Back in 2007 I bought a NC 1.8 Icon in Storm Blue. By 2008 I traded that in for a Galaxy Grey 2.0 Sport as I intended to Supercharge it so wanted to start with the top of the range model. Long story short I had it Cosworth Supercharged but after a log and painful story I sold it. I am sure a...

Cheers

My mum's 2009 2.0 Sport is now sold This car has low miles (32000) and has a full Mazda service history. It comes with 12 months MOT and was serviced less than a week ago. The car is in great condition and has been really well looked after. THe car is top spec Sport with climate control...

After a change in circumstances I sold my Kawasaki Ninja and was on the hunt for something with 4 wheels and again Japanese. Considered quite a few old Hondas but in the end the price and grin factor of the MX-5 Mk1 won me over. And the pop-up headlights of course. Current plan for the car is...

So, I'm back at the table for my 3rd 5, but my first mk1. It's a 94' Eunos Roadster 1.8 Mazdaspeed B-Spec Stage 2, won in a Facebook bonus ball raffle for £20.00! Not bad since it included a raft of spare parts. The cars been a daily/drift car for the previous owner and is in some serious need...

So recently acquired the car and it's blowing serious amounts of dense white smoke (oily smell) out the exhaust when you blip the accelerator. Guy I got it from said he suspected the piston rings were clogged and need replacing. However, from what I can read the PCV may be clogged and could...

Eunos Roadster rear number plate lamps, as opposed to the UK type. What wattage? From memory these were 10 watt type 245 bulbs, but it's been years and I wasn't sure so I checked my 'new' car and found one 5W and one 7.5W. Don't want to go too powerful and melt the housings so I'd be grateful...

Hi all, Had my MOT recently, she passed with one advisory - rear right coil spring is corroded. It's one of the original types prone to rotting/snapping/getting old. Anyway instead of being a bit dull and just replacing them with standard ones across the axle (and remaining sat in the air) I...

Hi all, I'm after a decent steel radiator cover for my mk2 (the sort that stops air escaping in front of the rad) and I can't find anything suitable. It looks like the Moss ones are too short and only cover the very front portion, so won't help with cooling. While there are a few decent ones...

Greetings mx5nutz, long time no see ! This forum beeing a place for everything related to the mx5 world, I guess this topic will fit. If it doesn't, throw it into the fire :stirthepot: I wanted to share with you a project that has been started with my wife in september 2011. We've been into...

Hi all, Had my car three years and 2 months. Used it daily. When I bought it it looked alright, It's just fairly tatty now IMHO. See pics. The problem is that I've got my mechanic friend telling me to fix it up, my girlfriend supporting me, but my dad (ex-mechanic about 15 years ago) is having...

Hi all, I've realised that, although I've seen a lot of the Mazda options for the NB, I don't know a whole lot about the after-market bodykits available. In an effort to educate myself, and hopefully stop me choosing something hideous because I don't know about the alternatives, I'm hoping...

Hello, I've got a MX-5 limited edition 1991 and I was wondering if anyone know how many left are in the UK. I've got number 221.

Hi all, Hoping you can help me out.. I've got a 1991 Roadster that has started leaking coolant from the front of the engine. There appears to be a crack in the engine that is then dripping down onto the belts. This is then sending the coolant flying over the entire engine bay. The coolant is a...

So here i have my red mk1. iv had it for just over a year and a phone with all my photos was run over so this is a quick catch up to where it is now with a lot of photos missing. so i'll start with the pics of it when it was advertised

Hi all, So, after a brief stint owning a 2004 Euphonic, which went back from whence it came because of a few issues, I spent a while hunting for a replacement. Fortunately I got in touch with Wayne the Mazda Mender who was taking delivery of a low mileage (52,000) 1998 RS import. After leaving...
