This is why I am hating having to sell my car

[LS2 V8 Miata]

Build a new one

Have a look at the Jap Porn thread to see my next toy....

Is your one still up for grabs Ben? Been toying with the idea of going back to another MX5 for a while now but it would have to have forced induction of some kind as otherwise it would feel a bit too much like a backwards leap after my MR2 Turbo.

Yeah it is mate....I have had a couple of guys have a look, but I really don't think Dec/Jan is the best time to sell a 1000kg turbocharged sports car . Edited to add:

A friend of mine runs a 250ish hp MR2T, and having driven mine and his back to back, other than the obvious handling differences the cars performed pretty identically when mine is at 12psi, when the boost is turned to 14psi though it is a smidgin quicker.

Sounds like the most fun time, the day I picked up my BBR turbo was a bit hairy as it was wet and was the first time i'd driven anything RWD, my girlfriend screamed more than once on the slippery roundabouts of Milton Keynes...
