I don't think they were actually in too bad nick considering their age! MR2 ones were worse and they were much newer. Nissan seem to paint every part from stock, there is VERY little on the car that's not painted which has helped protect from corrosion (you can see silver paint in the 1st pic).

As I mentioned, I have lost a brake pad. According to Bigg Red they only received the calipers with 3 pads in, and I used a different box to transport them home from the unit than the one I posted them in (which I have long since binned) which is where I suspect the missing pad is. I've ordered a new set from Camskill but they won't turn up for Monday.

that's bad luck. Are you sure you don't want to do a 5 stud conversion? I can't imagine it would take that much to put brakes from an S14 on there or something.

Absolutely positive. I don't want to have to get custom driveshafts made thanks Smile It would involve changing all the wheels for larger ones too.

YAY the beast lives another year.

totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"

The ZX Coupé hit 60,000 miles today. According to the book, that's timing belt and coolant. It needs a clutch too, best to replace the coolant while the timing belt's off, and it needs a ruddy good service all round really. From the workshop manual the timing belt looks ridiculously easy to change, not so sure about the clutch though...

Debating whether all that will be easier with the engine out!! And if so, I need to get the engine in the RX7 a lot quicker than I am doing so!
