Caught out in the rain without a hard top

Posted on Monday, 18 July, 2011 by Jeremy

Stayed overnight at friends place to help celebrate his housewarming and to help with the wiring on his car. Success all around except I didn’t have my hard top on and it rained overnight. Soft top works but it feels like an umbrella compared to a solid roof!

Inside the J702T

Posted on Friday, 15 July, 2011 by Jeremy

I just prised off the bottom plate on the ignitor. Seems to be filled with a sticky silicon, I imagine I’ll need to desolder the board from the pins.

Mitsubishi Power TR Unit J702T

Posted on Friday, 15 July, 2011 by Jeremy

Just received my MX5 ignitor from ebay that I’ll be gutting to make a plug and play Coil On Plug setup for my MX5. Hopefully will provide a stronger spark and the Toyota COP units are much cheaper to replace than the expensive Mazda coilpack.

HSCCQ Motorkhana

Posted on Sunday, 10 July, 2011 by Jeremy

I participated in the Holden Sporting Car Club of Queensland Come and Try motorkhana today. It was quite challenging but for the tests I undertook I found it quite fun. My biggest issue was with making mistakes with my directions which results in a Wrong Direction score. I’m looking forward to the next event!

MX5 Club track day

Posted on Monday, 27 June, 2011 by Jeremy

I had fun on the recent MX5 track day at Lakeside. Unfortunately my car wasn’t running very well and didn’t make much power over 5000rpm but I was still very consistent with my times and placed well in the regularity! There was a silver Nissan S15 on the track and if you watch closely it was shooting flames out the exhaust!
