So you went from being a bmw dickhead... that you couldn't steer...
To a datsun and then onto a hairdressers car? :D
That really is a gay downward spiral! :D
Haha, looks good though and jokes aside... they are epic cars to drive!

ah just the one to be fair!
i would actually love to do arse pumping in the dry in this completely standard just to show people that you dont need vaseline's pure petroleum jelly but it would be a sore case of friction blisters
you should get a sponsor from wd40
Whatever about your sexual preferences Pete, there is no need to blame them on the car..... Also, no petrol pump fights next time you are listening to Wham!
HUGE UPDATE!!!!!!11!
not really.been driving this since anyways, it has an oil leak that I need to sort and a balljoint (by the sounds of it).
I fitted a garage vary replica plastic splitter, and some red leads that were in the boot. I also did a few skids today, ill upload the video when its up on youtube!
these things are great, dont care if theyre gay!

17-10-13, 18:34
fucking bastards! And the silvia infront of it aswell? Lucky none were taken.
Fucksake...as above, you were lucky they didn't go at the s14 man.
Bastards fairly simple to rob without cutting the roof
Yeh I'm worried about the 14 now tbh. Gona take the battery out of it and steering wheel off.
Got a snap off boss for the 5 tonight. Jay rockett is currently outside trying to sort the wiring loom. And yeh, Simon Hayden has very kindly donated me his old soft top which is super sound of him and hopefully ill get that tomorow.
The cunts robbed my new etnies shoes outa the boot
That's fierce sound. Most hairdressers I know are cunts...

ive the same snap off its a good one. Just keep the spring mechanism greased can get sticky. Not the splines, then you'll be fed up of all the grease on your hands :P
Rumors that the new batmobile will be a miata..........

haha andy that is the weirdest vid ive seen in a while!
anyways! some more progress! this yoke has had a pretty significant oil leak since i got it so today i had it down in di motorsport for jay to sort, upon taking off the rocker cover and cambelt cover it was obvious whoever had been at it before was butcher. he changed the cam oil seals and the rocker cover gasket so thats that sorted!

so mondello drift day is on saturday so did a bit of prep today. Gave it a service, fitted 2 tow straps that I got from japystle.org and fitted some extra lock washers, seem to have made a nice bit of difference that ive noticed juts by the turning radius! will be getting the diff welded during the week. couple of random pics

it actually doesnt rub at all! its not really low arch to tyre, its just the chassis rails are a bit too close to the ground for comfort

well, had a fucking great day in mondello. driving the mx5 is the complete opposite end of the scale to driving the nissans ive driven at mondello before!
first session the track was wet, which i thought would be great, but no, was getting far too much horrible understeer then snapping into grip and chucking me around, mainly into the grass or gravel.
after the first 2 sessions all was good, had still used no tires or petrol and was getting the hang of it now that it was dry! all corners bar the last corner were flick and clutch kick entry as it was the easiest (but scariest?) way to get it to avoid understeer and keep the speed up!
did 6 sessions, not one fluid leak, not one tool was taken out, and only changed wheels once! fantaaaaastic! so so much fun. top of 3rd gear ~ 130kph flicks are amazing fun!
have gopro footage on my mates camera ill stick it up as soon as i get it!
a couple pics that popped up on fb. splitter got pulled off in the gravel one of the times i went across it!

Looks like fun! You need to invest in a roll bar!
Yeh a roll bar would be a good idea alrite, Ive been thinking that. Juuuust Incase!
Yeh Keith add me, Peter Taylor!
wish i had the balls to drift mine. Great stuff man!
ya dont need balls just take it slow at the start man! theyre are such a well balanced car, so much fun!
quick clips from the straight, probably the most unimpressive place to watch a low powered car though
