What did you do to your MX5 today ?

[sidewaysreilly]

Freed up a sticking rear caliper. Shortened inlet trunking ( cut the last bend out) to reposition K&N filter behind headlight and ducted some air to feed it. Big differance in responce and not as noisy.Will make up proper mounting brackets at the weekend and shield the filter some more.

Put the hard-top back on for the coming winter, it's always a kinda sad day when I have to do that.
But Next Spring's not too far away

I went to the beach with some friends:



Until the cops arrived...


Drove the 5 u pand down the Healy a few times, and I can verify the VLSD is working just fiiine!

Good to see that the French Police are sourcing their vehicles from 2nd hand dealers in Galway
Bet that turns a few heads when it drives by!!

More reg plates of cars i should never buy because they have been on the beach.....

[VDubbin]

Do you really think one trip to the beach is going to do that much damage?

[Steve]

heh, don't mind 'im, if he was really worried about rust he wouldn't have bought a UK Porsche

No but I would rather it had not been on the beach.
Rust is not to much of a problem. It's the sand getting in everywhere
that would bother me.

[barney]

must say i agree with ivan. i live less than a mile from the beach and i don't go there. i've seen the damage that can be done to shocks etc. sand gets everywhere.

Photos were taken on Inch beach, as part of a few mates that I met through Octane (though this wasn't an Octane run or anything like that, Octane doesn't "do" runs...)

[fabfiveferg]

Yup. Just some people from Octane out on a non-octane related run.

I hear ya.
