Congrats Vincenxo - welcome to the addiction. The scuttle shake is most noticeable in cars without underbody bracing. If you look under a new model and then look under yours, you will see many opportunities to lighten your wallet which will improve the cars rigidity. Talk to the club guys and they'll no doubt show you which ones to get. www.mx5mania.com.au sell many of them too.

Used to drive a mates one every now and again (and had a deposit on it at one stage). 186kw atw from a 1.6L using the AVO kit with forged internals was pretty stout. Ran a low 1.06 at Wakefield with some suspension, tyre and brake mods too.Originally posted by edoI thought AVO was code for suicide bomber...Im sure a monkey can do better."If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough horsepower." - Mark Donahue Penske Porsche 917
