Re: Bodyshop Recommendation - North West / Manchester area

Cheers! Think that's my 3 for quotes then.

Ste at Fat Fender, CBS Autos and Deepcar I think. A nice triangle from here as it happens; not sure I'll visit all in a day mind you!

Bodyshop Recommendation - North West / Manchester area

Hi all, I need to get some work done and would like to tap into the assembled wisdom here! I'll probably goto 3 places if it's feasible, so I can compare quotes etc. But equally if there's any I should avoid then please shout. Within an hour of South Manchester if possible. I'd like an MX-5 speciali...

Re: Suspension swap - other recommended parts to renew

They are, but I'm thinking of associated parts while I'm swapping the units really.

Suspension swap - other recommended parts to renew

I'm replacing my ageing Bilstein setup with a new Gaz fixed height coilover setup (yes I did ponder this for some time, but they were well priced and I could justify the same cost again on Meisters!) What else should I realistically replace while I'm doing this? I have some new bumpstops to go on, b...

Re: Toyota dealership has the green light for alignment

Good stuff - an alignment check is on my to-do list.

Can I ask what the discounted cost is?

Re: 92 to 95 emissions and CAT requirements, the answer

Sorry to bump this thread after nearly two years, but I have a question.... I found this thread as it almost exactly answers what I was searching for. But on the last point raised, I'm in the same boat. Mine's 93 import, but the V5 says 'Mazda MX-5'. Does anyone know if it's possible to get the V5 a...

Seized exhaust bolts - back of cat

Any tips? My std exhaust is shot and has a large hole in the backbox, so isn't really suitable to drive with. Plus the car is up on axle stands while I attend to rust/rust prevention. I thought this was the ideal time to get the old exhaust off, and the MX5-Parts staineless one on! Have tried PlusGa...

Re: Mk1 Eunos - upgrading single DIN headunit

In fact, Vlad has the same setup in his own car. He sent this across earlier...

Might go for the black finished version, as I'm not really a fan of interior chrome/shininess/bling :lol:

Re: Mk1 Eunos - upgrading single DIN headunit

Thanks guys. Checked with Vlad as well.

As for the other gauges, I'd prefer a cleaner look and like the look of the stereo, with a central clock underneath.
