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

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

breaks were from a j p s, cost alot don't ask

 

i finnaly got around to getting the friggen box out, bit of a pain in the ass as the fella who did my exhaust cut the flange for the engine pipe so i had to sort of lift it over the exhaust, was harder than it should have been, other thatn that it was pretty good

 

and the clutch was pretty mutch munted no dammage to it just pretty mutch worn flat, and really really shinny,

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

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
