hi all,
after having boost problems whereby the car would not boost above 0.2 bar or barely at all i checked a few things and found a broken check valve under the pressure tank!
i have no time its sunday afternoon and i need the car!
please please please help! i will travel etc if someone has one that i can have today! i\'m in luton and i can only get around today with the help of a friend so i need one today,
my number is 07737 257 377 and its a 3rd gen fd and its the valve coming off the right of the pink tank in the picture on the link - http://www.autosportracetech.com/RX-7/vacuum.jpg
its actually black and behind the alternator
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!

just replied to your wanted ad, it will get you going at least.

thanks matt appreciate your feedback - was hoping there would be one i could borrow for the time being because i need to get all the piping on top of the pressure chamber on before i use so it is immobile.
i will definately use your method unless someone has one nearby, who know miracle could occur - but does seem i\'m the only rex owner for miles,
when ordering new ones where do i go? mazda? american guy (noticed him in the forum)?
thanks again and if anyone has any recomendation as to where to buy i would be grateful,
Tharek
these (http://www.clubrx.org/default.asp?id=8&ACT=5&content=26&mnu=8)are what i used
I have these fitted two with no Problems.
:Thumbs-up thanks for the input guys,
have done the research and those check valves are the best way to go and the best value but one big question...
does nobody have them here!!! :(
i have hunted and hunted allbeit on a sunday but i just want one or a few but i cant wait the one or two weeks to get them from the states, i have no choice but to fix for the time being so it is usable as 1. it will attract attention parked on the street + 2. my only car,
very frustrated over a small thing but i am hoping that somehow i will find one tommorow otherwise i may have to reluctantly borrow the dual throttle one.
i do appreciate your comments a great deal
i got one if you want to borrow it....im in Hrrow though so youd have to come and get it
i am there! i need to go to london tommorow to buy a fto so thats my only chance of a lift.
my email is m4dsup@hotmail.co.uk - i will collect whenever you are free to do so... and will be good to meet you its been a good laugh meeting you guys so far - i will order or hopefully locate one asap and i will send it back to ou no probs
since i have bought the rex (3 weeks) i have spent 1400 quid and first i had a small oil leak and no pads so i took it easy now i have fixed them i cant go...
although it is draining me mentally and financially i cant say i regret it just cant wait to actually put my foot down and enjoy it for the first time!
thanks all for your input - this club is half of the reason for buying the car
mail sent!
anyone know of anywhere in the uk to get Check valves?
also how many would you advise getting?
is it a case of if it aint broke dont fix it or replace em all? have you guys replaced them with all new ones?
