Play DAYS are $135 and the Playday twilight evenings are $75.00.

The evenings are great fun and am looking to do some over the next few months. Racing around on track in the dark is a WHOLE new experiance and somewhat difficult but the lighter evenings of summer should be good..

Kasey and I just finished putting in 24mm front and 16 mm rear sway bars in Wee1 (thanks Kasey :D ). WOW, what a difference. the turn in is much quicker and the car feels considerably more precise in cornering. Turn 5 at Hamptons should be a lot easier to get in to and carry speed through now!! I do...

A quick update for reference sake. I made a pair of boxes for a set of 6x9's on the parcel tray (I wanted them removable for track days and racing). I'm about to solder in some headphone extension leads (male to female) cut the wire in half and have one end on the stereo side and one end on the spea...

You might be surprised at the price from Mazda for the OEM part...if it's still available....

I mean it won't be a few cents but even at $15.00 for the set it beats wrecking it with the wrong screws....

Just a thought.

Why dont some of you "ladies" come down to Hampton Downs on Wednesday the 6th for a cruise...

Donovan and I will be there trying to outdo each others times and usually at least 3-4 other MX5's there fanging around......not to mention plenty of other cool cars.

I have driven.

NA bilsteins
NB Bilsteins
Koni Race
HSD

My vote is HSD with the Koni a close 2nd. Having softened the Konis I find them a lot better on the road...

The HSD was AMAZING on the road and I found no issues with them on the track...where they performed way better than I expected.

The design of the seat and the rails is very good. The bottom of the seat sits lower than than mounting point of the rails. Removing the rails wont help. My race seats also sit higher than the OEM seats because the base (bum part) is level with the mounts not lower like the OEM setup.... Installing ...

Why not heat wrap the exhaust in that segment? As per another thread here (i think)...My experience with a heat wrapped down pipe was that the metal started to go brittle and turn in to flakes and research proved this to be quite common. Do you think further back, end of the down pipe to mid car wo...

Hi Guys, as I slowly get my car sorted I am getting to the stage of trying to make it more comfortable to daily drive after throwing all the ex race gear in it. One of the issues is serious heat radiation throught the sides of the gearbox tunnel, especially on the passenger/ exhaust side. I have bee...

Im going to meet but not drive. Car is "a work in progress"... as far as LTSA is concerned...

Right one more convert...

Now someone take Furai for a drive for gods sake!!!

this still on you guys?

Kasey, HARDEN UP MAN!!!

What the hell does "nohomo" mean?

Well I know WHAT it means but in that context...?

http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=551260006

surpised these have been listed so often and no takers...furai..?

Actually all that I say above is pending how 2low2c gets on with his NA race car.....if anyone can get them going he will.

I watch his progress and eventual racing with interest!

Sorry for the indepth blabbing, I find this is helping me clarify my decisions as well. I was very much in your shoes about 18 months ago....engine wise at least... The problem with different, is that it invariably costs way more or is a path that others have inevitably tried unsuccesfully before. N...

I would also add, driving Donovans car is a real joy as well. I haven't driven it in anger but a lovely road car it definitley is.

No real chassis issues that I could tell....

Furai, what I see here is a lack of experience....not driving experience but having a go in a turbo'd car experience. That vid you posted. ANY car would have problems in those conditions with whatever tyres he had. I sincerely believe you have built up the NA v Boosted thing in your head to be a big...

OH for that budget!

What you are saying is quite correct, the reason Im quite fixed on NA is more the Balance and response. I am forever seeing videos of NA cars with less power than a Turbo version going just as if not more quickly. This intrigues me. I have also seen this phenomena :shock: But I wonder if the guys t...

I looked in to these as well. The examples of flaking downpipe metal and failed turbos put me off in a hurry. Ended up using Flyin Miata louvers instead. These made a MASSIVE difference to underhood temps especially around the intake area. I know cause I checked before and after with a indoor / outd...

BUT, Furai IS a good driver. He obviousley underates himself. Coming from the motorcycle world there is/was a huge debate on 2 stroke versus 4 stroke. light versus heavy, revs/power v torque/power. I was a huge 2 stroke proponant in road racing (250 production) and since switching to Motocross have ...

Fantastic job Keith!

I Look forward to coming to see you out at the track!

Sweet!

Looks like fun.

Was just reading trademe for wheels and one supplier says it is the Falken ZE or something....
