For the last 6 years I have owned a slightly dodgy looking boyracer type car that has a few uncertified mods. Most of the time I drove it normally, some of the time I drove it like a fucking idiot. I barely ever got pulled over or hassled by the cops, the few times I did was when I was doing somethi...

Hori Dori aye? Do you know Thomas or Todd?

I went with 195/50/15.

Did my suspension and wheels yesterday. KYB shocks, King spring lows, 15x6.5 wheels with Michelin PS3 tyres. Feels like a totally different car. Didn't go as low as I thought it would but it has settled a bit more now.

Put me down for one please, as long as they aren't mega expensive!

Just got my new springs and shocks Now I'm just waiting on the wheels and tyres...

So how/where does this thing mount?

Pretty decent price for a set of 15's really.

I considered biding on those wheels, how much did they go for?

So what's the simple green and tyre foam technique?

Think ill just stay home & play X-Box

You should get a little trailer for your bike and tow it around with your mx5! That way people will know that you go both ways!

Chassis rails are just fine, there appears to be plenty of rust in there to hold them together.

If you read what I said properly, Nothing negative, just a little factual FYI. Sure, I said it stinks, How many fwd rally boxes have you pulled apart? All I said, was that its sticky, and you'll need to check fluids again after a run up. What I said isn't rocket science. If you read the other repli...

Now that I can post pictures, here's mine that I picked up last week. Nz new, 220,000k's and completely standard.

Interesting. I've only ever heard praise for redline gear oils. On top of that there are multiple sites across the internet that recommend the redline gear oils for a mx5. Surely such a well established brand wouldn't be producing a sub standard product?

Box of cambelt parts from Broomfish, now I'm just waiting on my redline gearbox and diff oils

Not so much something arriving, but last week I got my first mx5 :D Nz new, completely stock and with 220,000k's on the clock... Only issues so far are a rip in the roof, occasional smoke on start up and a small swimming pool appeared in the drivers foot well after yesterdays torrential rain :( I wa...
