Sweet. Added that to my ever growing 'Shit to do.txt' sitting on my desktop . I saw the photo you put on the Facebook group too. It looks real nice.

Is your washer bottle a custom job or did you buy it from somewhere? I bet hiding it under a wiper cowl makes the engine bay much more aesthetically pleasing..something I'm slowly getting round to.

Thanks to bwarp for the spec sheet a while back.

I have a Eunos factory wheel that needs to go!

With boss kit? I have a friend who is looking for one but I think he needs the boss kit too.

Are you going to cut them at an angle like the 240z's?

^Like that. cbf finding a pic so I drew them haha

Either way it'll look cool

Looking good man. With a slightly lower ride height, it will sit nicely IMO.

And I'm glad those stick on side vents you had on there a while ago are gone

Awesome. Cheers for the help sprsta and chris

Where is the best/cheapest place to get some offset bushings if I need them?

Ok so I just measured again and its more like 60-70mm at the frame rails :?. The 100mm was my assumption that the pinch weld and the frame rails were about the same height. They are not. The subcard is for scale against the smooth floor as you can't tell shit from the pictures without it. http://i.i...

I'm just hoping that the guy is reasonable and will allow me to explain things. I don't want to deal with someone who is stubborn or tries to push his weight because he's the 'older' and 'wiser' one.

So I'm planning to go in for a cert for the new wheels and coilovers. The wheels are 15x8 with 195/45 tires streched on which are legal according to the manufacture's spec sheet, and the car currently sits at roughly 100mm (give or take maybe 10mm) from its lowest structural point. What sort of docu...

Yeah man, its super easy to use. I didn't have to perfectly mask around the handle or anything. I just sprayed to cover the door handle completely, let it dry, then sliced around the handle lightly with a knife and peeled away the surrounding excess. Same thing for the keyhole.

Ha!, speaking of Plasti Dip.. I just did one of my door handles this afternoon as a trial/practice. I used 3 coats of black, and one coat of the Glossifier. I'll probably re-do it with only two coats of black, but two coats of gloss tomorrow. http://i.imgur.com/w1Uqydzl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/CGREtj...

I've never seen the 'mouth' painted black like that before. Looks good

A can of VHT Niteshades is all you'll need.

Very nice. Have you thought about tinting the tail lights also? It would go well with the red/black theme you currently have.

Do a quick check of the intake system. Listen for any leaks, and give it a bit of a wiggle. It probably won't be the cause, as the car would want to die if it was an intake leak..but I had trouble with mine one day out of the blue so you never know. A bit of percussive maintenance should do the trick.

Where'd you pick those up?

So thats what that squeal was... I had it when downshifting every now and again. I haven't heard the noise for months now though, so I'm not sure if I should be worried or happy. Uh oh haha. If it comes up again I suggest checking. Cole suggested I look into it. It has been.gerting worse over time,...

Changed the engine oil today, first time I've ever done it by myself. Was pretty straightforward but still feeling proud! :D Heres a protip for you if you ever change the gearbox oil: The fill plug is tapered, thats why it wont screw in all the way. Found that out after an impressive amount of swea...

I'd love to see footage of your MX-5 giving it the jandal past a ~$650,000 Lambo haha

Good call on the ITBs. You can do them first and figure out all the little problems, then I can ask you everything

Hahaha holy shit that was close.

Finally got around to installing my coilovers. Sitting a wee bit higher than I want them so I'll drop them a tiny bit before I get an alignment/cert.
