//no pic.

Is metallic Poo brown not as 70s as it gets ? 

Ah I have posted it before - keep trying to get a pic of the mechanics very nice black mustang but it does not get out often 

Work spotto - Truck mechanic is a mustang Barry and this is his Barry mates 66 in for a wof 

Buy a spare set of wheels and discs and  sprocket to make knobblie to road tyre swaps so fast and easy 

+ 1 for moreys diesel injector cleaner in Smokey old diesels have resurrected a few big old motors with it from barely running after sitting for way too long with ancient buggy diesel in the tank 

TR6R - the TR6C trophy motors are a bit higher compression 

May have a manwell and parts list if you don’t have already

Should own this mess tomorrow all going well.

1971 triumph tiger or trophy 650 - first of the oil in frame looks like a 1971 cos they had the higher seat was dropped 1972 and air boxes fit slightly different. 
 

And beaten to the chocolate fish but am I right yeah ? 

Ah right it’s a ford in a ford ...  get another ford cover and tig it onto the drivers side - the asymmetry looks so odd in rwd yours is mostly hidden under intakes 

Not even sure the pcv valve has to be mounted in the the cover direct - do some cars have them in-line in a hose ? Or mounted remote ? 

You have covers off a late model mazda KlG4 without the link pipe ? Use them or bung the ford ones up - surely you can move the PCV hole to another location on either cover where it’s out of the way as long as it’s on the right angle for the ball valve inside ? 

Odd I can see the pics fine last night and today - on 4g 

@Hurmeez  nice air box design 

That pcv outlet on the front of drivers side valve cover that’s in your way - delete it - it only runs to a hose to the other valve cover - block that side too just leave the actual PCV. valve at rear of passenger side cover 

the later engines did away with the link between covers they breathe fine without it have oil drain ports from covers to sump

nah i got no job, no money and no space now... but i love this thread, especially the contribution from kyteler...

If I score a ute then you can buy my au ... but you are in wrong island - Southland is the home of the cheap not quite thrashed booze cruised very much au ...

@governorsam
^ giz please - if you decide you don’t want I would be very interested to do a deal 

Mine is Fairmont way classier has the fake woodgrain dash and electric windows on all 4 doors and honeycomb grill not waterfall grill also has the rare and desirable clear coat peel camo paint job 

I thought 1500 reg wof good tyres would be top dollar for these

Fuck $2900 for that price you could buy mine for 1500 get dropped at ferry meet me in Picton drive home pay for ferry gas snacks and still have money left over to drown your sorrows afterwards 

Link to thread mentioned -  ? 
they are easy to work on - cheap and any issue has been worked around and a quick google will give the facts on how to fix it 

And they are very fun to drive as a slow car fast around corners 

Also can’t believe we are onto the 2nd page of an Mx5 thread and no one has questioned your sexuality ... 

mine is eunos also 1989 and nope only rust so far is light surface rust on the unpainted tube behind the dash 

How much is speeduino pnp ? Cos 1100 for a megasquirt makes link look cheap at not much more

From memory the later discs are bigger diameter,  the caliper is the same, just has a different bracket

Yup 2 size upgrades from the stock 1.6 brake NB are larger and NB sport are another size up - calipers stay the same it’s all in the brackets and rotors 

Bolt in roll bar or welded ? 
how cheap was cheap ? 

200 entire package + courier ? / negotiable 

Long loom cost me over that 

Have had ecu live and tracking crank trigger then got to no spark/ prob ignitor issues and gave up went coil on plug and link so no guarantee on whether the ecu is fully functional...

Dell Laptop has the ems software and basemaps on it -not sure if there is a Holden 6 map on there  dead battery just plugged it in to my hp cord

so I've found a cheap ems stinger on facebook which has nudged me in the direction of injecting the 202. I know tbi or single point injection is shit but its less shit than a carb. 
Will be keeping a eye out for a EA falcoon TBI module.
Any suggestions on alternative tbi units?

The other option would be figure out how to mount 3 individual injectors on the runners without looking like shit

Read my comments a few pages back re ems stinger 

but if you buy one I have a whole stinger v4 a very short loom and a brand new long loom and new ford wasted spark 6 cyl coil pack + a Bosch 4 plug narrow/wideband that the stinger can read directly - yours for cheap if you go down that rabbit hole 

also a laptop old enough to read the help files and a serial connection
