I must have missed my postie by like 5mins today as i emptied it, went upstairs and come back and i had more surprised :D

He managed to get them into my letterbox though so all good

Cheers Phil :)

No worries guys, great to hear they rocked up safely. I always worry they are going to magnetically attach themselves to something and get lost lol.

Mine turned up yesterday so I started looking thru the shed to see what I can lift with the sump plug. First thing I found was a hammer :worship:

Hope this doesnt pull the crank out of my block. hahaha

Thanks Phil

These black hole things are definitely fragile...separated all of them to put them onto oil filter today, and one of the middle ones in the stack was already broken in half :(

I might open it up tonight if I get some time. Hopefully this one won't fill so damn quickly so I get a chance to PM all the people that missed out. A bunch of my mates want to get some more so I'll have to check with them aswell.

Has another buy been started? Depending on peoples feed back i'm keen.

Look at the thread above or below which has at least 5 pages of comments and states the title "Group buy #3"

Mine arrived all good.

Apsolute shit. Braught one of these of a guy who didnt use it. 2 services the tread snapped off the magnet! Very very poor build qaulity! Be very careful boys!

What do you mean the "thread snapped off the magnet"? That doesn't make any sense there is no thread on the magnet and the magnet is epoxied inside the bolt. Do you mean the bolt snapped? The bolts aren't titanium, if you start applying force to the bolt if it isn't going in correctly any steel bolt will snap. Without knowing the full story behind something don't simply make up bullshit that they are shit and are poor build quality due to one incident.

If you want to PM me and discuss a replacement I will gladly speak to Richard about what could have caused the failure (what ever it is that you mean).

    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • 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".
