Just a quick shout out to everyone, new to the club and have made my way to the mx5 via S2 Rx7, starlet GT turbo, and mazda SP20. Each had its strengths and weaknesses though the Rx7 was probably the most fun overall :)

A couple of pics of my car taken today on Mt. Glorious, though I won't include a pic of the yellow piece of paper that the nice men in blue gave to me at the start of the drive :(

Plans for the car are a proper wheel alignment, full exhaust, butterfly brace, and possibly ECU. It may not end there though ;)

Welcome to the obsession

I like your choice of model

Alignment and tyres are a good start.

Nice choice, the green suits the 8B quite well.

the car looks pretty much unmodified so why the canary? (unless NSW use yellow tags for other things?)

QLD mate. Not a canary mate, the other type of notice that you can get when driving a fun car ;)
