  1. I had the same concern for months and I ended up ordering the MK Indy. So if we look at all three you have a few things to consider. Based on complaints, my own experience and statements from others, I think it falls out like this. 1. Quality of kit - Westfield - MNR - Mk Indy 2. Flexibility of the kit - MK Indy - MNR - Westfield 3. Cost of Kit - MK and MNR are about the same - Westfield - more money, but talk to the local dealers before you close your eyes to the higher cost. I ordered my MK in December, it has not yet left the UK. The delay is understandable and I am okay with it (for now). The main reason for the delay is the high demand for the kit. Even though I have rated MNR above pretty much on par with MK. The MK kit has a UK race proven history, many have raced it. 4. Looks (come on you gotta like how it looks) this is more my opinion than anything else. - MK - Westfield - MNR If I had to place an order again today, I might have paid the extra couple thousand and ordered a Westfield. Note, - I have had very little to do with MNR, but I have order some parts from Westfield for my MK Kit (somethings are compatible). One more thing, the MK Kit with Miata gear will be a small issue, I ordered it, but with the Sierra differential. The ratio needed for the Hayabusa is not available in the Miata differential and the drive-shaft has to be 2 pieces. So my final order was the Miata suspension and Sierra drive train. I will have to have a custom set of half shafts built. I wanted the flexibility of going to a Miata engine in the future and not have to deal with the lack of Sierra parts in the US. Hope this helps and not make it worse
  2. Has anyone looked and Braile? http://www.braillebattery.com/index.php/batteries/b129/#
  3. Anyone out there running a Hayabusa that has pulled a freeze plug to put in a second water temp sensor? Would love to know the size and pitch. My dash gauge needs a specific sensor, its different than the stock sensor. The ECU uses the stock sensor to adjust richness (when cold etc), so I do not want to mess with that one.
  4. Thanks, I have been looking for one of these
  5. Thanks -- I will check those

  7. I have order my MK kit from the UK, expecting it to be ready in about 2 weeks. Trying to get a better shipping quote. Can anyone use a freight carrier from the UK?
  8. Who makes those seats, they look pretty nice
  9. I have been looking at the various kits available with the option of putting in a Hayabusa engine. When comparing I have narrowed down to the Westfield and the MK Indy R. From what I can tell, The big differences are The price - MK is almost half (yes with Refurbished parts) The Manual - Westfield much more detail Apart from that, if you have a MK Indy are you happy. Would you build one again. Compared to a Westfield, how is the fit and finish.
