I dont have what you require , but its nice to see someone else local on here

[alex1916v]

[alex1916v]

yeah, just read that thread about him spining out on the motorway... eeek!

do you know any local-ish spares places?

[grinder]

not really .. i take it you have tried Pip @ WGT ?

I still have the 13b parts from the ill fated FB, you more than welcome to have a browse. I\'m not far away at all (which makes a very nice change !)

I\'m not sure who would have one TBH, may be a rockauto, mazdatrix kind of thing from USA.

hi dude, yeah it\'ll proberbly end up comign from USA and i get bummed on the postage...

they are even rarer as, isnt it a perfomance upgrade to fit a lightend flywheel to these little revving engines, and since the stock counterwieght is cast into the factory flywheel,  \'they\' all need the automatic\'s counterweight??

cheers for any help, if anyone could change the title of this thread to
** 13B FC counter weight needed **

that would be great!

cheers

[grinder]

Ohhh you have a FC .. where are the pics

And i will sort the title for you

[shaunwil]

Looking on mazdatrix its a good chance I have one (and one that\'s stu\'s) if the manual and auto are the same part !

[alex1916v]

the need for the rear counterweight is, i wont be using the manual engines flywheel in my conversion, ill be using a modified vw flywheel with the centre of a 13B but the outer ring gear/clutch face for a vw





since the stock maual engined rear counterweight is cast into the stock flywheel (which im not using) i have to use the counterweight off a automatic transmission car, which also didnt use a flywheel etc...

so i need on ASAP really, no major rush as ive got the adaptor plate and the engine for mock up, but when i want to run it up ill need the counterweight so id rather sat on my shelf waiting than me waiting for it... ive tried my local Mazda place, they are gonna get back to me tomorrow, but i doubt its available  new.



as for my doner vehical, all the pics and 2 vids of the FC are here...

it looks to only be missing the front bumper and both front wings, other than that its a real shame to break as its only a 2 owner car from new, full Mazda service history (up to 96!) everything works too... typical i hate killing cars too!

anyway ill be taking the engine and all the engine related ancillaries to make it run... but probably losing all the EFI stuff in favour for good old fashioned points/dissy/carb etc... (which im hoping 12A\'s were?!!!)

so everything\'s for sale, cheap too, ideally id like what it cost me to get it back!! or if you want to buy the whole car, i have the V5, then PM or email me

gonna make a advert for it now...

cheers
