More current pics will be up soon of the car. Diff finally shimmed ready to go but ran into a hurdle. VLSD has 6x1 bolt patter to bolt to the factory shafts but the sedan has the 3 lots of two bolts. Luckily M35 stagea have the same rear subframe section and the 6x1 drive shafts needed and ScottyNM35 has one wrecking and is selling the set to me for $300 posted to Newcastle so hopefully it will be in within the fortnight.

Also got HEKO design weathershields from the USA which fit in the window tracks instead of over the chrome so it looks neater than the brown faded OEM ones. Also a subtle bootlip from Ebay which looks nice, but in all honesty get it unpainted and do it yourself. the colours dont match nice at all.

>M35 Aero bar (without cibies) and V35 sedan nismo kit all in white and on the hunt for on yahoo japan and in Aus.

>19' Enkeis of some sort to replace the RPF1s.

>Whiteline sways (dale im looking at you).

>Nismo Odds'n ends (Speedo, wheel, matts, pedals and blinkers)

>Minor electricals.

>Worksbell Paddles (4AT for life, JKS)

>A goood professional detail and service.

All on the agenda for the next 12-18 months or so. if you have or know of anyone selling these things let me know

Cheers #NoFace

Car is now raised up and my RPF1s have been sold off. Running PIAA super mesh in 17s. Feels good to drive places.

The whole "stance", "hardparker" and "form>function" days are over. Focusing on sensible power, driving enjoyment, fun and functionality.

Big things are happening within the next 3-8 months (maybe longer) to the stagline to further make it different fron its normal sedan/coupe counterparts.

Aim is for 210RWKW.

Yes VQ25DET. Driving from Newcastle all the way down to Melbourne to see scotty. Keeping the 4AT in for the time being because $$$$ but will go 6sp MT as the parts pop up and funds come my way.

Had 50 million engine choices, i drove my mates nuts deciding and changing my mind but found that the VQ25DET will be the logical choice. If all else fails then its VQ35.

Going to be a long and expensive 2013.

Watch this space for more updates.

      NC MX5

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT

      I live in a French European province, within a very metric country. We hate football here and the statue of liberty was actually built in France haha. Sadly, we're currently also feuding hard with the US due to tariffs. The US is the US. Everywhere else, is everywhere else.

      Help needed issue with heater core blower and actuator and need someone to fix this and reinstall dash - 32 - Gtst

      By Shauno86 · Posted

      Heater wasn’t working in my 32  so I decided to pull my dash out ( sounded like a great idea at the time) so initially I was sure the heater core was blocked. When I pulled it out turns out that the heater blower actuator was cable tied so it stayed shut and this prevented the heater core from doing its job as well as flowing. so currently the dash is out the heater core is out and seems to be fine but I think I’m in over my head  and need someone that knows what they are doing to take over and get it finished. I’m located in mt Annan, nsw 2567 if anyone has any ideas or suggestions please let me know
