Apologies for dragging up an old thread but my car appears in the staff cars section in every issue of Total MX-5 and after a year from hell (including a house move) things are settling down a bit and I'm spending more time on my car (and on here, and hopefully getting out a bit more to events, Coombe Abbas etc). I'm in the process of having it turbocharged and will be messing around with it some more and reporting on it in the magazine, along with writing some articles.
I'd be interested to hear of any ideas you might have for the magazine. I can't promise I can do anything with them (and I write for them on a freelance basis, I don't pretend to speak for or represent them) but stories on interesting cars, people, MX-5 events, modifications and so on are always worth suggesting. Any articles you'd like to see in print?
Here's Dave, my '97 Mk1. Open diff (need to investigate LSDs), standard 'box (need to investigate a six-speed or sticking with standard), Team Dynamics wheels and currently too sticky Michelins (fancy some alternative wheels and Paradas!), ME221 already fitted and with turbo to come, needs a roll bar of some kind, decent seats (standard at the moment, have a Sparco Sprint but it's too small), will probably rattle can the roof in matt black, uprate the brakes - loads of stuff to do. I'll start a thread at some point and will ask for some suggestions on where to take it next.
