A freshly repainted and fully NSW-engineered Cosworth / Flyin' Miata supercharged NC MX5, with distinctive number plate MX51NC. This is a unique mini-muscle car with over 200hp at the wheels that turns heads with its classic supercharger whine.
Running through all the upgrades to this car has been an eye-opening process...around $45,000 in replacement value for parts and labour, not including the car. Key recent upgrades beyond the supercharger include Ohlins coilovers, a full closed door respray in 2023, NC2 front end upgrade and much more - see below for details.
No expense has been spared in upgrading and maintaining this car.
