I had the same issue. Using Superglue did fix but for a few time. I did the repair again with bi-component blue epoxy and reinforced the result with ultra-violet resin. Since, non trouble.

I was using Sony WF-1000XM4, very good noice cancelling and ear protection. Now I'm using the new XM5, more comfortable and same protection. I can follow the navigation instruction, listen music (but I usually do not) and communicate with friends along the trip: tested on roads and highways without doors: friends can listen clearly my voice. For communication, I'm using the Midland BTTalk application with friends.

Hi Andrew, As always, an amazing work, thanks a lot. Now I'll spend some time to analyze my modified maps following to these new information. Can't imagine the needed time for these king of research.

Why shouldn't use the Mazda FL22 coolant specified for Mx-5 fitted with Duratec engine?

As Jonathan Kay writes, Some manufacturers are using Evans like coolants: Mazda is using a long life coolant, able to stand 200.000 km or 11 years for the MX5 NC (FL22 engine). This coolant can't be mixed with another one (like Evans).

Hello, here are two pics:

I did change on 2 years basis the foam for several years, nevers seen any issue with it, clear and flexible. However I began a little bit concerned with the pan fixing threads, afraid of threads degradation. I so decided to remove the foam and replace it with a Baffle Hellier (with a modified gasket). Since, I did several long trips like Grandes Alpes, Morvan, ... I never had any issue with: no trouble with the oil pressure, nothing.

Hi Andrew, Thanks for this information. If I have well understood, if injectors are changed from black to blue, the Injector Flow Rate table has to be updated accordingly?

This is also my next schedule: creation of a fuel thank protection. I already made the plans and a template but without taking into account the diffuser part. Some parts will have to be 3D printed for fixing the plate onto the chassis. I'll check for the diffuser aspect.

I forgot: Change from 15' wheel to 13*6/*8 wheels with ZZS Wheel nut changed to aly ones.

Hello, As Wrightpayne, not sure that all where little things... Initially a 1.6K RoadSport. - Installation of SuperSport kit - 4.2.1 VHPD exhaust - Replace plastic inlet manifold by the VVC one + TB 52mm aly. - New Protech shock absorbers+spring. - The most expansive rear brearings: during Grandes Alpes tour, one rear bearing failed. - Once removed, I discovered that there was a big ball in the middle of the car, I decided to unmount it for installing an ATB Quaife LSD. - Then found something near the middle; I remove it for changing the gearbox ratio (BGH E8), the gearbox case has been replaced by an aly one - Then, as the engine an geearbox were out; change the flywheel for the lighwheited one. - All lights converted into led. - Installation of DRL with switchback led (front turn lights are both for DRL and turn lights) - Installation of an oil cooler. - Relocation on calorstat. - Radtech cooler - Installation of shiftlight into the dashboard for a better integration. - Development and installation of an automatic switch light - New brakes provided by Hispec: a nightmare: rear calipers were not plug and play. Rear disk were changed to GT6 ones. - As handbrake system from Hispec is everything but efficient, I manufactured an hydraulic hand brake (just finished right now). - Modification of ECU for passing to a dual maps feature with the help of Revila (great thanks for that). - And the most important add-on was Muttley (Wacky Races), a 3D printed logo: Next project: Passing to a full led rear light plate as from Justaddlightness. All of these mods were made all along the 15 years I own my toy.

Thanks for your reply. Strange, I can't see any self adjuster as it seems that the handbrake assembly is independant from the rest.

Hello, I currently have troubles with the handbrake of the rear Hi-Spec calipers. During the installation of these calipers, I could manage to keep the original Caterham handbrake cables: This allowed me to keep the plastic tightening knob. The handbrake pads are squeaking a lot, especially at low speed (people knows that I'm arriving...) I did adjust the handbrakes according to the Hi-Spec instructions without avoiding the squeaks. Furthermore, the efficiency is very low: for getting the same behavior as the original handbrakes, I have to firmly tighten the cable for getting the handbrake to work (pad then are touching a lot the disks). For avoiding squeaks, I have to loosen the cable and so the handbrake is not functional. Do you have any suggestion for fixing this issue? Thanks for your help. Fred.

Hi Andrew, You already have my strange 1.6 EU3 SuperSport Map whihch is, in fact not a one. Hope this could help you in your exotic maps findings ;) KR, Fred.
