Here it is:

I'd do it, but I only own 2 tools, a small shifter and a phillips head screw-driver, was going to see if someone else wants to do this, someone who actually owns tools and see if I can bum the use of them and do the mod on both cars, you up for it Nex?

I also wouldnt mind seeing how well the stock BOV does venting to atmos, last time I tried it had major idling problems, then I did it all it did was exasperate them, but now that the idling probs are gone, might try venting the stock to atmo cause it's blood loud, sounds awesome, also can just hook the line back up for normal eeveryday driving, take off for rice style attension :D or make that cop attractor :)

i had to cut the hose that goes into the blitz bov as it was too long. So the only thing ill have to do if i wanna put the stock one back on is get a new hose.

It sounds good but im still not sure about adjusting it 100% as there is the nut on the side where the hose goes in, but then theres a nut on top of the bov too i dont know what that does?

    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
