JDM mx5 in the uk

[Jaymo_sx]

Got a fresher rear bumper in the garage waiting to go on, a rear number plate panel coming
They're both faded really badly so want it all looking fresh.

looking at power mods now, probably going to turbo it for that extra bhp and go drifting.

(obviously wont drift on the new wheels)

Also got some TSI's (turn signal intakes) on the way

Some classic car chrome mirrors which im looking at mounting on the front wings and removing the side mirrors.

wanting to remove ABS next, sort the speakers out as they're utter wank and i can barely here anything. upgrade the brakes to 1.8 calipers and get a ducktail.


Im sure i'll decide on a few other bits aswell in the meantime

Wait, were you serious about not knowing what those SSRs are? If so, punch yourself in the nuts right now

SSR's spokes go to the edge, the bolts run between the spokes not all the way round. these look more like S1 copies than SSR.

I'm loving the direction this is going.

God. I wish I could drive a Miata without feeling like I'm going to die on the freeway. Looks sweet.

Took the mx5 to buxton yesterday with the intention of 'trying it out' and mainly focusing on taking pictures but ended up spending nearly the full 3 hour session on track!

Had very low expectations for drifting this given the situation:
15x9 heavy wheels
Dry/warm conditions
low powered 1.6 engine
no weight reductions lol

But I got to grips with it pretty quickly and it certainly does go sideways, made a couple adjustments to tyre pressures on the rear and it was fairly predictable!
Not only that, I used the wheels/tyres I drove there on and barely wore them down!


Did have 1 little incident with the wall (due to me being cocky trying to manji the straight) but damage was very light
I also destroyed my GV splitter on route to buxton

Yeah, came out of the corner and went into a manji down the straight following an r33 lol but i caught grip and lost power whilst heading towards the wall so tried to spin out but caught the wall. Damage is on the scuff and indicator, but i have TSI's to go in anyhow
