picked up my front brakes over the weekend and fitted the calipers , Mk 4 RX7 Mazda, only to find that they foul on the wheel , will need to get some 10mm spacers made up, they only just catch on a small casting protrusion , so being the wise one i thought i'd grind it off , WRONG move, as now i have a 3mm hole in the side of the caliper to repair, bugger,
also finaly committed myself to an engine , i have chosen to stay with Subaru but have gone for an Eg 3.3cc 6 cyl out of a 95 SVX, for a number of reasons,
light weight, only 140kg complete fully dressed
250hp, in N/A stock form, huge torque
is basicly a 2.2ltre, 4cyl engine with 2 extra cyls added on, so turbo pistons etc a cheap and viable option,
try 400hp at wheels with 10lb boost on stock internals,
will mate up to existing trans
and the best part Damn cheap
pic is of actual engine i have bought
let the games begin.
cheers John
