    I'm New to This!

    Hi Everyone,

     

    Im new to the club, have just bought a 1992 MK1 Eunos. See picture below.

    Have polished it and everything and was just wondering what else I could do. All necessary work and stuff seems to have been done, what other upgrades can I do without getting into serious money! Can't wait for the next South East meet.

    Welcome to the forum. Best advice is to drive it and enjoy it. Once you see other fives you'll work out what mods you'd like to do.

     Nice car, I like the de-tangoed side repeaters and markers another thing to put on my list, An MX5 parts book is a good source of inspiration.
