I see you've decided to use new mx-5 track rod ends. How's the clearance with the wishbone and steering boot now? And also may I ask, where did you get your extensions from? I'm waiting on a pair from NTS but I don't seem to be very lucky at being able to get hold of Nathan.

Hi Chris, my extensions came from NTS, and the track rod ends are the same ones I've had all along - the ones on the donor were knackered and I had to angle grind one of them off the upright!
I've still got my dodgy lock stops on the rack, so clearance is fine  I've rumours that Nathan has redesigned the top wishbones to improve clearance, but haven't seen any evidence of it yet (it might have been Johno that mentioned it to me). Didn't Nathan put a post up the other day to say he'd switched his phone and email off for a while to avoid distractions and concentrate on clearing the backlog of work he has?

Don't think I'm quite ready for the IVA test, lol
I was aiming for about this time next year! I did have 2.9 turns lock to lock - I've now got about 2. Going to have fun doing 15-point turns everytime I need to do a U-turn

Made a start on the wiring this week, and fitted the tunnel loom:
    Does that look ok for IVA?
