Nick is going for a ride in Paul's car on Tuesday and will see the stroker engine is miles ahead in every way of the standard capacity engine

very lucky for Nick. However, stating that every other non-stroked 26 engine owners is shit is not cool bro.

And when your done you can post in this thread telling everyone how much better the stroker engine is compared to the piece of shit 2.6L

hence stating all 2,6 engines are shit.

I like my engine lol couldn't afford the stroker :(

Pads are ordered. PAGID RS19's, fronts only. These things better put my head through the window!!! Not farken cheap!

TBH Paulie I can't see anything being cheap with regards to your brake setup and suspension

Well, true. But $400 plus for a set of front pads. Taking the piss a bit!!!!

I agree with you mate. But those pads are designed for endurance and sprint racing so I'm not surprised that they cost so much.

PAGID RS19 are high quality performance pads. They will certainly do the job on track.

mate, as discussed - you'll also find they look after rotors nicely. Figure that into your cost calcs. If you put in a $200 pad that chews out rotors - what's the real cost then?

Also don't be surprised if they don't have quite the initial bite that you're used to. But, they'll be consistent right through the temp range. Trust me they are good.

    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
