Got my wideband working at last! Did a wee bit of tuning (out of boost) and took a power run log, torque is up a good bit, v.happy.

Finally got my electric aerial sorted, and I'm chuffed. Didn't realise how much that was bugging me until I saw it running up so smoothly with just the gentlest flick of my finger. :roll:

Incidentally, I've got the UKMasts aerial still in its box; I couldn't get it to work for me, but someone else might like to play. I'll chuck it in the boot the next time we all meet up, in case anyone wants it.

Sweet cremola... I love it.

Is that original Mazda Classic Red or did you go for something different ?

That is going to look the biz. Much redness.

good 'ol SU red - isn't that right, Nerd/Steve ?

by **Steve** » Tue, 18 May 2010 2:35 +0000

Looks fab!

changed gearbox oil today and what a difference. it was probably the original oil that was in the box.

Made a bracket to fit Miata clock spring and combination switch, then rewired (had to figure out which wire did what first as there was no matching diagram) and connected to stock loom connectors.

Steering wheel switch lights on, confirmed they work too.

Today got and fitted new(to me) rear calipers... Tks Steve.

Then washed her, as when I tried to wash it over the weekend the water pressure was to low to get a flow on the hose... Dublin moved to my little village last weekend the suns bring them out faster than I can get my top down! :sunny:

I did go for a drive down to Hook Light house to get away...
