Why not just buy a secondhand Honda CRX Delsol for some speed. I had a grey import Delsol model. Fastest car I ever owned, and a two seater convertible. Once the VVT engine changed over at the correct RPM you got kicked into the back of your seat. It was a pocket rocket. Sad when I sold it. But my 'need for speed days' are over, as I am no longer a boy racer

A delsol/delslow would be barely any quicker than a MK2.5 mx5... neither are "fast" cars!

K20's seem to be getting thrown in everything nowadays. Think there was a clio, caterham and fiesta all with them at the last trackday I went to. Shouldn't be too hard to fit in an mx5!

Just bought an MR2 to replace my beloved supercharged MK1, currently SORN, weeping power steering hose to fix etc.

Hi Guys

This has progressed for me .

Also I have found 10+ k swapped mx5s in Ireland/UK.

Anyways what's changed since I posted this thread is the Honed development tubular subframe for the RHD K swap .

Mine will be here tomorrow and its a game changer for the RHD swap.

It's designed to be used in conjunction with the Kpower parts ( sump , manifold ect) and it uses OEM s2000 rubber mounts , custom brackets and some magic with the steering rack mounts.

I might do a build thread.

Mine will k24 with garret g30 660 turbo.

OR go for the much better looking, faster mk2 vtec like my old one! :

One of the best cars i ever owned, and imo probably the best fwd car in the world of its time.. Wouldnt be much slower than my turbo 5 on the back roads in the real world. Those b series engines are absolutly awsome, mine dynod at 165bhp from a stock 1.6ltr! @ 8100rpm. Crazy
