maybe get some steelies widened??

tried asking on mx5 facebook page? every second post is about 15x8's and theres also a japanese wheels for sale page on FB too.

the guys in the states use the 11" VW 89-91 Corrado rotors but they are getting hard to find now

it would be cool if you could get adaptor brackets to bolt up common 4 pot alloy calipers from a road car on to the mx....just saying....

LOL.

that doesnt look bad at all. windscreen is intact. Sill looks untouched. so unless theres serious unseen damage to the A pillar low down , it looks like a door and gaurd.

if it does get written off , its gonna make an awesome base for a race car.

i can imagine the sales guy when go to buy a drum of xylene or ethanol.... "sure do you want some Pseudo to go with it"

949 racing do some good stuff..

this wilwwod valve comes with the pipe adaptors to fit the mx5 hard lines..

if you are going to change pads, get some new rotors too. standard rotors are fine. some pads dont like old pad material on the disc so you dont get the best out of them. (carbotech are one such example) a brake bias valve should be the first mod if it doesnt have one already...mx5's have too much f...

Also returned my Fusiom head deck to Hyper. I have had some issues with it so swapped it over for a better unit from Sony. Now i can also play my CD collection as well as having 'MODERN' input options.

what is a CD???

That are self tuning... you simply load the base setup then set the afr targets into the map. there plenty of reasonable spark maps on the forums. tuning a ms is no harder than any other ecu

What's a carburetor?

Keep it where it is. the spray cools the charge air in part due to the pressure drop at the tip. having it further away from the cylinder just heats it up and increases chance of pooling

there arent many "bargains" and there isnt that many around...budget $900-1300 for a hardtop depending on condition and fittings (frankenstien bolts are $100 a pair)

There been plenty of talk on this lately . before going to bigger rotors get some decent pads, cooling ducts. brake bias valve and master cylinder brace.

that wheel looks a little old to be 2006?

the NC suspension is the most criticised among enthusiasts for its ride height especially. while good in standard trim, the car can be transformed in both ride comfort and performance by nice set of ohlins for example.

maybe renualt
the French writing leads me to think Renault 5
renault won lemans in 1978 so maybe some limietd edition renault 5 turbo???

get the 2 liter model which has a better spec. also make sure you replace the radiator water overflow bottle asap as they have a tendency to crack and you lose the pressure out of the cooling system and then overheat the engine. the '05-'06 models will be coming up for a soft top replacement very so...

theres plenty of good pads out there like carbotech xp10....axxis/trw ultimate.... just depends on what your budget is and how much track time your actually gonna give it.

ok maybe just a bit bling for you....semi gloss black.

I have plans to make a batch of braces. they won't be bling but they ll work

the guys in the states swear by the stoptech street performance pads from rock auto. they are pretty much the best bang for buck street /track pad and they are cheap as. i have a set sitting on my bench ready to go in my car when i get my act together. http://www.mx5forum.co.nz/viewtopic.php?t=11130...

heres a video of the styling...
