Buy Shaun's Seats before I drive myself mental  :sad1: :sad:

Come on now Mike, you know you want them,  :evilgrin:  what else would you buy...  :evilgrin: Oh infact you dont have anything else you need, apart from NEW SEATs for the SEAT.

I have different plans, seats wise... they would be to flashy for me... :star:

I could buy them and let you try them out !  :wink:

exactly that mate, the more things that are changed and uprated means less to go wrong, in theory!

plus building a super car slaying machine requires new parts every payday  :P

he has been out in the car and he did enjoy it he's just old and loves his mint mx5 project, i told him its a hair dresser's dream LOL

I cant wait for my car to be properly set up suspension rather than just coilies  and also with new power, a trip to Ireland is on the cards this year as my best friend visits Carrick on Suir twice a year to visit family which i am going to, need to decide whether to drive or get a flight.

seen some nice roads in Ireland that will be a great drive  :driver:



Super car slaying machine ! Love it  :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:

There is plenty to do on the Mx5's, they seem to be a big thing in there own way, with racing them etc  :signLOL: My dad and I had one for a while, but changed it out for a nice wee SLK Merc... :drool: soon after..


What suspension you fancy going for, I had KW clubsports and changed to coilovers, but that was to drop the height after the diet it had been on  :signLOL:  But found the suspension setup great before hand, maybe should have ordered shorter springs instead...

A Trip to Carrick on Suir you say, miles away from where I am matey, it would be down the south of Ireland, very much near Cork !

But yes some lovely driving roads, especially around the coast...  Boat to Dublin and drive the rest  :wink:

I quite fancy the set of Spax PSX  coilovers. I've read some great reviews on them and being around £650 isn't a bad price either so I think that's the way I'm going to go soon. Would love a full roll cage to stiffen the whole car up but it's quite a bit of work for me to do :sick:
Few new mods will keep me going for a month or 2  :pomppomp:

The Spax, don't know to much about them to say, with up to 25 settings, you will have the flexibility for adjusting to suit your needs  :driver:

What about a half cage ?  :happy2:  only half the work  :innocent:

A few mods is always a good thing, like new toys !

Summer time to have fun and enjoy safely  :happy2:

I would really like to have a few track days, this year, and do some 1/4 mile runs   :driver:

I decided against Coilovers in the end mate and ordered A Koni suspension kit with rs3/TT top mounts and some super pro bushes to firm things up abit more   :driver:

Never seen a half cage for sale, got a link to hand mate?  :happy2:

How much of a difference do the rs3/TT top mounts make? , I have a set waiting to be fitted !

There was a half cage in the for sale section a lot of months back, could be worth the look... Or Alex as Mike said, no better man to do it for you, fitted an all.

Have you any strut braces in the car now?
