Just fround paper wwork had new engine fitted 30k miles ago

The car wont be broken only the extras sold off then the car compleate at a lower price once the extras are sold off as in total want 1200 for the lot. Just better if was in one go rather than me having to list all bits separately taking up more time.

Link to car on ebay.

Im after a semi quick sale I dont want to brake it or split the bits up as dont want to be left with a semi stripped shell. Its worth someones time to stip and sell.
But not selling compleate for less than 1200 if have to car will go as is stripped and every extra will be sold to make diffrance just a lot of listing would rather someone had chance to have some fun with it.

Forgot to add the suspension and shocks on car are all perfect bought replacements so could put bush kit on and just swap over and still have good replacement parts.

Decided as we have too many cars 5 with new car on way need to down size numbers. My insurance has changed so no longer can insure all my cars so selling the rx7 project car sad times.
The has now been sat for a year at our house slowly acquiring parts.
Over the winter I had all the drives side sill cut removed any rust and welded plate put in I have used 2.5mm plate so much thicker and stronger than the normal tin plate used this was all heated bent and welded.
The car runs perfect and is run up every month while been sat.
With new rear disc and pads and a pass side tail light and 2 mirrors although I do have usa mazda aero mirrors modified to work for right hand drive. shouldnt have a problem being moted.
I have a full set of replacement wishbones front and back rear and drive shafts. I have replacement rear subframe with good bushes.
I have a full bush kit for the car + arb droplink covers.
There is a set of tien hr coilovers that were sent off and new seals put in. These do need the adjuster ring buying these are £12 + vat each need 3 per shock as there spring rate adjustable with separate hight adjusted
The car has a bolt in 4 point cage bolted but never got round to welding in
Has the rear seats removed with bins and carpet inported from usa along with 2 mazda aero mirrors modified to work for right hand drive.
The car has a tiny bit of rust on sunroof. Sunroof is fully working last time I tried to use it.
It has faded red paintwork but that never bothered me.
Has full turbo 2 body kit as standard bit front lip is broken in middle. Wings are very solid and rust free have seen some with loads of rust. When did welding over winter there was no other rust I noticed.
Has new tyres all round on stock clean alloys
Has uprated rad with electric converted fans. Air pump removed. Perfect working turbo (happy to say this ill even show anyone who come to see the car and questions it)
Has turbo back 3 inch single system + 3 inch turbo - cat  then split 2.5 inch twin system
Electronic boost controler
Good stage 1 clutch in boot
There is loads more so much to list ill add pics later
Im after £1200 for everything on or for the car it will need to be trailered but if you bring rear disc and pads 2 mirrors and pass side rear light can be driven away on trade plates without a problem.
Please email or text or ring for more info or to come look
Its nice are with lots of bits and good running engine im not going to give it away for less than 1200 I have all the time in the world to sell this car.

Groved discs clean the serface of the pad slightly when braking helps stop them fromg getting that really glazeing

Drilled discs help vent the heat away when braking from the area the pad is in contact with.

You dont what hundreds of groves otherwise it turns the disc into a razor and cuts the pad too much about 6-8 is plenty
Same with holes too many and the brakes stay too cold and wont keep heat in needed for race pads ect to work there best.

Best combination is normal a 6-8 grove and vented disc provided you keep the pads hot enought if too cold just go for groved as they do vent some heat away but there main design is to stop glazing on good quality pads they shouldnt glaze

Hi guys just after a bit of help maybe a case of try and adjust till im happy

Got tien hr coilovers
With adjustable spring load
Separate hight
And rebound
front and rear camber adjust

Just wanted to get an idea of what you guys have roughly setup to get a good base to start from

Car has wheel and suspension wise
350mm front discs on 4 pots and 310 rx8 calipers rear on 18s with 235/40/18 front 305/40/18 rear
Full bush kit front and rear with custom bushes rear where was ball type before (every joint is now uprated not just the kit you can buy) rear has anti steer

will have full wide arch kit with cut down stock rear aches so hight isnt an issue but I don\'t want her slammed want it so arches are about 1 - 1/2 inch clear how wheels

I only intend to use car for track days maybe odd dirft and some sunday driving

Any help would be good.

Well all started when I got some free 4 pot radial front calipers for free so thought I would use them, next came was whats the biggest brakes that will fit under my 18 inch wheels now the backs look a bit small compared to the test front hub at my brother in laws work. So want to do something with the back as looks like its got drums on the back lol

Finally got round to doing something on the rears.
Im looking at going for bigger discs and brakes.
Questions new brackets ect arnt a problem can get these made.
Stick with stock calipers on bigger disc?
Put fd calipers?
Put on rx8 caliper and discs on?
Crap setup and find bigger single handbrake caliper and big discs?
I dont really want to mess the brake ballance up to much but im running 350mm on front with brembo 4 pots so back looks crap as is.
My main idea was rx8 calipers and discs as there 308 but have found a set of 320mm discs that fit the rx8 caliper.
Would love to go 2 pot but no one makes 2 pots with handbrake built in except for old cars like 75 but not sure how easy that would be.

Wow lots of welding I have a 2p hole in the cill where i lowered the ramp on a screwdriver that got stuck in a ramp.

Turbo technics in Northampton are good there will rebuild old turbo build you a hybrid or custom one they also do component and vhs balancing where some places dont do vhs balancing. There good prices too.

Quick question upgrading the fuel system on my 90 fc im got prim stock injectors and seconds are 1000cc only hoping for 350-400 but later may wanna go more hence a larger secondary.
Fuel pumps I have a wilbro 250 in but going to swap to secondary tank and inline pump too question is it better to run a separate fuel line to prims and seconds using 2 inline pumps a lower power pump for prime and high power pump for seconds or just run 1 high pump?

Ecu wise im going to be running a greddy emanange ultimate with all bells so get fuel ignition and afm removal.

My swerl pot has 1 input main fuel 2 main out puts 2 injector return pipes and 2 tank returns. So pot is geared to either setup think it came off a v8 setup why I went for it incase I needed 2 pumps.

The centre would need boring out not a prob as my wife brother has a digital machine at work for doing this.
The hight of the disc is shorter so the disc will sit further out but I have spacers on snyways as I have a wide arch kit going on again not a problem as gives more room for making a bracket for the calipers.

Ive just been looking around to see who makes a big stock disc with the 5x114.3 stud pattern this way if in the future I cant get hold of a set og lightweight discs I can always just buy a stock disc.

Hi guys im sorting out my brake conversion I so far have

18" alloys
330mm calipers radial not lug mount so bracket is easy to make

My question the calipers are brembos off a alfa gta but im after a disc I can just bolt on dont mind some machineing of the centre but not of the bolt holes

Closest 2 discs with 114.3 patern and 32mm wide are evo 8 at 320mm or 370z at 350mm

Othes are around the 323 mark but only 30mm wide

Will the 370z discs fit in a 18" wheel as there 19" stock on 370Z Im happy to place fit in wheel but dont wanna have to buy a disc thats no use to me. Or am I better off using a 320-324mm which I know fit in 17" as I know I can go to at least 330mm with the wheels.

Only prob I can see is getting a good spark from a small hole but seams interesting
