It's been in fast car IIRC, looked quite good. He's turboing it next and changing the colour of the wheels as far as I know.

The wheels are far too big, and the engine looks a bit naff IMO.

They look ideal! Need it as low as possible really - I cant quite get comfy in this MX5 for some reason...

It's getting there slowly but surely... You're not having it though - I'm only just getting started! :rasp: Took it back to my parents new house today - some awesome roads round there! Even with s**te tyres on, it takes quite a bit of provoking in the form of a good clutch kick to get the back...

The black wheels make it look hard as f**k!! It's really making me consider not eating for the remainder of this month to get the HSDs. FFS.

Liquid Yellow and Silver is perfect!

Re: My Budget Track Project. (GTI-6 Ph1) in reply to your text Gaz, this is the seat I bought...

You'd be surprised! It's not so much the top of the tyre that rubs on the arch liners, its the inside that you can't see. Anyway, just take a wheel off and have a look - it'll be quite clear where its been rubbing!

I imagine they just leave the arches because there's no need for them to be rolled - standard wheels are so narrow there's no way they'd ever come close to the arches. RS Clios come with ready rolled rear arches, the fronts still have the arch lips though. Best thing to do is just to lower it...

Yeah, you can't roll the fronts because they're plastic. I just chopped/sanded the lip off - then cut some of the bumper/wing bracket off as that got in the way. I had 25mm spacers on at the time, so you should probably be fine tbh. I had 16" old style SuperTurismo's at one point (in the...

Fair one. I rolled my arches with a hammer (and cut a s**t load out of the rear bumper) and it sat like this on 16's: No longer Rubs. by j0eyD, on Flickr I'd just get some smaller wheels and spray the whole wheel green - coloured lips generally don't look that great IMO. I think that's maybe...

I've had lower than that and mine was hardly what I'd call 'low' these days... Night Time 3 by j0eyD, on Flickr I think you should try the "less is more" approach. Seems to work well on Clios.

Awesome pictures Ed despite it being proper dark! Love how everyone has cropped my MX5 out in the photo's :o It's not thaaat bad...

It's mental isn't it - the arches which have completely misshapen are probably the worst... I've not looked under the sill plates in the door shuts yet, but I'm expecting proper holes! Meh, keep it for a year, save up for a nicer one, transfer the nice parts I buy. Sorted! 175/50/14 small...

This could fit in a Trophy's arch gap, and I still could pitch up a tent with room to spare. True story; I'll show you at CSS. Still not cleaned it BTW ;) Just to piss goodj off: MX5 low by j0eyD, on Flickr Soooo close to looking half decent! I don't need a car set up for B-road blasting...

It's still high :( Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr 1 wheel left to spray... it's replacing the one I can't get off, so I'm not in any hurry anymore! Got some new nuts to replace the s**t ones, just need to take...

There are 2 Joes, and you missed a Matt off! :rasp: 1. Jon - camping 2. Scott - driving there and back 3. Ash - driving there and back 4. Rob - Running there and back 5. Joe - driving there and back 6. JoeyD - driving there & back 7. Matt - driving there and back 8. Dan - hotel the night before...

I'd love to camp, but it looks like I'm not going to be able to get the time off work :( It also means I'll be arriving Very close to the 8.45am set off time; but I should be able to make it on time! 1. Jon - camping 2. Scott - driving there and back 3. Ash - driving there and back 4. Rob -...

1. Fastdanbar (hotel) 2. Matthew R (Drive on the day) 3. Knuckles (most likely drive on the day) 4. Liamm (I dont know whether to drive down on the day or come Friday) 5. XxHarDinGxX (might stay in a hotel then dan, should be a laugh) 6. Naith 7. Aucky (Probably 4am it) 8. Chris (Drive on the...

Maybe. Not sure I need to be even more depressed about how crap my MX5 currently is though! 1.Laura - Golf 2.Christopher 3.tw*tti - MX5 4.Ste 5.Ian - S3 6.Bloor - Clio 172 7.Fran - MX5 8.Conrad - Fiesta 9.Nicola - Fiesta 10.Craig - RX7 11.Alex - 300zx 12.Alex - MX5 13.Ant - E36 14.Craig - Mk3...

Have a look at ch!ppens old 172. Perfect. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?636302-My-Sold-Flamer Can't remember spacer sizes, something like 25mm on the front and 15mm on the back?

Amazing photos! Just outlines how unbelievably clean/well kept it is.

Bit better aren't they! :D Hahaha, not having a repeat of last time! Bloody silly Japs and their silly cars.

I think I made a good choice with this wheel colour. Just need to get that front f**king wheel off now! Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Bronze by j0eyD, on Flickr Just need to do the other three now... :coffee:

Corrrr, that sits nicely! Maybe some small spacers for the front? The back is just perfect though.

+1 on this. My old white one came with a windblocker (basically a flimsy bar with some netting) and I was amazed at how effective it was! It did look s**t though.

Hmmm, might have to look into that then! Fingers crossed. Going to just buy them outright now I reckon - won't be tied to them if it gets pinched again or anything... Yeah - think they're exactly the same in that respect. Separate height, damper and preload adjustment - just softer springs...

Ahhhh! :o Wondered how you knew! Not sure yet, nothing really decent on is there... Just boggo MX5 ones. Nuts are nuts, this is a shed - as long as I can get them off and tighten them back up again, I'm not arsed!

I always thought the best way to go about it was to get bolt on ones? Longer studs make me think it would be a weaker set up? They're not exactly cheap at £150! I suppose when you think about it that way it kind of makes sense. Weird one! Not sure how much of a pain it would be to get out...
