Only joined the forum early last week, id been toying with getting another toy but wanted somthing totally diffrent from my last car which was a 500bhp audi s4...
Dyno'd at 497 bhp and 540 lbft, was an absolute missile in a straight line and handled well for a car weighing 1600kg...
So my criteria was light turbo'd and rear wheel drive.... i used to have a 330bhp 200sx before the audi so that was kind of out the window, i scanned pistonheads looking at r33 skylines, mr2 turbos you know the usual, then stumbled across a turbo mx5 on there which then led me to here! then i was hooked and had to have one

Theres a few minor issues like some catching on the front from the wheels, and the speedo reads way out lol.
All it needs is that bit extra punch in a straight line but some bigger injectors and a remap should sort that
