The mx5 just needs a turbo.....

I've got one coming next week for a cage, apparently it's a turbocharged factory engine, goes well or so the owner bangs on about it going well.

Having driven one with a R34 GT-R turbo on it, I wholeheartedly agree. :thumbsup:

In stock for MX5's are mint little pieces of kit (Ignore the hairdresser comments, it's a rear wheeler)

With a turbo they are bags of fun and quite fast too.

My housemate is putting a overbored built 1.9 with a 2871R on it into an NA, fully stripped out, full cage, carbon hard top the works.

thing will be an animal.

yeah I did a motor in practice, and it's going to be sitting around for a while because my racing budget needs to go onto the house

the prod cars are getting damn quick....one of the guys was in the low 1.05s

Once you have raced one there does become a bit of a love hate relationship.

Mine was temperamental but when it was on the car was phenomenal. In the end once we got the thing sorted it was a winning car in the category's we ran it in.

There is something about them which draws you back ;)

the only thing I'd trade the GTR for is a GTR

and don't anybody try changing this lunatics views. I tried every option I could think of,,,including alcohol but to no avail.

When his bitch is running great she's a bloody missile,,,a 1.08 in IMPR traffic is quick,,,shit I've even done a 1.16 trundling around. What shits me the most is we always seem to be playing catch up. Never do we get a chance to actually improve the thing.

    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
    • 75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive. 
    • Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof
    • 99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.
    • I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
