Project Sushii - Lower than you ! fo sho'

[Andyc123]

Hey!

right some of you may know.

The saxo came to an end in my ownership today! after nearly 2 years..
in that time a managed a fastcar feature, and 12 sets of wheels!

iv wanted something new for my next car!! not french, or german for that matter..

Jap it was! had to be import & RWD

SO after searching the net, i came across my mate nath Howell's eunos roadster! with all the choice mods done! its a minterrr!! perfect for what i wanted! so after a few words! we decided to px!

he is now the owner of my beloved saxo! and im now The proud owner of his MX! so far after the drive home! i love it!! without sounding all hippy! with the wind in my hair shit! its awesome with the roof down!

I know im not the only Mx owner on here! But i am new to all this Jap stuff!

like i said it already has the main bits done, coilovers/rotas/momo team/splitter.. etc
iv got some future plans atm! but nothing to crazy! just wanna enjoy it!

heres some snaps from the web! ill grab my own tomorrow once iv cleaned it..again!

C&C Sorry its long ting!!

Andy

kinda doesnt sit.. lol!

yeah iv raised about 1cm since them pics! previous owner did the sump on a cat eye! :(

[nelson-swfc]

Nice.
He going to be making any changes to your saxo? Or keeping it the same.

[shezzo]

love it mate seriously low nice

[LSOfreak]

one of the best mx5s ive seen

[M1TTJ]

Once you go jap..... ;)

Looks good

[CHIP]

I love these early mx5's... However, being brutally honest i didn't like your Saxo one bit lol.

Hopefully you'll win me over with this one :)

[shannon-ob]

Wow, that's nice! An amazing stance too!

[mattknight1984]

Looks nice for such an old car - H is 1990 isn't it? must be nearly as old as you ;)
Difficult to put ur own stamp on something that looks done/complete or u just gonna enjoy this one?

[Lewis]

Stance is perfect in those snaps, great car, its the 1.6 N/A I assume? IMO i would have just went for an S body but these little things are a good laugh

[LSOfreak]

does that windscreen sticker get annoying? lol

seeing this mx5, and realising how much a convertible is needed in weather like this really makes me want one. Only problem is that its a 2 seater though :S

[JoeHindle]

this makes my love for mk1 mx-5s stronger, this is beautiful :) nice purchase and just in time for the beautiful weather ;)

[Jay_]

stunning! always been a big fan of these! :y: i was going to mention the wheels....

[CarlosVT]

Looks real nice mate. Is your mate a member on here? Is he doing anything to your saxo or keeping it as it was? Shame to see it go really, it's a lovely car.

[m11ler]

This looks awesome mate, makes me want an mx5 for my second car even more!
Whats your plans then, if you have any?

[Richy_Rich]

Looking Nice!

Looking forward to seeing your mark on it!

[Andyc123]

Wheels are mint. Stance is way hellaflush unlike the saxo was. Same wheels what you were putting on your saxo just with bigger dish. Can't think what they are called :|
personally I would never camber my cars but on jap it's awesome. That pic from behind is nothing more than sexy :y:

HOPE YOUR CHANGING THE COLOUR!!!

in the mean time iv got a lazy eye kit fitted / Yellow headlight bulbs, Canibeat plate frames and array of stickers. im awaiting a few more parts too! My new exhaust is being made too!

Need some numberplate ideas for USA plates. Anyone?

Im planning on a smooth bay/wire tuck as iv not seen one done on a mx5 .. i shall start this when my wheels are home,


Andy

[vtrxstickens]

[titchster]

Check ClubRoadster.net, few done over in the states, and there's a thread on there about it with people giving different hints etc.

[LSOfreak]

[timmythechef]

Are they new arches on the rear? Seen this at players.

[Jay_]

Don't like the pipes....:n:

[minimanspk]

just my opinion but I think it looks stupid but I do like the front splitter

[ajdsaxo]

Except for the amount of wheel showing at the back, I love this car and buy it in a second!

[Andyc123]

the pipe is removable only couple of 10mm bolts!

[Damask]

[LSOfreak]

remember seeing this at ace cafe stanceworks meet. looks brilliant. Kinda prefer the original wheels you had on it though

my car was parked across the road, and then i got stuck on the kurb trying to come down :(

[Andyc123]

I tell you what there are a LOT of very, very nice jap spec cars in northants. EK9s, Jordans, 200/240SX's, Silvias...they're fucking everywhere. Massive VAG scene too..car porn everywhere!

[Andyc123]

Andy

[GolfJay]

Was the MX5 really that low or is it just the splitter that's low?

[Lewis]

Was this you at the Northampton CrewsUK meet a few weeks back? Got a few pics of it with the Htec elite promo girls

[JoshFurioBrookes]

Was the MX5 really that low or is it just the splitter that's low?

I can confirm that the MX5 was really rather low!!!

[GolfJay]

I can confirm that the MX5 was really rather low!!!

I really want to challenge it lol I won't clutter up the guys thread though!

Never realised this was yours dude. Saw it when it was red last year at Milton Keynes Jap vs Dub meet :)

preffered it red tbh! remember seeing it at ace cafe, looked awesome.

[Andyc123]

cheers guys, red did look good, but theres loadsa red ones, not any others in tha new colour,

thanks for the snaps chip! great work :)

i can asure you, it was very low generally!

Andy

[titchster]

Was the MX5 really that low or is it just the splitter that's low?

The chassis rails and stuff underneath aren't far off being as low as the splitter itself, if not lower. So yeah, the whole car is really low.
