I saw the car last year when I went to look at some wheels Mick had for sale.
The car looks like it should go like a rocket ship but to be honest it didn't look particularly smart, a bit of a mish mash of body enhancements, not to my taste.
In my opinion it would probably appeal to a speed freak more than a true FB fan.

Not sure if this is a compliment or not Ian?

"Elford front bumper £150 that was broken in 3 pieces same price & condition as ian65 was selling his one for!"

yeah, it's a load of bollocks Pete.... the Elford bumper I advertised needed a slight repair to the bottom corner, apart from that it was sound..... and I sold him the power steering setup for £200, not £250..... here's the ad for the bumper and the power steering... I've never sold or tried to sell an Elford front bumpers that was broken into 3 pieces. :roll:

I bought it off Tool for £200.... didn't use it as it didn't fit easily with the Elford Turbo setup so offered it for sale to the members on here for the same as I paid for it seeing as we help each other out on here.
Enter Mick Choi who snapped it up and then put it up for sale on the M_R_C forum for £800.... when I pointed out his blatant profiteering he went into a rant about how he'd sold it for the asking price and some made up bullshit about me that he posted on there.

So yeah, he probably is having a dig at me.... I banned him off this forum and the place has been all the better for it.

Looks like he was fibbing about selling the PAS setup..... unless he's got 2 of them! :roll:

even thought he's banned off this forum he obviously still reads it as he's amended his listing to put up a dyno sheet and amended his description...

A very rare power steering from a jdm 12at & probably the only one in Europe (£235 inc postage+paypal fees checked paypal invoice bought from ian65 & fitted by rxmotors £500+vat so cost me = £735 so no profiting here!

after all that money it only makes 168? :roll: Should have gone 13bt in the first place.

His listing states " just had its mot 26/11/16 with no advisory", it would be a shame if anyone Checked the MOT history as it shows:-

"Advisory notice item(s)
nearside front Tyre worn close to the legal limit (4.1.E.1)"


These sort of lies normally come back & bite you on the arse!

Dyno printout shows 168.5 bhp. In period, the janspeed turbo setup was tested at around 200 bhp. Mazda factory turbo setup gets 165 bhp. Just saying ...
