Yeah, the car that redefined what it meant to drive a two seater. It's thanks to the MX5 why two seater roadsters took off again.

Welcome. Good choice in car My dad has a BBR Turbo Mk1 MX5

Amazing! Your car sounds like something off of Gran Turismo And I love those short interior GoPro shots. Very short, sweet and watchable. Love the progress to this build, I like the fact you work hard at this goal. It looks like it pays off Look forward to seeing more vids and snaps

397bhp CT9A with dyno proof...

Very smart. I do like Evos (more than scoobys) -
Ah never mate. My Grandad said the same thing to me. I didn't have room for my car (parents kicking off) my Grandad was like nah be okay store it on my drive. Luckily I managed to keep it at my yard but it's nice to have that option there if I need to. Shame about the MG though, was never a fan of them but appreciate it's a run around. What was the outcome in the end?

True lol. I wouldn't worry about it too much. On my bike I modified the intake to a bigger carb. But this meant I could no longer use the standard airbox so have opted for a RAM filter which is basically a sponge right next to the shock. I ride in all weathers and have never had a problem. I've also been known to jet wash the fck out of the bike, launch a bucket of water at the engine and carb and then fire it up and ride off. I'm sure if can survive that then it'll survive a little rain water.

Tuner Lifestyle's PS-13 Daily Project

Amazing! What a car. Love those cheeky black and colour shots. Also love that interior. Always had a soft spot for the S13. -
Welcome mate, literally was in the same boat a couple of months ago. Me and my brother both bought Starlets. Mine doesn't work. My brothers does. TD04 EP82. My bro went from a Type R Too (ep3) he took one drive in my starlet and sold up his beloved ep3 for a eo82. No regrets. However, it wasn't all sweet. Front wheel nearly fell off on the way home (so believe it or not) make sure the wheels are bolted on. The car smokes on hard over run (NOT TURBO) replaced turbo and it still smokes on hard over run (so valve stem seals). Gearbox crunch from cold (make sure it doesn't).

You can get a decent spec computer for that much. As said it would be nice to have an Intel i Processor but AMD have come a long way.
-
Smart laptop, if you can, stick with Intels range of processors. You'll want to look at maybe an i5. i3's are perfectly good but for the extra money you'll get a longer lasting PC with the i5. AMD have come a long way and are getting better but I still feel that for what it's worth it's better if you stick with Intel. And compared to your current machine, yes it'll be fast. You're always going to be buying last years technology, if with my custom gaming rig, it's still last years tech. But to stay on top for longer It's worth paying the exta for a decent Intel processor.

Yeah I know my brother used this video to help him sort his out. -
1.8 Ghz is low by todays standards. And with you using a modernised OS then you will notice significant drops. You definitely want to grab some more RAM and I gaurantee you will notice the benefits. Really easy to install and you will instantly notice the benefits. There are a few types of RAM you can get DDR2 or DDR3. And clock speed. Stock clock speed is 1333 MHz but you can get faster speeds like I have on my PC. But if your motherboard cannot access these faster speeds then you will be paying for a premium that you cannot achieve. If you're unsure then I'd recommend going to Crucial's web

What's the specs of your machine. Go to Control Panel -> System and Security -> View amount of RAM.... Copy down the specs The internet says i3 and 6Gb of ram? To use up 60% of that is a bit extreme I've used Tune Up before. But to be fair all it does is replicate what Microsoft give you already. And you should NEVER defragment a SSD. So just be careful what drives you defragment. Right click on 'C' drive under my computer click properties and hit 'Disk Cleanup' and that will remove crap no longer needed.
-
if you go to 'Start -> Run -> msconfig' hit enter with that and you can adjust a lot more settings to get the computer running sweet again

Apple is NOTORIOUS for hardware slowing down over their lifespan. It's a combination of bloated software and Apple's 'Business Plan'. They purposely slow down machines. Best thing to do Colin is to use Microsofts built in tools. Removing programs that appear on startup. Things like iTunes that you don't use every time you boot the computer you could actually do without loading on startup. Also you need to look at why your computer is running slow. ctrl alt del will be your friend here. Determine whether it's because there is too much load on the CPU or actually are you just running out of me

Missed it, but will catch it up on iPlayer if it's any good.

That sounds really good. My starlet is stock but when I do decide to modify I will be sure to try you guys out!
