um choas and nismoman18 went to some hill near hinze dam. I would have linked the photo but I forgot what it looked like. its overlooks surfers.

the port of brisbane has heaps of nice spots.

yar, been there

if i can keep the car nice and clean until the weekend, ill go for a punt down there and take some pix

On a side note, who's doing the detailing, whats getting done and how much is it going to cost?

we called a few places, but ended up going with the closest one

they are D&W Detailers and they work under Fair Deal Cars at Annerley on Ipswich road

gonna cost 200 bux for the full cut and polish and we are getting the insides all done as well (all shampooed and nice and clean)

been meaning to get it done for ages and since woman scraped the side of the car on the garage the other day, it was extra motivation to get it all cleaned up

shit!

best places are where water is almost perfectly in line with the land

IE if the water rose even a little, it would flood

park car close to water as u can, go out in the water,

hopefully its either nice and sunny, sunset or sunrise

and u should get a nice photo with the contrast of the sun along your car, the reflection of your car in the water, and if on the right angle, it will look like your car is sitting on the water

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
