Work done so far:

Gaz gold pro suspension
Yellow stuff pads on front
Cambelt & waterpump
Clutch
Relocated rear fog
Removed spoiler
Removed style bar

Next on the list:
Full cage (Safety Devices or Caged)
New seat
Strip the interior (retaining dashboard but nothing else)
Crossmember and subframe refurb
Supercharger (maybe)
other stuff that I can't think of atm

Going to try and reroute the cooling system to see if I can solve the overheating probs on track.
 
Looks nice - I have one as my weekend car

I removed the AC rad, which helped keep the temperatures lower
It's worth checking that you have the undertray still there, as that does make a difference to guiding the air to the rad

Also, and I'm sure you've looked - replace the thermostat, when I took mine out I had loads of swarf in there, which was not allowing it to open fully
 
AC rad is gone. Undertray was on but still overheating and thermostat is working. Just flushed the system but still overheating so coolant reroute before I get a new rad.
 
Check that the gauge is showing properly... I tapped in a 2nd to see if the one on the dash was right. I think that when they replaced the clocks for mph ones they didn't put the temp needle (or fuel needle) back on correctly
 
Will have to check the gauge again but we know it is getting way too hot. Some coolant is disappearing after a longish run.

Brilliant!

My Dad's just bought a white Mk1 as a weekend toy.

I love them.

Great fun espcially with the roof down. Just got to ignore the comments from chavs in Clios. lol Great handling when you get used to it even though mine understeers like a barge at the moment.
 
My mum has one in white. Ohlins coilovers and its sat on its arse! Big wide alloys too. Looks the nuts!

I personally couldn't give a fig what people think, they are awesome to drive.
 
looks exactly like mine tbh.. bar the wheels! no plate on the front aswel :P

It's getting some team dynamics 1.3s. Your wheels should be easy to sell. I'm suprised no one bought your car yet.

oh so are you on nutz aswell? yeah me too thought it would go with it being nice weather had a few viewers though..
 
^ Because they can. Simply put.

Mk1 MX5s are awesome, but there's a list (like the silvervisions/lower/turinis thing on here).

That list is.

Lower drastically. (I put Tein Flex on mine and it transformed the handling, no more understeer)

Wider wheels (15x7 ET20) I haven't done this one yet, but RS Watanabe are a good shout. I'm looking at Work EMotion atm though.

Front and rear lip spoilers, go for around 80-100 each on ebay.
 
It has factory alingment atm. Will be getting it cornerweighted etc after the cage goes in.

Yep. Same username as on here. Your car look very nice and good vfm imo. Shame I don't need another one. lol

If it hasn't been done for a while then it won't even be factory. They do go out, mine was all over the shop when I had it done the first time.

The curse of double wishbone suspension!

Mine doesn't have a front plate and I've driven past a few police who didn't even seem to look at it. Unless they're taking pictures, giving me a week or so to sort it out and then lamp me with all of the fines:star:

The only plate that looks good on the front of a Mk1 is the offset square plate.
 
I meant it had alignment back to the factory setting just for now. Need to decide on a new colour for it soon. Too many choices. lol
 
1.6 then 1.8 post 93/94. There are 90bhp 1.6 post 94 for some markets though.
