Spun a rod in the engine. Lack of oil and possibly oil surge.

Nexus is a good install but quite a lot of work. It's been around 6 months and I've only just managed to make it work perfectly

It's been a good while since i last updated.

Nothing major other than painting the wheels Blue.

From far it's a dark blue but with some good light they are a thing of beauty.

Other than that, recently did a Circuit Club event which was very well run. Managed to clock a 1:13:2 which is a little improvement over my previous PB. The car is running well. All the issues with my diff are all gone and the car handles well.

Sways maybe next?

Loving those shots, particularly the second one.

I miss those Circuit Club and MX5 Club trackdays.

All that extra torque you have now would stand you in good steed at Wakefield, particularly up the hill and out of the fish hook!

Thanks Mat,

Great catching up with you @ the 25th Anniversary.

Still haven't quite unlocked the full potential of this yet. I got a 1:13:19 with the 2.5L. Only .4 quicker than me in the 2.0L... Need more seat time and i'll pull it under the 13's easily :)
