OK guys I get the point!
To those who post from now on - I'd really appreciate it if you could answer my question rather than pick up ONLY on the flaws of it...
Thanks...

A quick oil question....
Hello again! Posting this for a friend (who now owns my MX-3), in the UK climate (generally not so warm) what's the skinny on using 5w-40 oil (instead of 5w-30)? My guess is that since it's thicker, when the engine gets to super-nova temperatures (as it does) the oil will be able to handle things be...

HOWEVER I moved on to pastures new - and now own a Nissan 200SX (so I got my 200bhp, in fact now tuned to about 250bhp) It's fast as hell, b...

Update... and moving a little off topic... After considering different things, such as, complications / parts sourcing / traction issues / upgradability / cost, I'm contemplating doing up my MX to sell, and buying a Nissan 200SX instead. ECU reprogramme + performance exhaust = ~270bhp through the re...

Update! I spoke to them again today, the main man in charge isn't 100% sure if it's a UK spec car or an Import (JDM). So I'm going to make the 5 hour round trip tomorrow to have a look at it and another they have... SO.. What do I look for? I'll spend enough time there to find all the codes (bearing...
