Hi guys,

On recommendation from another member i thought id come say hi.

Another member from the UK here - some good lookin cars on this site as well!

Here are some shots of my car as is now - turbo kit is coming off in a couple of days as im going down the NA tuning route.

Already got myself a nice 4-1 header and am hopefully about to pick up a set of mikuni twin choke carbs too


Exterior so far:

Where's that other intercooler pipe coming? I see you went over the radiator for the one coming off the turbo...

Hi sausages nice car, does that mean your turbo kit is for sale soon 8)

Turbo kit is sold....

It was a DIY conversion that utilised bits from a scrap yard just to prove it could be done!

The pipe returning from the intercooler is the blue one going into the inlet manifold... its a side mount

The kit was a custom T2 with uprated internals and a 360degree thrust bearing, 200sx S13 intercooler, HKS SSQV dump valve, LC1 wideband O2, weber 2.5bar map sensor, 320cc injectors, duel feed fuel rail, greddy emanage blue.

Before the emanage and injectors went in, it was dyno'd at 169wbhp.

sorry if I confused you or may have offended

its just the 'fake' carbon looks very rippled and amateur-ish!

good attempt though! =D>

Shopping list graphics and stripey zig zags are so yesterday :roll: We like the clean look here..... though classic stripes are still good

I still think this Roadster is deeply impressive, for its sheer clean simplicity:

Cool photos help as well.

Tabs for your information its REAL carbon fibre - its not formed, its sandwiched in between a clear layer of PVC and a black backing.

If you dont have anything positive to say - then dont bother.

 

[Tabs604]

if you post on a forum you have to be prepared to take some criticism!

 

[wildrnes]

asda butter dish fuse box covers
'licky lucky intercoolers'

Well, you didn't come over very friendly back there. Maybe it was unintentional, but its fair to say, if you don't like another member's work, keep schtum, and we'll all get along better.

Constructive criticism is fair enough, if you had followed it up with a tip how you might improve (in your eyes) things.

Anyhow, as the mods will no doubt state, this forum is all about JDM Roadsters, not general MX5 and Miata chat, for which there are other forums.
