...sorry for this, I don't mean to thread hijack at all, but how well does an MX5 really drift? I thought they were too short and underpowered for a stable drift...

Asked my dad if he's in for a project.... He was talking about starting a project mx5 a few months ago and make it jdm style (guess I influenced him

)
What's the mileage? I'll let you know what his response will be!

Have posted this on JPOC for you, a lot of drifter types over there who may be looking for a base/project.

Haha cool, will talk to him this evening. First reaction after seeing pics: steering wheel is stolen.

correct the steering wheel is stolen, unfortunately i couldn't detach it from the rest of the car so i took that too

hmmm too much information on a for sale thread perhaps

on second thoughts nope steering wheel not stolen and neither are the centre caps on the wheels but they all have the eunos badge rather than the mazda badge. why? i aint got a clue but its a uk car not an import.

It was more of a reverence to the fact that we al got LHD cars @ the mainland and for us it always looks kind a funky to see a RHD car

Anyway good to know they're not stolen
