Kula's NA6
so here's my NA6
aussie spec, 1989 model, I think its the 247th MX-5 built for export:)
bought dead standard about 2 years ago now,
with 290000kms on it.. (just run in)
some of the mods:
re-coed calipers
with NA8 discs, brackets and the amazing castrol SRF brake fluid
Now its running Hawk HP+ pads front and rear, and has Goodridge braided brake lines all round.
here it is impersonating a star wars land speeder:
some of the lightening mods I've done are:
removal of air con
removal of tow hooks
removal of carpet
removal of sound deadening/insulation
removal of soft top:
craft square mirrors:
stripped interior, painted with fridge paint:
Sparco sprint bucket seat:
momo prototipo wheel:
Superpro bushes (all of them):
Chargespeed carbon fibre bonnet:
Mazda clear repeater indicators and reflectors:
Heres under the hood, very standard for now:
I have magnacore leads and a JDM ECU, not sure how much if any power its added... but on the dyno it made 66rwkW.
I've tried to take out as much weight as possible, but I've added a fair bit in:
Cusco side braces:
Cusco rear underbody brace:
also have Cusco front under body and front strut top with integrated brake master cylinder brace.
flyin miata underbody chassis brace:
Brown Davis roll bar:
Work meister wheels 15x8:
It was running Kumho Ecsta rubber, but now has the awesome
Bridgestone Potenza RE-001 Adrenalin:
With RAYS Duralium lightweight locknuts.
Also recently fitted an NA8 upgraded rear end with a Kaaz LSD.
so I think soon it will be time for some more power...
so a HKS turbo kit has landed, just piecing together some bits like an intercooler and ECU, but its almost together ;)
having some fun:
