Default n00b from Norway

Hi,

Have been lurking on the forum long enough.

Bought my MX5 1 year ago, it was an 1.6L with a JR M45 kit, put on an TDR overlay crank wheel, and installed a Devil's own water injection kit. Changed to injectors from a VVT engine and retuned the ECU for E85.

I'm currently swaping the 1.6 for a 1.8VVT engine, MS3X and installing the Diff from the same donor car.

Welcome to the forum. Do you have plans to go turbo?

I'm not sure what I'll be doing. Turbo would be the easiest way to go. But I have a Lysholm 1600AX that I might use and I realy liked the transient response with a PDsupercharger.

Crome handles are from PO, planing to replase them this winter, car is actualy painted satinblack (PO did this too) Looks great IMO, but is a bitch to maintain. Been thinking about dipping or foiling it mate orange.

Finaly time to start putting stuff on the car:

Just recived this:



Had the suspencion parts hot zinked, just need to spray them matte black.

Going on the car with new Tokico Ilumina, prothane bushings, balljoints, 949 endlinks, FCM bump stops, FCM mount kit and Eibach springs. Was planing on eibach sway bars but due to finances they'll have to wait til spring.
