pretty similar to a cam on paper really! Was really surprised how nippy it is for a 1.6!

Ha I have a td04 turbo manifold and downpipe there for it. I have to get adaptors made up for the manifold and downpipe. I have it in another thread http://driftireland.com/showthread.php?t=14817 But I'm absolutely broke so will have to wait till I finish the college shit unfortunately! Need to get a lot of info on what to do and specs, will hopefully get to a few drift days and get talking to a few of you'se soon enough and hasslin you'se for help!ha ha
ya know what would look fucking savage in that car,
ditch those brides and swap them for a set of these ones

Wouldnt like them at all! Probably go for bride zeta lll!
I've a long way to go before then though, here's the plans:
-sort out all the wiring(previous owner did a wire tuck and everything is moved)
-sort out the headlight problem (lights will pop up but not down)
-New metallic black boot lid and respray number plate panel
-Hardtop, silver or black
-respray front bumper and fill the number plate holes and get a plate the mounts to the tow hook
-underseal the hole car, as its so low the paint has been rubbing off the sills on the speed bumps so want to repaint them and underseal it before any rust sets in
-Hsd HR coilovers
-Get a proper turbo setup similar to trixta's on here
-Kazz 1.5 lsd
-Either rota d2's from America or wide 16x8 banded steelies
-More steering lock
-Will probably do the subframe bushings at some stage as they are known to go on the mx5, and that will help stiffin it up, wishbones and anti-roll bars bushes will be done as well
Small update, got a brand new bootlid and got it sprayed black.

Enjoying a little bit of sunshine, got a new front number plate mount that hooks onto the tow hook:
