Turning my FIRST car into my DREAM car in just 1 WEEK

If you are a long-term watcher of the channel, you will all know Josh's NA Mazda MX5 turbo. It's been driven to death by Chris Rudnik, Nightride and many more over the years and it ended up absolutely wrecked. This MX5 runs about 320bhp with a Subaru Impreza turbo and Link ECU among many other mods. It was time this car (Josh's first ever RWD car) was restored, but we only gave him a week to get the MX5 transformed...

    One hell of a makeover in a week, Wayne and Craig smashed it, and everyone else who helped definitely put your flavour in to it.

    Enjoy the extra tyre life and the extra grip with those knuckles and arms. They are 40mm drop so you will need to raise it 40mm. Keep any eye out for the wheel and the bottom hub bolt any 15" with et10 or less it gets clvery close

    in my opinion, Black Rhino was an amazing looking car, but this new and improved T-Flame looks absolutely amazing Josh, well done on all the hard work! Cannot wait to see it tomorrow at the invitational in person!

    Small mistake on the mystery boxes, if not I'll be happy boy though. It's €150 for €200 of stuff +2 entries is on the site rather than the €250+2 entries you said. Just an FYI to anyone not aware. Class work on the car.. Would love to see you guys do a few more builds like this. Maybe as give-away cars, maybe as personal car but a nuts and bolts re-build but that will take something that if left alone will ony degrade and make it good for another 30+ years of use and some abuse. Maybe not such a rushed schedule tho.. But still a quick turn-around once all the bits needed are gathered and ducks lined up, just with enough time for sleep and such.

    I love Miatas, NB and NDs especially, but the NA is a classic for sure. This is a killer build, love the colors, hope that little engine keeps going for ya! If not some built internals or maybe a K swap? Mazda also made one of if not the smallest production V6 for passenger cars (Mazda K series V6, 1.8l. not the K I was speaking about above lol) , would be a crazy engine to use hahah. Here's to T- flame!

    The car looks AWESOME!!! Definitely came together beautifully!!! Not sure about the yellow wheels but that’s my opinion! Which doesn’t mean anything cause it’s not my car! But as for a Josh car it’s Perfect!!!! Can’t wait to see what’s next!!!! Great Job Guys!!! Truly Great Friends Are Hard To Find!!!! Usually they’re like a blister only come out when the work is done!! 😂

    Sure hope you primered underneath before you raptor lined it. If not, it will become very rusty and it will eventually pop off and expose the huge disaster. Its rubberized coating, it doesn't fully bond to bare metal. Hot, cold weather will make the metal sweat, then boom, you have a mess of rust
