Knuckles are from Murray at Mintfab here- https://www.facebook.com/Mintfabrication?ref=ts&fref=ts
If you buy some tell him Rainbow Alliance sent you!
They're not fitted yet mate, they're being fitted along with a load of other bits.
I currently just have rack spacers with de-powered steering which might be worth a try for you first of all mate. Plus you'll need that done to run these hubs on an mx5 anyway. And no there should be no need to trim the tie rods, but you'll need to run S14 brake lines because standard ones aren't long enough.
And Lydden is always awesome mate i love it. Underpowered isn't a big problem there as there's plenty of room to throw it about like a loon.

When you fit the knuckels can you try and get a few pictures for me if you remember so I have a so called guide or something. And I've got power steering but not planning to remove it :s

You will 100% need to remove the power steering. The mx5 power steering pump explodes with just rack spacers in. My mate tried keeping his power steering with mintfab hubs and it exploded 2 sessions in to a drift day at Norfolk lol.
If i'm honest mate you probably haven't pushed the car hard enough or learnt enough to warrant getting cut hubs. Keep practicing with rack spacers in until you feel like you need to be pulling more angle and entering a bit more wild.
Don't buy them just as a fail-safe to keep you from spinning lol.

Cheers man, good stuff.
Erm i paid £130 but that was for a couple of rear lights and a gear knob also lol then £50 to get them sprayed. Yeah I think you can find reps of them but who wants reps!?
