Lunch time in a work day... Eat or having fun?

Ci sono delle giornate, in cui il sole e le curve chiamano insistentemente, quindi ogni tanto in pausa pranzo durante i giorni lavorativi, scatta il giretto in collina. Tornanti, top down, sole, paesaggi... Quindi la scelta tra una tranquilla pausa al bar ed una divertente gita in collina è presto fatta. Un panino veloce alla macchinetta aziendale e via verso i colli bolognesi dopo aver scovato su Google Maps un po' di tornanti invitanti...
Perdersi, vagare in cerca di curve immacolate, nessuno in giro, solo la musica del motore e dello stridio delle gomme, e poi tornare al lavoro in tempo con l'aiuto del navigatore... Ma con il sorriso stampato!

Top Down in a Rainy Night

When passion for Spider Style is stronger than bad weather...
Highway, 10:00 PM, 110Km/h, Rain...
The video is made by Luca, an MX5 Italia user. Total Respect! ;-)
He said: " The best thing is have been watched by other people with O_O eyes! "
Too many people don't know that at high speed your hair remains dry... Air protects you from a shower :-)



Here are some funny banner take on Honda S2000 Forum, but they show at best also MX5 spirit...

The Engine and The Girl - May Helen Dahl

That's a very cool video of a Norwegian drift girl disassembling her Nissan 180SX engine.
Well skilled, good drifter and she is so cute... Total Respect!

Looking for GAZ GHA Coilover


For several months i have looked for suspension upgrade. Read a lot of review, read hundreds of post on many MX5 forum... My budget is very limited, so i must find the best quality/price ratio kit. I want to eliminate the understeer of my MX5, now is too bouncy on turning, and is seriously tall... It looks like a 4x4!
Some month ago, i was looking for Koni shocks (fixed height and top adjustable for damping rate), H&R or Eibach springs and FatCat Motorsport Bump Stop , but at the end the price is similar to a complete Coilover Kit...
Now, the question is: Tein SuperStreet or Gaz GHA Coilover?
Tein SuperStreet has a lot of good review, Spring rate 4Kg/mm Front - 3Kg/mm Rear, 1300€ on Italian Shop or about 1000€ on Ebay UK.

 


Gaz GHA for MX5 NC is newly on the market and there are not more reviews...
Spring rate are 6,2Kg/mm Front - 4,8Kg/mm Rear and the price is very good! about 500£ in UK with shipping.
One MX5Italia's user has buy this kit 2 weeks ago and he give a good feedback. He said "nice quality/price ratio"... So i'm looking for this kit too...

Here some photo of his MX5 NC with Gaz Height Adjustable Coilover:
