Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a front bumper for a S1 and rough price as the fibreglass one on the Stag I recently got it stuffed and seems like cheaper to replace than repair? Prefer a Dayz one, but even a stock RS4 front would do.

OK guys, 2nd last payment is pending and then I'm just waiting on gersfan.. if anyone knows him or how to get in contact with him please let me know or get him to contact me!

I shall allow him the weekend, if no response then I will place the order on Monday as we already have our minimum.

G`Day lads ,

Ok all monies are in, I'm just trying to download Andreis' maps before I place the order but it's proving rather difficult :( He has an oddball ECU and they need a factory image for base programming.

I think my serial>USB converter is playing up and dropping the connection periodically :(

Does anyone have a proper USB consult cable that we could borrow? (i.e. doesn't need an adapter)

All sorted Jim and it wasn't as simple as the ECU number, I had to download the whole image from Andreis' ECU as it is an odd model and they haven't done one before.. It is a series 2 with a Neo engine but not the tiptronic auto, 25GT-X or something like that :blink: I sent the image to NIStune and just heard back that it's doable.

Oh and it was my serial>USB adapter that was playig up :( chuckies worked fine!

    • So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?
    • 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?????
