I have recently bought a 1999 (T)REG 1.8sport.(bright red)lol
My problem is, I have to buy some rear brake discs, and they need to know if I have the 1.8 16 valve version or 1.8
I know it's a 1.8 but not if its 16 valve.
Appparently some parts are different and not compatible with 1.8 / 1.8 16 valve.
I have tried searching, but mx5 / 1.8 / 16 valve words are to small for the search engine to pick up.
To help with identification, it has I am told..
Factory fitted rear spoiler and body kit
electric windows
electric mirrors
air conditioning
leather seats and door cards
LSD
140 bhp
log book said it was 1.8i
Is this a sport, if so is it a sport, as in performance label, or looks, i.e the body kit and pretty bits.
Can anyone put me right I have to get discs quick I am missing all this top down,tear arsing around.
Many thanks, Steve

All mx5 are 16 valve brakes for 1.8 and 1.6 diameter for mk1 and 2 are the same so the diameter for discs on the mk1/2 1.6 are the same with the 1.8 being bigger. Only difference is for some mk2.5 which have bigger discs again.
As you have a mk2 then only one choice of size for the 1.8.
