520km to 32L = 6.15L/100km. My 1990 NA6 MX5 -> NB6 conversion is finally coming along. The intake, alternator, starter motor and coil pack from my old engine has been attached to the new engine. The intake cam is having the sensor pressed into it any day now. The LSD diff and NB rear subframe has been bolted to the body. NA8 brakes have been fitted as is the 4-2-1 exhaust headers. Last night I filled the gearbox with oil and replaced the rubber seal around the gear lever where it exits the gearbox. The previous owner had rigged up some dodgy seal out of old seat foam. Didn’t get around to attaching the new clutch, flywheel and gearbox to the engine last night but someone else will hopefully get that done and the modified intake cam installed today.
