Just a couple of quick pics as I have finally got it out from under my house
Car is curretly being tuned and will hit the track next weekend at Morgan Park along with about 17 other MX5's so should be a good showing.
I will post more pic when I have had a chance to finish it and wash it.

Yeeeeaaaahhhhhh Autobots!
Get some black bumpers for the track..... and some party lights... and you can pretend to be the new Jazz...
*geek hat off
Those wheels fill out the guard err... quite well... do you get any problems with rubbing guards?
Those mirrors are nice... what are they?

Hi
The sticker is a bit of a joke as I can't find the mazda badge.
I'm getting the guards rolled in a couple of days time so there should be no problems. Fingers crossed.
I have no idea what the mirrors are but I will be pulling them off as I can't see Sh$t out of them.

They look like runabout mirrors.
If you are taking those mirrors off, I'll happily take them off your hands at the right price?
BTW I love the look of your car, the black hardtop contrast well.

Umm, you're in a carpark with some horsepower and no-one about. You're supposed to 'sign' the concrete.

It has taken longer than I wanted to get the car completed but the end is close.
I would have loved to sign my name in the car park however the car only has a startup tune in it at this point and was not running as it should.
I'm running a 5 speed as I'm not keen on rebuilding the more expensive 6 speeds when the blow.
Pick up the car tonight so I can take it for a test drive around my local test track (Griffith Uni) tonight.

Is that the NB8B/C front bumper you've got on or is it an aftermarket one?

Lookin good Neil. Wheels seem to be a little out of scale though.
Can you please make sure you install a temporary passenger seat for the Prod Sport track day in December

That's a good idea, tell the cops where you are going to be.

Tones of power
+ No Brakes
+ Horrible understeer
= A handfull around Morgan Park but alot of fun
I will have it sorted for the next top gear in November and it will be 100% times better.
The car will be at the ProdSports Track day and it will have a passenger seat so I will happily take people for a run.
