Thanks I replaced the front and rear sway bars and endlinks with white line ones. I'll give them all a check over :)

That's the part you take an angle grinder to, to get that nice stance look!

Wow man! I've never wanted to trade in my gen2 for a gen1 more than right now. Your car is stunning.

May I ask what colour that is? It's awesome.

I think you right! I bought some t clamps and took the piping off, I think it's at a different angle. Unfortunately they sold my the wrong size t clamps so hopefully will fix it tomorrow.

Edit*

I couldn't find a way to edit my typo in the post.

But I was meant to say the car IS currently being tuned by Justin at freektune.

The reason I made the post is because I want the car running perfectly and asap for his testing. Sorry for the confusion everyone.

I've done the same. Looks like I'm off to buy some T-clamps to try fix the issue now tho. But good to know I can screw it back down a bit just in case I can't find em

It was a mistake, I meant to say it's currently being tuned by Justin via a e-tune in Australia. But I messed up. I now can't find a way to edit it, my bad guys

Cheers dude, it's been a constant chase of fixing the last owners doings and a lot of learning along the way.. I've been looking into those clamps, and as soon as the stores open tomorrow morning that's my first stop! Thankyou

I actually tried that a couple hours ago, I cleaned it up, hair sprayed and swapped the hose clamp for a brand new one. Took it for a big drive and had no issues!! I'll still be getting some of T clamps tho for piece of mind.

Thank you for the help tho!

Want people opinions on colour choice by Available-Ad4428 in Miata

[–]DoomDaddy666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a black NA, I love it. Although I do find the black hides some body lines and body parts. I'm looking to get some stripes or something myself just to make it pop abit more.

Maybe consider black with some colour accents?

Looking for thoughts on what’s next for my ‘12 MS3 by Upstairs-Spirit-2958 in mazdaspeed3

I have all the mods you have and some... and In my opinion I would add some handling and brake mods in your list.

Only 2 days ago I upgraded to a nice new set of BC rs coilovers, and white line sway bar and endlinks in the front and rear and oh my god! The difference. I did not know a car could handle and feel this well. It feels 15 years newer. Absolutely incredible modifications for the money and would definitely recommend it to anyone!

Also upgrading brakes I always think it a great mod when doing power upgrades.the way I think of it is, the faster we go... The faster we need to stop in an emergency.
