The car is now without the Supercharger, and now i have to rev it to 7200 at every gear! Still fun to drive but to much work to take of the S/C every year for the MOT... The car is still used for trackdays etc , but i mostly drive my new 2009 wich also is very fun in another way....

I nearly lost this car as a fuel-line started lo leak heavily when the car was standing on idle. I guess that some 20-25 liters of fuel created a small lake underneath the car before i saw the disaster and the engine was still running and at the same tima pumping out gas on the very hot engine/headder etc... I promise that this was a very close call...

The RX-7 calipers works well but it was a pita to make them fit. Had to cut big parts of the "mounting ears" on the caliper and weld a new bracket as there were no space left. Also, finding rotors with correct offset was not easy...

Gorgeous Miata man. 5 Stars. How do you like the MP45 Supercharger? I am thinking about going with an MP62 setup on mine. Anything I should be aware of before going through with it?
