Adding A/C to a NZ New NA

Has anyone had experience in putting air conditioning into a NZ new car? ...

I really just want a stock black one, or there was a billet aluminium one linked on this thread earlier that I quite liked. I'm in no great hurry to spend money on this car, which has since been named Eddie, since the plate begins with EDY. I did a service yesterday which was a nightmare. Some goril...

I am after a few bits and pieces if anyone can assist. I need a gear knob, 2x window regulators and a glove box. I will put up a WTB ad for these bits too.

Its been nice driving a VLSD equipped Mx5 in the rain. Much looser in the rear end than my old open-diffed one

All of the oils quoted above, while excellent in their own right, are totally unnecessary for an early 90s 1.8 4pot. New engines require this kind of viscosity, a 20 year old engine does not. Now if you were running forced induction, a high powered naturally aspirated engine, or running in extreme t...

I have a very special exhaust on the Mazdarati. It is completely factory, with the optional heat shields that trap stones and rattle really loudly on acceleration. And deceleration. And idle. Also it hits my rear brace, making a fun "clunk" every time you get off the gas..... However, once I get int...

Autostop cash account open!

Afternoon all.
You can now get a trade price at any Autostop branch in Auckland.
The account number is K149. The more it gets used, the better discount we can get.
So forget paying retail for bits for your mx5. Come to Autostop. We will look after you.
Zac.
