balls out fun, and handles great in N/A form, so if I can put an LS engine into an NC chassis, it'd be perfect for my needs. Then I could just supercharge it for shits n giggles

The LS conversion kits for the older MX5's they do in the US even preserves the weight balance by moving the engine further back than standard. Bullets are front heavy and handle like ass, been in one for a drive, the owner kept understeering and then snap oversteering to correct.

very nice cheap evo 8 on carsales, yellow for 27k

so tempting

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

nah, NC or GTFO. They cost about 25k atm, in a year I should be able to pick one up for about 20k. 10k for conversion = 30k deathtrap.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

saw an NC with what i assume was an LS1 conversion a lil while back...

baby candy blue with chrome rims, an the badge said MX5.7

v8 noise and wheelspin city

[paulr33]

damn that evo 8 is so tempting

perfectly setup with all the basic mods done

looks like a basic track pack on it

maybe trashed :-)

[krzysiu]

But it's yellow :s

[funkymonkey]

and it's an evo 8. better off getting an evo 7 RS or getting a locally delivered evo 9. why waste money on the middle child? only evo 8 worth getting is an Evo 8 MR, anything less is just a waste of money.

[paulr33]

i really like it in yellow, looks great

theres something i really like about it

and dont really like 7s

agree MR is the ideal model

[paulr33]

damn al's car was impressive

3 litre big single is where it's at

flat out power, response, oodles of torque and all round nice engine setup

[Count Grantleyish]

Paul, you buying EVO?
