not so slammed mx5

[LarZ]

... It's such a fun car and so involving to drive and not much danger of loosing your license as your never going as fast as you feel. ...

I love this. Too many people focus on massive horsepower and don't truly enjoy the cars in a controlled environment. Although i've driven mx-5s and it's easy to get carried away Love the car, love the look. I can see these rocketing in value in coming years.

Cheers Larz. I would love to turbo the car etc however, as you say about the controlled environment, I don't want to ruin that drivability. I have a td04 there, just need manifold, downpipe and intercooler, ecu. But I'm enjoying driving it the way it is so not sure what to do.

Big exterior changes coming soon though I hope.

They're a LOT of fun with a turbo. It doesn't make them difficult to drive although the sounds and performance are addictive so you'll need to be disciplined

The clutch has let go in the car. Does any of the other mx-5 owners have any experience of the ebay XTD clutches? They look like extremely good back for buck. This one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XTD-STAGE...O1dx:rk:3:pf:0

Some mx-5 owners I've seen rate them very highly.
