Earlier in the day we saw a red NB on Ramsgate Ave ...I'm sure it was a SE. We got a wave AND a toot! And on the way back a white NA pulled up alongside on Gen Holmes Drive. Mentioned to him that he had a nice car.



That was me. :) Couldn't decide whether to wave or beep so I did both for good measure. Love the white colour, looks fantastic. I think it's the first one I've seen. :D

...Well, it is one of the only two white SPs made, so it probably is the only white SP you have seen :wink:

Coincidently the "other white one" is currently up for sale refer:

...If you should happen to buy it, I recommend you have it resprayed Crystal Blue. If you do I'll issue a rebate of $50 against the respray 8)

Can't pass that up. Done deal. :D

Yep thats me, good to meet you all on the day.

Looking to get into the 15's & maybe touch a 14 with it, to do this ill actually strip the interior completely and air-cond to see how we go (wish me luck ill need it).

Yeh, ditch the aircon. With an LSD, coilovers, a little underbody chassis bracing, and a LOT of practice you could get into the 13s!

Hey Guran,

Monday the 5th doesn't work to well for me, ill see how I go. Would be great to get some pointers experienced MX5 guys from this board.

Completey agree with you though, its not the car its me (always the case for me). Is removing the air-con a hard task? i'm going to go through the workshop manual tonight to have a look.

White hardtop seen a few times on the freeway to the Gong. Judging by the number plate it's a 1990 NA6.

Hello if you're here.
