Hi guys, I have been the proud owner of a 2006 1.8l mx5. I’ve had the car for about nine months and has been running fine, engine in good nick tires are fine and has had a new battery and spark plugs fitted, but as it is coming up for it’s MOT soon I’ve had it checked out by a few mechanics and...

Hi All, I am hoping for some advice please. A few year ago it was snowing so I pulled my MX5 onto the road to ensure I could get out of the drive, in the morning, facing it down the hill. In the morning the car would not start as the starter motor would not turn. The battery was fine and checked...

Hi All, Long story short - I'm getting P0328 Knock Sensor fault codes but the Knock Sensor appears to be ok with 4.87/4.88 megaohms measured across both pins (A and B ) although i have spotted a bit of dodgy wiring on the ECU around pin 2X (Ground; Shield Wire) and both Knock Sensor and Front...

Hi there, My friend and I have decided to embark on the journey to build a mx5 mk3 race car. and to use it in the BRSCC mx-5 supercup now and again. For us though the build process is just as enjoyable as the racing. We're no expert mechanics though, so part of the fun will be the learning...

I want to remove the little panel (looks like it covers where a cassette/mini-disc may have once lived!) with "Sound by Bose" written on it on the stock mk3 (Sport 2.0) stereo head unit, which is still fitted in the car. Before I scuff all the plastic trying to lever off with screwdriver, has...

Hi Gents, I've been away for a while since I sold my Mk 2.5, anyway I'm looking to buy a cheap NC, I've seen a 56 plate with the retractable hard top for under £3k.... mmm ???? Do these suffer with the drain hole issue of the soft top? Basically I'm asking do I need to worry about rusty sills...

Hi all So this is my second mx5. My first I scrapped 4 years ago due to alot of rust. ????. Missed the mx5 so now luckily I'm back in one! I had originally a mx2 1.8 that was my weekend car/ track day car. Link to that thread below https://www.mx5nutz.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=107305 I...

:) Hi, need some help Car: 2014 MX5 NC Control of body roll on track was poor.....so I decided to get some stiffer anti roll bars to replace the IL Motorsport ones I had (which felt pretty flimsy). FYI on the road, the body-roll previously stayed pretty flat. I decided to go all the way and...

I was driving my mk3 mx5 out with another friend and we stopped at some lights after driving under 3k rpm for about 3/4 minutes. The immature side of me came out and we raced from the lights - I shifted at about 5k rpm on 1st and 2nd gear. Will this have caused any substantial wear or issues...

Hey everyone! Bought my first Mx5 last month, a stunning black Mk3 2.0 sport in great condition. Definitely an upgrade from a 1.2 Corsa... I've only been driving for 9 months so I can't legally afford to mod the car yet, but I'd love to hear recommendations of what mods to get first and if I...

Morning all, I am attempting to choose between the Cobra Road Back Box and the Moss Cobalt Back Box. I know that this has been covered in one or two other threads, but there doesnt seem to be any direct comparisons that I can find with the necessary detail! A little about the car: - 2009 NC2...

I'm looking at a few different aftermarket alloys for my mk3, but not sure what would fit without my having to modify my arches at all. The alloys im currently looking at are 7.5x17 with an offset of 45. Would these fit without my having to modify my arches at all? The car is currently stock...

ミアータ パワー NC Turbo *-* Version 2.0 I thought I do a fresh build thread for my NC turbo. Will be updating the whole process of swapping over bits from my dead turbo NC onto this one. Little info about the car. It's a 06 'True Red' MX5 NC 2.0 Bog standard as they come. 27k and is soooo CLEAN...

Afternoon, I'm after a set of aftermarket alloys for my NC as the standard wheels are in dire need of a refurbish, but I'd rather spend my money on a nicer looking aftermarket set. I want something that will fit without having to roll the arches or anything. I'm open to different options...

Hi everyone. Just thought I would give the Mazda Mx5 SuperCup a shout out on the Nutz forum. The SuperCup is entering into the last third of its first season and has still to visit some of the best and most popular circuits in the country. Donnington 13th/14th July, Brands Hatch 3rd/4th August...

I could find no details on the net to assist removing and replacing a MX5 NC rear brake caliper. The http://www.melens.com/mazda site has manuals but if you look through them in detail there are missing sections in the manual with regards to the handbrake cable. Further the Mazda European...

I don't think there is one of these yet and I've found a picture of an AMAZING mk3. I want one!!

Not seen this anywhere on the forum......post up anything and everything (inc pics etc) from just a drive to fitting a supercharger and everything inbetween I'll start....washed it,waxed it, drove it......

After a Mk3 Hardtop. Preferably Black or Silver, but possibly Red. Must come with fitting kit and all necessary pieces to fit. Cover/stand is a plus. I'm based in Stratford Upon Avon, I'd ideally like to collect and willing to travel, but I can collect via courier too.
