hey guys, sorry i missed the cruise last weekend- working as usual. the pics look pretty sweet. good to see the ideas are flowing for motorvation- looks like i will miss it, but always next year i spose. anyway, the motor is out and the brakes have been done (yeah) so there are a few bits that are no longer gonna be required. have already sold the cooler, bov and microfueller, but some other more general stuff like the fuel system (pump, injectors (stock), etc), mx7 gear box, standard turbo clutch (only year old), discs and callipers, calais grill (skirts are sold already), 16" ROH ZS mags with tyres (225/50 Yokohama A539 (f) 75% tread, 225/50 Goodyear Eagle-Ventura (r) 90% tread, autometer procomp liquid filled boost/vacum gauge and oil pressure gauge, Turbosmart Type 2 Gated Boost Controller, tail shaft (a bit later) im sure there will be other stuff so just pm me and i will try and find out for you. most of the stuff is out of the car so you guys can check it out before purchasing/telling me to get fk'd cheers guys Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeah, the dude before me had it wired into a button above the rear demister. when you put it in high boost- the PWR light (the one for overdrive) in the dash comes on which is pretty sweet

Are you fitting the plenum yourself? I wouldnt mind doin it all but everyone says dont touch it, just keep it original but I wanna boost hehe. Think the clutch might be going or it could be my poor gear changes lol.
