the 5 speed is an mx5 unit i think he says, so basically that 1 wont be so great lol

hes really knowledgeable on all things mazda, and has done conversions to run rx7 lumps in rx8s, retaining the rx8 ecu and piggybacking it with standalone etc. plus he is involved with a lot of the big power drag rx7s in the country. hes birmingham based aswell martin, may be a good contact for any info or bits your after?
Could you pm me his contact info??
