Where do you live circus monkey? Just last week i had my PC repaired in Akihabar at the Toshiba Centre.. It was still under warranty so it was free, but they speak English there. Maybe you could pick up one from there.. Or you could just buy a cheapo radio or something with one of those Universal plugs and use that? Or just go to a travel shop or duty free and find some adaptors?

With my Dell, the equivalent Japanese power cord did had the ground socket at the adapter end, but only a 2 pin power plug end, effectively the ground went nowhere.

For other people who have come over we have just chopped off the 3 pin Australian plug and replaced the a 2 pin Japanese plug from an Australian electronics store. Works fine.

      Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.

      Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true

      Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
