Hello Fellow Roadster enthusiasts.
Thought Id share a recent purchase with you as not seen another set of these clocks before in a roadster either here in the UK or on the internet mx5 photo threads.
I came across them and took a punt. On further investigation I found out they ere genuine Veilside units and pretty rare (even in other Japanese cars). What I like about them is the 10k rpm rev counter and 280 km/h speedo. Useful in my mazdaspeed car with the forged engine or my FM2 car.
Anyhow here is a photo. Whilst they are my function over form and not a nice as some of the other gauges available may interest some of you JDM enthusiasts.

Thanks for looking.
Also some wheel porn. My silver Tuckin 99 N2 car needed its annual inspection test done here in the UK. Before hand took all the wheels off and directional tyres were wrong way round! While off gave them all a good clean. Here is the Fronts. RS Watanabe Type R 16x8.5 -13 offset.
