Rebuilt the shifter assembly. Will have a one man circle jerk review of the noticeable difference tonight. keen to hear if it makes much difference - was thinking of doing mine but wondered if it would really be worth it Highly recommend it, I did it on TROLOL and it made a world of difference.

Got my HAARTZ softtop installed yesterday, (what a massive pain that was)
and tinted my tail lights. Two things i've been avoiding for at least 6 months -_-

New Haartz soft top arrived today, will be installing it over the weekend and observe how it holds up. Looks and feels nice though :)

I don't remember if there are specifics on wheels on that thread but they should be 14x8-15 + 15mm adapter. Eventually I will get my A3As as wide if not wider :)

Front struts are a bastard, will throw in my old factory suspension sometime to find if I find it isn't a problem with the bushings to see if the knocking persists. Thanks!

Check suspension bushings if they look like they've been "squeezed" out. Check ARB (swaybar) endlinks (the bolts and their bushings). the swaybar endlinks appear to be alright, other bushing have yet to be checked though, could be that. Put it on stands and try wiggle the wheels about (checking for...

Suspension Knock at slow speeds/turning

Hi all, So I've got a bit of a problem that no matter how much I drive it won't go away ( ;) ) My MX5 seems to have a small suspension knock on the passengers side (as far as I can tell). I noticed it after thrashing the car down some fairly rough roads and perhaps has gotten progressively worse ove...

Pairs are going to be my new addiction, those Equip 02s can be had for under 200nz shipped from Rod @_@, maybe less if you are willing to wait for Alex's next container!

Well I haven't compared the two for many items apart from a pair of Hayashis, 530 shipped from Alex and 480 from Rod if i remember correctly. Of course it could have been that the streets were local to Rod and not Alex or other reasons, then again you could be getting the better end of mates rates f...

Not gunna lie, when I compare prices using Rod from Tetsuya to Alex from Moonlight rod is definitely cheaper, surprisingly cheap to ship over stuff like headers and exhaust systems via airmail. Plus you don't have to wait for a container to fill up with Rod as I believe he sends everything on the fi...
