Yeah! me too, just curious about the RTA and how he got on with them?

Also club plates as one of my PNV's comes due next year, but not the one I want to put on them.

Cheers, D

Hi Dennis,

Long time since I've been on here...

Buggsy was my co-driver, and I still keep my MR30 Khanacross Hack and N15 Rally car at his place.

The car didn't sell on eBay (didn't reach the reserve) which is a shame...

He bought the car for his son to use in Khanacross and as a road car after driving mine in a Khanacross... didn't like the idea of his son punching a tree in his 240Z...

The car is on club plates, which means it only needs to pass a pink slip inspection from unregistered when he bought it... guessing he never updated the engine number... I guess it would probably be just over the 15% increase (depending on what the actual capacity of a 2.4 and 2.8 are)...

To get club plates, the owner must be a member of a CAMS car club, and the car must be more than 30 years old, and either reasonably standard/mods of the day, or modified in line with the Historic Racing category...

It means you can drive it to and from events in your car club calendar, and to your mechanics and such... no substitute for real rego if you want to use the car, but much cheaper... (I think less than $100)...

I would buy this car from him (made an offer) but he wants more than it is worth to me as a khanacross car... good if you wanted to just take it back to a nice road car, which doesn't interest me...

Cheers,

Daewoo

    • 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.
