Look s a good buy fella

My first one was a BRG V-Spec & i`ve still got a soft spot for them

 

Update time

After deciding to keep the wheels and refurb them i was quickly swayed to buy another set when i spotted these for sale,

Ronal LS 15x7.5 et25

Planned on leaving them off the car till i swapped my toyos on to them but that lasted 5 minutes

And finally on the car

Cars been treat to some machine polishing over the weekend too and has come up a treat, really happy with the way it looks now

Pictures have been taken off my phone so not the best but i will be uploading some better ones when i get my camera charged and my mate picks up his new roadster!

 

You know what i think of this, absolutely love it! Those wheels should of came as standard so much nicer than BBS RZ's. lovely set of rims.

 

i love green MX5, yours looks awesome

 

Lovely V spec!! Really really like it.. those wheels suit it soo well!

 

Cheers for the comments, glad you all like it, just like the horrible chav who thought it was fine too lie his tramp GF on the bonnet while i was at work the night! Mortified to say the least as i seen it happen through the window.

 

Some better pictures of the wheels fitted after a quick clean...

Thats the lot!

 

looking nice but i'm biased

 

those ronal wheels really look the biz, v nice

 

The car looks like it's in great condition.

 

It's great how just changing the wheels can make a nice car look great. Nice one

Few things changed/fitted over last week, firstly removed the fog light as it just passed its MOT so wont be needed again till next year

And secondly, today i had a trip to AK automotive where i got my new exhaust and decat fitted, much praise for the guys at AK, very helpful/freindly and had the exhaust fitted in no time

busy uploading pictures from camera and ill pop them up!

 

Here we go...

I was also joined by this beasty!

And that's ya lot!

very pleased with the exhaust, all though loud coupled with a stainless 4-2-1 manifold and down pipe + magnex decat, its no where near as bad as i thought it would be.

 

They look good together!

Cheers mate

we were certainly turning heads on the way there (hopefully for the right reasons and not just the noise

)

 

Very very nice. . . really like both of those cars.

 

is that snotrags old car?

 

It is indeed

 

Had a small issue with the exhaust knoking over the last week but managed to sort that out with a bit fiddling and experimenting

Found this image from another members thread with the same wheels as mine...

Think they look much better, so this is something i will be tackling in the next week or so.

 

love em with the polished bits

 

Ok so i thought i had cured the exhaust knoking problem but it isnt gone completely.

From reading a few related threads on here i understand it could be worn exhaust hangers, and a set of powerflex ones could cure this problem? Or maybe just replacing with some new oem ones?

Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated

 

Mine knocked side to side and up and down against the bumper, replaced all the hangers with fresh one's from mx5parts as i had a replacement exhaust through, they work a treat, took an enternity to actually get on though, not fun when it's a hot day either haha.

The only problem i have now is i need to trim the second exit hole so it's higher because it was originally lower courtesy of the slack rubbers so now i get a nice burning smell on a long run - win!

 

Looking nice

I do like my OEM BBS rims, but the Ronals just add that bit more

Mark

 

Yeh, with the ronals you get the same look of the OEM BBS wheels but with a better offset and wider wheel.

 

Seen this today... nom nom non spotted on a driveway with another black eunos! black one looked like death.

 

Gunna zip tie a 350z engine into my car this weekend better be about to help

 

Yeh no problem mate done the conversion a million times lol
