the RZ with 330mm brakes would be an aftermarket jobber
I bought the original mazda brakes from an actual RZ car and I have physically measured them to be 314mm

Nope - the middle two rotors lobes in the 26b above are 180 degrees opposed with the other lobes at right angles to that.

You couldnt join two 13b shafts to make that shape.

correct me if I\'m wrong but you\'re contradicting yourself

in one post you\'re saying L3 90°  L2 180°
and then in another you are saying Lobe 2 and 3 are 180 degrees opposed
if L2 IS at 180 then L3 would be at 0, so either the specs you\'ve written out are incorrect or that 2 and 3 are at 180 from each other is wrong

the firing order 1-3-2-4 makes the most sense from a balance perspective so the ghetto shaft bit one of them rotated 90 would give you that

I love tshirthell.com

scuttle panel is the plastic bit that sits just in front of the windscreen

how much for a set of boot lid plastics delivered to basingstoke?
and how about scuttle panel plastics with all screws and covers etc.?

loving mine so far, near stock feel (compared with the exedy hyper single that was in there before), haven\'t done any drag starts in mine yet but holds the power with no issues from a rolling start

"When checking exhaust emissions, the engine must be at its normal idle speed and normal operating temperature.
Engine speeds and temperature can be assessed either subjectively or by reference to manufacturer\'s or other reliable data"

you can get them from Halfrauds for about £20 for the pair, or you can get a complete lighting kit by going on ebay and typing "RX7 xenon headlight kit"

I can\'t vouch for the sellers or products on there but £15-16 vs £40 is probably worth taking a chance on?

Xenon bulbs are brighter than halogen and you can get xenon bulbs that are direct replacement for the H4 bulbs you currently have

be careful with HID kits as some only replace main beam and not full beam (you need 2 sets of HID bulbs to replace both functions - my car had a HID kit already fitted when I bought it and now I wish it didn\'t as it only has 1 function)

make sure if you buy a HID kit that it is dual function AND that it will fit an RX7 in place of single H4\'s

xenon bulbs will be direct fit in 5 minutes where as HID will mean re-wiring from the battery and then splicing in to the stock wiring to switch it

weird, my renewal came through from Reis at over £800 with no cover for other vehicles
Sky £595 with other car cover

white Rex\'s with black bonnets look awesome

Ive just had a carbonetics single fitted, rated to 500, so far drives much nicer than the exedy 6 puck that was on there before

Okay, next problem, cant get the counterbalance off, anyone got any tips?

yeah, that\'s what I thought, I\'ll probably keep the counterweight for when I have the money to switch to a twin plate clutch over the winter

having already had to stop and start work for half a dozen other parts, I now have visions of bolts not matching or other parts missing when I come to put the OEM flywheel back on and having to wait for Mazda to get hold of them for me :/

Hi guys,  just pre-empting more problems...

my exedy hyper single clutch died on me, I\'ve bought a replacement RX-7 kit to discover that it\'s for a "standard" pattern flywheel which the exedy one is not

I have a standard flywheel on the way but then I\'ve suddenly got a nasty feeling about what else non-standard was installed or standard was taken off in order to fit the exedy one

has anyone fitted an exedy hyper single and remember what standard parts were removed in order to fit the exedy (e.g. what else am I going to need other than the flywheel itself to put it back to "standard" shape)

I think I\'m right in saying that to fit a "lightened" flywheel you have to fit a balance weight with it, so that will need to come off to put the standard one back on?

any tips greatfully recieved!
