Glanza_cl Posted February 1, 2011 Author Share Posted February 1, 2011 haha i quite like the pure n/a power, could always itb it ;) ... not really worth the cost though considering i could pick up a dirt cheap turbo kit.we shale see how it goes lol. just bought a red hard top, was going to spray it gloss black but actually red looks allright lol. will get pics up tomorrow of the hard top.some evo4 recaros might be on the cards as well, always liked them ones.Always wanted a 13b rotary mx5 though so maybe... just maybe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
