  7. Bought these OZ racing coilovers, bc golds were out of stock and i couldnt wait haha Threw it all together and this was the result Rubbed a little... lol
  8. Wasup dudes! So i sold my Mk2 escort and was looking for somthing abit more sideways capable, was mostly looking a non turbo fl s14's as they were in my budget, Then i stumbled across this Beaut Id always wanted a mx5/miata since i had first got my license! It was alot cheaper then a silvia so i had alot more money left over to spend on it Drove to auckland with a mate to check it out, ended up driving it home haha Leave a comment on what you guys think! and any ideas on options to get some more lock Specs are : 1989 Mazda mx5 jdm import 1600 175xxx on the clock.

  9. Abit has happened since my last post. My mate didnt end up wanting to sell his rims. So i ended up ordering a set of 175/50r13s from some place down the line because no one in whangarei seemed to have them, or could get them. Shes pretty much done now, went for a wof on friday with my old tyres because my new ones hadnt arrived,only failed for one tire being low on tread which i was expecting so quick drive out to hulses to chuck his spare set of turbos on. slapped the sticker on then straight to get a rego haha.. Only have shitty cell phone pics. New tyres! shot to the brother MACKAZ for putting the tyres on and giving her a alignment! Discussion link here ---> http://www.oldschool...hp?f=18&t=31113

  11. buying some new rims of my mates hillman next week. 13x7 0offset steelies. look exactly the same as modgies just not chromed. with 175/50r13 tyres. Once i get them il finally be able to lower as the massive tyres i have on atm would rub too much! want to go just over 3" all round. should be like this but tiny bit lower. this has same size rims and tyres so is a good indication.

  21. Hey guys thanks for the feedback!! Have had this project about a year and haven't even touched the engine, so i think its about time to start thinking about that.. talking budget wise defiantly nothing special as still at school.. with my part time job something around $80 week. looking foe a better job My mate is selling a red top 4age for $350 without box or anything, i could be interested in buying that but dont really have an idea of what else i need apart from box and a stronger diff the car atm has a 2inch exhaust with two coby mufflers. apparently the cam isnt standard thats what my mechanic told me but i really have no idea. The car is defiantly gonna be my daily. pretty much drive to school and back. and skid it in the wet but dont really like putting to much strain on my diff and engine.
