my '32 arrives next week and my main issue with licencing is the full roll cage which it will have in it, id like to keep it for structural reasons and for my own safety :):D

this is mainly directed at everyone in Perth as the licencing over here is/could be quite different to that of the other states.

A friend of mine went over the pits the other day with his '33 and the guy said you can get a permit for it but it will have to be licenced as a 2 seater, for obvious reasons as the bar goes across the rear seats etc.

anyone have any information??

thanks in advance.

Shaun

true, hence the need for padding.

although whacking your head into a bar with inch thick padding aint going to do squat to cushin the blow.

exactly.. unless u drive around with a helmet id take it out.. it looks cool but if u ever smashed i doubt u would enjoy the crushed skull ud most prob have

Many years ago, I had a 180B SSS, which ended up with a roll cage. I found out 6 months after 'renewing' the insurance (thru a broker) that it wasn't insured because no-one would insure it with the roll cage. Something else to consider.

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
