I replaced my castor bushings with superpro ones. When getting an alignment done, the castor was slightly different between the wheels but it hasn't proven to be a big deal. However if I were to replace the bushes again I would have just bought adjustable arms.

That must make it Adelaide cruise time! There are a few people keen for a Feb cruise.

I did really exciting things to my car: I retuned the throttle. *YAWN* Feels better though.

Omg a m35 has new wheels def time for a adelaide cruise lmao

Nah they look good dunc cant wait to see them on .

But all jokes aside def time for a adelaide cruise

Considering he's had the car off the road for months and missed a years worth of cruises, I think it's warranted.

Micro SD to USB adaptor.

So neat and out of the way. Less likely to knock it and bust your usb input port. It barely sticks out lol.

Neat job you did on the gauge intstall and surround.

I received a red and yellow box today with the same two letters repeated. Wating on another box to arrive with HKB on it.

Thanks guys :)

Yeah made it up, was quite a bit of work.

Just a few pics from the weekends work;

Spent 3 hours with a red sharpie permanent marker fixing the sun-bleached red stitching because my car has spent soooooo much time sitting in the sun at my mech having work done. That, and the fact that I only have a carport available until my under-house 4 car spots are ready...

On a brighter not, my internals arrived on Monday and went straight to the machine shop, where my block is waiting: hopefully I'll be looking at an almost complete engine in the next week, then it's being on the run-in week of driving pleasure!!

Destroyed a new $1600 clutch at willowbank last night! Whatever holds the throw out bearing in the pressure plate (pull type clutch) decided to fail

So started the process of pulling out the box, had to cut the front drive shaft bolts with a grinder because a un named favorite business on here who fitted the clutch rounded the nuts off.

took out the gauge cluster out of the m35 (volts boost torque) removed the boost and installed a 30psi autometer one in its place. works a treat and for the first time since scotty did all the mods i know how much boost its running hahah

get a hdi EBC with digital gauge.

Craig had nothing but problems with his HDI and I am now of the opinion a good mechanical option is best. He already has my HD actuator fitted, and the manual bleeder is a solid performer. No need for the defectable electronic options imo, even though they allow slightly better response. (due to the little spike they give.)

Although, some EBC's have an overboost warning, this is more important than a boost gauge I feel.

+1

No difference in performance between the hdi and turbosmart T.....Ive been swapping between tge 2 for weeks.

The only really difference is the hdi spikes like a mofo and the T maintains control.

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
