It's not reading AFR on the front lambda sensor, some signs point to ECU but obviously its been tampered with. Not totally sure whether i'l get it through with Mazda but I don't have the motivation to even try at the moment.

Even though Im hating on the car currently, I thought id cheer myself up by installing a new steering wheel. Flash shows the carbon up

Joes Review Is pretty much bang on, the engine feels a bit too smooth for a tepid car. The benefit is it's just so much more flexible then other MX5s You can Help me torch it if you want! No spacers here anymore just beefcake wheels. Once this thing is fixed its going on a trackday, its...

Despite wanting to set my car on fire at the moment (see o2 sensor thread) My friend managed to snap some pictures of my cars current state Im a bit fed up with this car atm, half tempted to set it on fire... however joey took some recent pictures so may as well update this. 4 by Joey D, on...

So today was an update Ive been looking forward to. Having the car aligned at Rodders to make the most of the suspension. Il throw a few random pictures in to break up the text, but being honest they're in no particular order. I got to Rodders at 10.30 ish after some pretty terrible...

This thing is a total gem!! shame I disliked mine but yours is really really lovely!

Bloody hell! Didn't expect such a warm response. Thanks for all the positive words! Regarding the mazdaspeed kit, it's just so fugly and naff :(

So yesterday I fitted my coilovers and spacers. Spent ages fiddling with heights and then took the cars for a quick drive. The alignment is so far out now that the car feels really nervous so will be checking in at rodders when I get back from Iceland. Also ordered a GV lip for the car from...

I find the Primacys terrible unless driving sensibly, proper tyres transform the car.

Just a few pictures after a wash the other day, i will say im not totally happy with the ride height, its still wayyyy too high.

Not sure tbh, everything looked straight and true on the surface but it left and underlying feeling that probably contributed massively to its demise.

More then I thought they would, its when you remember it was an 8 year old Black Honda still pretty though :(

I paid top dollar with the intention of getting the best I could, I wish I got a red one, hated the black. I got most of what I paid back but not all of it, I think had it been summer when I decided to sell it may have been easier but I wasn't fussed. I know you love yours and there are things i...

Tell me about it!! the day was full of total c***s anyway but the saxos were the ones that stood out! the green one was doing "burnouts" on the sighting laps and weaving around ... because race c**t :grin: thanks haha I didn't get on with it one bit! too much hype killed it for me. Thanks...

Its a shame theres no video from later in the day because I really started to feel at ease with the car, never mind, theres always february

So similar!! Did a trackday too!! forgot about that So. My first MK4 track day. This was only my 3rd trackday.. ever, and my First in the MK4. Needless to say I was quite nervous about taking a pretty much brand new car on track. then we pulled in and there was a brand new cayman GT4, boxster...

exhaust video :grimacing:

As Jesus said, it doesn't look 14 years old, Working in the trade im in I dont get plate envy. A plates a plate. I couldn't bring myself to try one. The 2 litre isn't fast but that must be really slow. yeah N/A matey Sure you know where I am most days. Yeah I must say seating position isn't...

Thanks! yeah I see no point beating around the bush I didn't even test drive one, they don't have the LSD option do they? even on a sport It would stand zero chance against a mk2.5 1.8 with tyre writing... fact

Yeah I do have some spacers knocking about! daft issue is the rear arch liner has some sort of wind deflector built in, il try and get a picture, so no matter what you do it gives the impression the rears are tucked more then they actually are. Edit:

it probably wasn't funny :( Thanks!! Needs a really hard smack with the lowering stick, that arch gap is laughable.

Ha! I was joking you berk! No, in short i'm not. A) Its undetectable by a Mazda dealer B) trackdays also void warranty and C) I have a reaaaaally good relationship with my dealer.

Everyone knows stock mx5s suck balls, Chris Harris Said so

Whos he?

Posted 06 November 2015 - 07:38 PM Mega update!!! So updates where updates are due. Current plans are: Coilovers, I will go meister as and when they become available. An Exhaust, I have a lot going on at the moment but I will do it in a modular way, bit by bit then remap to suit...

A few pictures from cleaning the car the next day.

So a long time lurker and ex poster but since joeyd dropped some gratuitous pictures in his thread I thought Id copy and paste the rubbish I wrote on MX5Nutz, so some of this wont make sense. So THE update. Friday morning at 5am me and my mate set off from Manchester down to some place...

He's turned all posh so at this rate it may actually be a decent car!

Either I have no idea what you're talking about... or you don't. Willing to be its both tbh.

What?! Chassis balance makes a car soft?
