Poll number two - just for fun, and to get an idea about what people would change on their cars... if they were handed a few "MX5 Bucks".

What would you spend $1500 on - if you were given it, and had to spend it on your MX5.
(And no, we're not giving away $1500 sorry!)

As usual, the Poll runs for two weeks. Feel free to post comments, and if the poll questions aren't exactly what you'd do, or you don't like the poll, please don't complain....

Feel free to suggest ideas for other polls in the suggestions forum too![/b]

dswholesalerz have some nice 18" dished rims I'd LOVE with near-new tyres also!

MMMmmm...

Remaining $400 would go towards some new 6x9"s and finishing the custom sub / amp / 6x9 mounts Smile

Thanks Stevo,

Contemplated the Rover V8, the Ford 302 and the GM LS1 but you can beat the
1UZ for value.

I agree, better sound like a V8.

Planning on keeping it auto for cruising!

Very Happy The 1UZ is also light compared to the ford and chevy so would be ideal. Cheers Stevo Very Happy
