Well I'm out *cries* :P

Mark or Jimmy, if one of you wants my spot it's yours...

I put my car in the workshop for oil change + check over for track day and discovered massive issues, and they told me a big NO WAI to track day ;)

Real reason, she is scared of teh mazda powah!!!

My clutch literally sh@t itself when it heard teh awesomenesssss of the MX5 was gonna be there!

:-)

On a plus, looks like i should have it sorted in the next couple of weeks!

hehe ok chubbs you got me :P

Cant remember what they said Steveo... there was lots of things... engine has to come out apparently (I think that was the welsh plugs?) ;)

Going to pick it up in a sec so I'll let you know...

Leaking welsh plugs

Turbo exhaust manifold stud snapped - leaking

Castor arm bushes

Alt belt & A/C belt

Clutch slave cylinder

Cam cover gaskets

Also got coolant leaking everywhere... even though only a couple of months ago I got a new top tank, core and water pump all done... so I don't know what's going on there. It was supposed to be all fixed up :)

So yeah, time to save some pennys lol

Thought we were meeting on side of road under Campbelltown exit bridge @ 7:15am???? :P

Ah yes, I forgots!!

7:15 after the bridge on the left, 2nd campbelltown exit :(

Thinking about heading down on sat and staying somewhere down there. Anyone know if this is a ridiculous idea i.e. is Marulan a hole in the middle of nowhere ?? (no offence to marulanites)

    • Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.
    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
