I semi retract my comment. For some reason I thought u were talking about NA (Gen 1) MX-5. I dunno NC performance lol. Time to sleep lol

Adrian we need to organise another track event
Ill be bringing my a game and my turbo ;)

But I'm sure you guys will destroy me on yor nas
Not sure if ill have learnt to drive it hard enough by jan ahaha

Adrian,
Will Grilo was doing 15's at the MTC in a  completely stock FT86 so its not a lot different to your car. You car does have some minor mods but still quite close stock. I hope you can get out there for a few sprints and a few days at EC. It would be a nice change for you.
Ethan,
Make sure you fit an oil cooler and improve intake temps if your hitting the track. Two most important things to do.
 
 

I've been looking into getting an oil cooler as well. Should get on it soon haha.
 
Stock NA and NB are a second or so slower than an sw20. I've driven my brothers NA6 and it's just got no guts at all haha. Handles really nice. You can really adjust the attitude of the car through the corner. Only need to change your inputs slightly to get it drift or understeer. Whereas with my car you need to be a bit more intent to get the car to change stance.
 
My car did a 15.1 when it was completely stock. Motor magazine ran a 13.5 with a stock 86 so they're a little bit ahead.
 
Yeah Ethan let me know if you want to organise a track day. Alternatively, I should be at every Circuit Club event so have a look at the calendar and let me know if you want to book a date in. Another track is MDTC in Marulan. I haven't been to in ages. It's about half an hour closer than wakefield. It's a small, slow and twisty track so it's a great training track. Pretty keen to do an open day there some time.

The cams super sprint record for a somewhat modified car limited to tyres/wheels, bolt on suspension and engine parts with the engine under 2000cc is like a 1:06 or 7 at wakefield, pretty sure it was a lotus exige with an na engine.
 
Also two s2000s that were doing 1:07s, some great vids of them:

They have A050s, headers and exhaust(about 150rwkw i think), intake and lots of suspension work including $5000 moton shocks...and good drivers!

Damn can't compete with that. I reckon even with expensive trick suspension, A050's and some engine work you'd be hard pressed to get an NA sw20 under 1'10. Maybe with a worked Beams pulling similar power to an s2000 but would be pretty difficult with a regular 3sge.

I think if you spent similar time and money setting up the suspension and used a050s or hankooks you could get under 1:10 with a standard beams engine.
 
S2000 is just a better car though, double wishbone suspension all-round, great engine and gearbox with very quick gearing when you use an aftermarket final drive. Not to mention it's a honda so sooo many parts available for it.
 
Much more expensive than an mr2 though! The lotus exige/elise is in another class again over the honda, and again much more expensive than the s2000.

Hmm I wonder what a 2ZZ MR-S would run...

Yeah Adrian chuck me an address for that circuit club wouldn't mind joining up use this cams licence of mine that I barely use ahah
But yeah I think with a worked engine you could get under 1.10

S2000 would be pretty good but most Hondas make zero power until 5000rpm ha

Yeah I need a cooler wouldn't mind doing water injection aswell
Before a track day just to deal with heat soak a bit more
And to help stop my pistons melting under constant boost
But it should by January have a decent setup already :)
Be good to catch up adrian

Yeah would be awesome to catch up. Can't believe it's already been 3 months since we all met up. Here's the website for Circuit Club- www.circuitclub.com.au. Next event is on Anzac Day. It's a thursday I think- public holiday.
 
S2000's actually have great torque down low. It pulls harder than a gen 3 3sge everywhere. Then at 7000rpm when I need to change gear the s2k has another 2000rpm to go. A 2zz MRS would be excellent. Should go toe to toe with an s2k no problems. With a bit of extra work there's no reason why it wouldn't match a lotus either.
