MX-5 OC Forum

I'm taking delivery of it tomorrow. I was just tying to check and see if anyone had any experience of doing it or knew of any help pages I could look at in the meantime to get an idea of what I'm doing.

I'm getting the kit below (see link) and was wondering how simple/difficult the wiring is for the steering wheel controls to fit? Or indeed if there are any websites or videos online that tell you how to fit them? I'm sure I've seen something online previously but my searching is not returning anything. All help ...

Eibach's (35mm lower at the front, 30mm lower at the back) and alignment sorted. New tyres all around this coming Thursday. Can't wait for some dry(er) weather, lol

I live up in the North East (Hartlepool) but I'll be travelling down south around the 31st so a slight detour/stop off somewhere wouldn't be difficult

[quote user="Rich M"] How did you find the Toyos? If they're good for you maybe go same again or Nick the tyre fellow recommends Khumos and was going to make up a test set of wheels I think, maybe pm him. We replaced T1Rs on ours with OE spec Potenzas in 84 rating and for reason of design or rating found ride and handling much ...

Need to get the four tyres replaced on my MX-5 as the 4 T1-R's I have are getting worn. Has anyone any recommendations for replacing them, I know these are popular and the Rainsports 2's I hear good things about those as well but does anyone prefer other tyres and if so which ones. Between the Toyo's and the Uniroyals I'll be going ...

[quote user="Nateon"] My dad does this with Lotus Elise drivers and they always do it back, i don't know if it's because they're uncommon or friendly. I have a lot of mx5s around me but i've never received a wave or a flash of the head lights, i think it could be a fun thing =] [/quote]   Elise's tend to have ...

[quote user="SmilerFTM"] [quote user="Geordie"]  I've done this run this week and I have to say it's awesome. Both roads are some of the best driving roads around with spectacular views.  I'll be doing this one again.[/quote] Try this one, getting to Pickering along the A170 can be a bit slow and ...

I'm planning a euro trip next year (around June) and I'll be taking in Reims (old race track terraces and pits), Mulhouse then south into Switzerland and over the Grand and Petit St Bernard Passes (Italian Job's opening scene filmed there with the Muira). After that back into France and down the Route De Grand Alps to the French ...

The B6278 links those two reasonably well but the best drive around Middleton-in-Teesdale runs through said village and up to Alston, The B6277. In fact you can make a superb figure of eight using those two roads and incorporating the Hartside Pass as well. From Middleton head north west to Alston on the 6277, then head in the same direction along ...
