SMB is more my thing I think, yours sounded rather amazing last night. Twin looks great, but having to cut my bumper, not so cool.

Its ok Regie, thanks anyway tho. Besides, if I got a new exhaust this quickly, Mike and Kev would think they could pressure me into buying anything haha

Wow, over a year has passed since my last update!

So what has changed? Not much! Ive just been enjoying the car as much as possible.

I did buy a supreme blue hard top, which I think looks good :)

And last weekend I upgraded my exhaust, I am now a proud owner of an SMB cat back system. Thanks again Regie! In my opinion, this exhaust suits the MX5 to a tee. It has a great note during WOT, but is quiet for highway cruising. It also compliments the SMB intake perfectly.

I took her on a nice drive down the south coast on Sunday, and whilst I was driving through the Kangeroo Valley I was rear ended by a dunnydoor driver :(

LUCKILY the damage wasnt too bad (and my new exhaust wasnt hurt), but it is still annoying all the same.


Once she is back on the road it'll be time for a good polish and wax, hopefully in time for the Iceburg run!


Pictures to follow, and maybe a write up of the 2011 Monaco GP, and the 2011 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Pain about being rear ended...

Excited for fresh pics and write up though!
