I cant apply for my IVA yet because of my VIN number. I emailed the MASET team a couple of weeks ago. Quote:

Well I have my new VIN now so ill get it welded in and Apply for my IVA.
I have been trying to tidy some stuff up too. I covered my MX5 steering wheel pad with red leather to match the dash centre and laser engraved a horn push logo onto it. It fits pretty well and a 150mm radius cant contact the remaining spokes so should be good for IVA as they use a 165mm ball. Ill take the MX5 wheel with me just in case they try and pull the 'not permanent' thing, but I would argue who would go to all the trouble for something they weren't going to leave on! Also been working on a COP tie down for the valve cover. Its very handy having a laser cutter to be able to make card templates before commiting it to metal! Cheers Stot

You may/may not have a problem with a welded on VIN No,its supposed to be not easily removable and part of the chassis I believe.

Ive fully welded it. I did it like Skov, cut out a piece and welded in a piece.
Cheers Stot.

If it was me I would put the Mazda steering wheel on. While yours looks fine, I think the inspector 'judges' a lot by looking at the car. When I took mine for IVA, he immediately remarked on the rubber trim everyhwere, when he actually got the tool out - he walked around the car once and put the tool back in the cupboard without using it. Oh I also found that a mint assortment helped the inspection process as well......

I made myself a corner scale yesterday.
Using the area of the piston you can work out the Display PSI>Actual Pounds>Actual Kilos. Each PSI segment on this one is 6.4kg and you can easilly read 1/2 segments, so a ~3kg resolution upto 320kg. Total cost was about £30 including 1/4" BSP taps that I can use for other projects. I could make another 3 of these for £20 each and do all the corner weights all at the same time, and even use the jacks to level off before reading. Cheers Stot

Tried it out today, the car was on a slight rearward slope but it was a general weight I wanted at this point. Front Driver - 520PSI = 165kg Front Passenger - 500PSI = 159kg Rear Driver - 470PSI = 149kg Rear Passenger - 470PSI = 149kg So an all up weight of 622kg isn't bad. Cheers Stot
