Well here is my Aus delivered 1990 MX5. Bought it stock as they come, other than king springs. car was second owner and couldnt be happy. After owning a S13 and a Soarer i wanted something different from the rest, wouldnt cost much to run, light and NA. An AE86 popped into my head, but again a bit to old, a bit too much hassle and id already had to 4AGE's in corollas.

As i bought it 2 months ago

And since then i have added
15x6.5 +19 Volks with 195/50 RE001's
slotted and dimpled rotors
Whiteline 22mm front swaybar
Whiteline 16mm Rear swaybar
G4 Coilovers 8/6kg
Made 68.5rwkw at Morpowa Dyno here in SA

future mods
oil cooler and relocation kit
intake, exhaust blah blah
strut brace
Brown davis roll bar
Fit my DFA
roll the guards and drop it some more
hopefully a torsen LSD

all comments appreciated, thanks

They came up really well! Your coilovers don't appear to be set at the correct position though :lol:

Because pass the parcel was your favourite party game as a kid?

physco88au · Postby **physco88au** » Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:22 am

and the parcel ended up with me and im keeping them. They 'could' use a bit more width, but beggers cant be choosers

Another half inch on them would have been good, but they do sit in quite a nice spot, and its not like you'd run more than a 195 even if they were wider anyway, it'd just make them look a little better with a tiny amount of stretch.

What do you think of those Yokos so far?

physco88au · Postby **physco88au** » Thu Nov 06, 2008 8:36 pm

to be honest there isnt much of them left, got RE001s on the front and will have some one the rear in a few weeks. At the moment im trying to find some more parts for it so ill keep you updated

What parts are you after?

physco88au · Postby **physco88au** » Fri Nov 07, 2008 9:05 pm

at the moment im trying to find a full exhuast (prefer second hand), Ive lined up a Velo GP90 (going to suss out monday), and anything else that pops up really

If I wasnt going turbo (which wont suit my original exhaust) I'd almost offer to sell mine, I'm getting sick of exhaust noise and miss having a stock exhaust with pod induction roar.

I've found a few MX5 bits at Zed Imports and ummm... importer just across from Scotty's motel on Main North at... Nailsworth?

Might also be worth going for a walk through the Mazda section at City Dismantlers, I've found a few cool things in there before
