Hi mate, unbelievably clean car, looks very nice. Can I ask, What made you go with the Albins? I’ll be pulling the trigger on a new box towards the end of the year if all goes well. Can PM me if you like.

What dash are you going? 

Probably just the Haltech IQ3 as I'm going Haltech.

Its not a priority though - I love your colour dash - absolutely awesome!

may aswell get the IC7 for like $100 more. its much more current tech - the iQ3 is a pretty old dash now.

You don’t have to go the 12’ dash. Most go for the smaller one as it’s actually a better fit and can still do some pretty cool things. You can also buy cluster inserts so it will replace your factory cluster and it works with any ecu. Haltec, link etc

The IC7 looks like crap.  I prefer the IQ3 to the IC7.

There are a few companies that do the cluster inserts, Mako motorsports, Hypertune. The bottom pic is my mates R32 GTR. He is running the motec dash with an Emtron ecu

And the c127 has built in shift lights, but as with anything motec, if you want a custom set up like the first photos you need to buy the software which can get expensive. But worth it in my opinion

maybe....  I am going to look more into the colour dash options now that Moray has shown us his dash!

Suspension question.

My new wheels will require some small camber at the front.  I want to get a some upper and lower arms - front and rear maybe.

I'm after something high quality - can anyone suggest product / shop?

Thanks in advance.

Guys 

Would love to hear your opinions - and some suggestions.

GTR problems ;)  

I am going to put a motec c127 or haltec ic7 display in - on some sort dash mount (currently looking for options - if you know of any I would appreciate your suggestions).  As my gear selection,  exh temp, etc will all be visible on the new dash - I have removed my additional gauges.  

The Nismo White face dash cluster - plan store it away so I can always put back down the track.   

In doing so - do I remove the Nismo White face 3 gauge cluster in the center console?  Put a double din digital media player/sat nav / etc in console - or would it be sacrilege to remove the centre 3 gauges?  Like when I see a R34 GTR missing the MFD - just doesn't look quite right.  I'm thinking it needs to stay.....

I appreciate the insignificance of my dilema to most - but only a GTR owner would understand ? ?

I think leaving the Nismo 3 gauges in will keep everything looking nice & OEM "plus". I personally wouldn't remove them for a fancy headunit. Plus, who needs a tricked out audio deck when you have the RB note to enjoy? 

Also, last thing you need is some deadbeat breaking into the car to cash in a headunit.

    • 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.
