just thought id pop in and say NNNNNNNNUGGGGEETTTTT

GTFO :P

Said it a few times mate. Love your car.

Nice stealth look to it bro!

Haha thanks mate!

nugGeT-T....

That is NuggeTeeTee to you Mr! :laugh:

Replaced it this morning with a BMC filter that a mate gave me a while ago... Its red so it should go faster!

You can also see el custom eh catcha can! JEM fabbed it up inhouse and its a perfect fit!!!

Notice much difference with the filter change? Mine are about 100 years old and I've never bothered touching them.

Not yet mate, only drove it from my work to the next street this morning to use a workshops hoist for an hour... It was pretty damn dirty though, will have to put a light in the old one and see how much is shining through!

With the cold Z221s on the car as soon as it swings past 2500-3000 rpm it just wants to light the tyres even on low throttle so i just cruised :) That and the fact i had no brakes on the way there lol

I guess you'd never really feel the 2hp difference it would make anyway.

I have old K&N filters that are pretty much black now but light still shines through them so I left them haha.

Yeah i wouldn't imagine it would be too noticeable... But 2hp will help :P Coz Racecar...

If there is light, there is airflow :P

Honda boys swear by hektic air filters "noticeable gains" LOL...

man, that's a snug fit but looks porn!

But 2hp is a large percentage of their total output so if course its noticeable :P

f**k that catch can looks sexy! do want!

Also those brake pads are rooted lol

Yeah the guys have done a killer job on it... You cant see the rest of it, stealth! :ph34r:

Looking forward to your results bro, also looking forward to hearing how you go with the new pads...Really looking forward to seeing that 1:06!!!

Remember to not to go hard for a whole session. Do 2-3 quick laps at most and then cool it down. Your braking might last a bit longer! I think some more braking thermal capacity is needed!!!

BEAUTIFUL

Inspiringly gorgeous, the engine bay, the fuel system, everything! love it!!!!!!!!

You've go me wanting to go down the black everything path when i dive into the wonderful world of turbochargers

Keep up the great work, what a read!

is covered by air box yet still paints it black... GG

Mat's stealth needs to be stealth :ph34r:

This is correct! :yes:

Yo dawg, i heard you like stealth so i stealthed your stealth :P

    • What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new 
    • Just came across this, but in QLD I start leave again in 2 weeks, if it is still available I might drive up and check it out Unless, @MBS206 do you live near here????, if so I could hit you up with a finders fee https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hope-island/auto-body-parts/nc-mx5-factory-hard-top/1328976391
    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
