ae174agze Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) cheers man today i found out that my LCA had drawn a nice big round scrach picture drawn into the back of my break disk, after i took it for a drive thaught i might show you how i fixed it with a sledge hammer :dance: started by jacking the sucker up and taken the wheel off, safty first, jack it brick it with the wheels off i was able to get the 25mm bolt on spacers off got the spacer off and undid the nuts that hold the calliper on whitch ended up like this, then wedged off the cover thingo and undid the nut on the bareing pulled the hub and disk off and fliped it over to see that the LCA had gorn to town on the back of the disk so i got a sledge hammer and tapped the edging in, just enough so the disk wont touch, friend good help aye :S put the sucker back together and where good to go theres probably 7mm gap now so no touching on the break disk this has to be done if you do the rx7 4spot conversion, i found out the hard way, might have to get a new set of disks posten this up just to let you know, cheers fellas Edited October 25, 2009 by ae174agze Quote

ae174agze Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Posted October 27, 2009 on closer inspection today i found that i think a seal in the clutch master gave out not the actual clutch itself the clutch will be changed anyway as it was a little worn out with normal driving also what clutch fluid would you recommend, Quote

ae174agze Posted December 11, 2009 Author Report Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) quick update, very happy with it been driving it heaps very very fun with the suspension and breaks only had small problem with the dizzy, the spark was breaking down underload so we just replaced the point gaper thingie. the old one was slightly tapered at the bottem and wasnt makeing full contact and now its revving clean just running a little ritch what do you gap the point to, we set it to 14 thow is this too much too less, it seems to be running very well tho cheers Edited December 11, 2009 by ae174agze Quote
Evan G Posted December 11, 2009 Report Posted December 11, 2009 you need a multimeter with the dwell option, remove the coil lead, get a mate to crank it while you change the gap till its to the specified value. Quote
ae174agze Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Posted February 4, 2010 got a few cool pics from the other nite cars running well now, no problems hasnt broken down at all i think the alternator is on its way out, when i'm driving during the day its all good soon as i put the lights on at night the spark breaks down under load so i think i may need a new one pretty soon Quote
