so i have been doding some research and i have found u can buy and they will fit 2001-2003 mx5 pistons which will take the stock cr from 9.0:1 to 10:1.
also a mx5 1.6 flywheel and clutch kit will work with the b6t box aswell. so i might get a light weight kit too its funny how i have nearly planned this hole build but the car need to be running in 2 weeks haha :s i will make a game plan tonight and see what i can get done in the time frame..

Cut a hole in the floor and let the exhaust 'warm' you.

Wear your ugg boots like the skirt you are. If I can deal with a car with no AC in QLD weather for 5 years now, you can deal with no heat.

UPDATE
I have modified the new front door cards to hold my 6 inch speakers and to look alittle better. i have also found a hatch Top wing Yesterday I finished off the drivers seat rail. my welding was a little ****ty but its due to using a gasless mig to make the bracket. But they job is done and the seat is straight now just need to wait for my rear tail lights, mags, and centre console to arrive and she is ready for rego. well i also nee to get a piece of pipe welded in place for the muffler but im not having a go at that as i was blowing holes in my test pipe yesterday.. need more practice before i start with exhaust pipe.. man if i had the $$$ id get a TIG
