I bought myself another car :P

Couldn't resist, when the owner was 70+ year old and owned it from new ... and it had been garaged for the last 2 years as he is now deceased. Apart from some rust on the roof, the car is mint and all original. This is a genuine "owned since new by and old man" car, with very low kms for its age :D Pure fluke I got it.

Bought it cheap as it wasn't running. Just had way too much crap in the carby from sitting around for years. I've rebuilt the carby and I'm about to head out to refit it and start her up. I'll take pics and reveal what it is that I've bought. :P

So, any of you clowns that might be out and about on a thursday night, keep an eye out for me around the outer harbour / port adelaide / semaphore area (on main roads of course)

no, i wont be flashing my goods for a few bucks, i'll be working hard (or in this case making the apprentice work hard) fixing dead street light globes :laugh:

      You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap

      Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy

      Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.

      Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷

      I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
