When my grand Cherokee died my mechanic sold me as a gap filler before I got a new car, a 2002 mx5 mk2 1.6 with 50k on the clock. One lady owner. I got two speeding tickets in the first month trying to keep it under 30mph. New clutch,new brakes but my mechanic won’t let me sup it up as apparently I’ll kill myself. I couldn’t work out why I needed rear tyres so soon until I realised I’d wheel spun everyday. I keep meaning to sell it but at 57 my daughters all grown up I just can’t bring myself to let it go 😂. I watch you great videos, as a sculptor I’m very practical and follow each step you do so could do the conversions but the image of James Dean’s Porsche haunts me.

Thank you for all your post. I know it’s difficult to film and edit all this for us watching. I truly enjoy your videos because you take the time to point out in detail things/trouble to look out for. I also like that you admit that things don’t always go as planned. I’ve been watching your vids for a while now because I too am a Miata enthusiast. This is a kit that I’ve seriously considered for one of my Miatas, along with engine conversions. My 99 is supercharged and we got it 255 HP to the wheels, and so far no trans issues. However, it the trans does let go, then this will be the next mod on that car. Again, thanks a lot!
