Noob with a new mx5 Saturn build.

Thanks Gary, yes I'm getting happier with as each new bit goes on.

Does anyone know if Caterham rear wings/arches have the same mounting flange dimensions as the Haynes arches?

So my nice shiny new shocks arrived today which means I can set the geometry up a lot better and hopefully get my head around bump steer.

This brought back an issue I identified a while ago with my rear uprights and their upper bushes. My poly bushes are incredibly stiff when everything is done up tight. By tight I mean I can stand on the hub with no shock fitted and can't budge it downwards at all. With its bolt slackened off all is well so I might look for a better bush if anyone has any suggestions?

I also can't tell you how relieved I was to find my shocks mounts all line up!

Is it the bush in the hub nipping up? I know Talon does a bush for the hub I got a pair for mine not fitted yet though.

They're the ones I have

That don't give me much hope although I can't see me being anywhere close anytime soon

Well I've ordered a different make but failing that I may turn some up from Delrin.

Air intake.





That filter is complete garbage though and hits the underside of the nose so I have a straight rather than tapered filter on the way.
