Hey everyone, my name's Dylan an this is my mx5.
I've had it since December, and I've wanted one since I beat need for speed underground in one when I was 13. I took this for a test drive and I fell in love.
My friends told me it was a hairdressers car, but I laugh when I actually started cutting their hair when I bought it.
It's got a few little upgrades like an ARC intake, I'll post a list later. Anyway, looking forward to enjoying your forum :-)

You'll have to bring it down to garage cafe on Thursday nights and meet some other mx5 drivers! Looks nice and clean

Ahhh I've heard of that, my friend Brett with his wagon R was trying to convince me to go with him last week but I went for a drive in the hills instead...

So anyway, the car has spent a fair bit of time on the jack stands since I bought it. Trying out new oils I'd never have spent the $ on with my commodore, pulling oit the broken air conditioner, fixing exhaust leaks and that.


I bought this with the intention of learning how to work on cars.
The first night I got it, I had to drop the steering column in order to pull out my broken pedal box and weld it back together. :-/
Luckily I have mates who are mechanics eh?


I just love the thing though. I've put a mazdaspeed roll bar on there I bought from that Ruprecht guy in ringwood, he was so cool!



Also my dash lights stopped working so I punched the dash cover and smashed it apart, so I ended up holding it together with stickers.


when the sun caught it though, the reflection made it impossible to see, so I covered it with black felt.

dylan, you might want to re-size your pictures.. just saying

i told brett to come along to garage cafe last week, see you dudes there sometime soon!

I can honestly say I have no idea how.
This forum is very different to fixed.org.au, where I spend loads of time talking about bicycles, tattoos and getting drunk.
That place just automatically resizes, so does Tumblr, I don't know anything about these serious forums! Haha

Interesting car and points for doing your own thing.

Yes, MX5cartalk is a serious place.

Never has any crazy stuff like arguin the definition of sports car etc.



Anyway, welcome, I'm Nik, the guy with the blue NB from the photos the other week.
