i think the problem 1st of all is the older version are 1.6 i think and its pretty underpowered ?
but the current 1.8 and the new turbocharged version should be a hell lot better.. yeah as long it has LSD, should be a fun drift softtop :)

:) Insert an aftermarket supercharger into the 1.6 engine might b good enough....my 2 cents ...

MX-5 has viscious lsd.... so probably need to change the lsd to an aftermarket unit. Yeah i think 1.6L is pretty underpowered. For those hardcore mx5 fans, can consider 13B swaps.

the 1.6 can drift also ler..but its really underpowered .. 116hp is not enough..

but if you turbocharge it and with lsd then different case.. :D

13Blah woi .... surely damn 9 power one .. hehehehehhehee

 

[Kurt]
