rebleed the brakes. if you did in the first place. if not, bleed then for the first time.

girlcrazy_420 08-06-2008 09:23 AM

I've bled them on 2 seperate occasions and another 2 times with the new calipers. Also replaced the rear wheel cylinders the first time around. Its going in for an alignment today and if that dosnt fix it mabye there is a broken belt in one of the tires? Guys on the mazda forum are saying it may be "bumpsteer" and the steering components are at weird angles or rubbing against eachother. I dissagree as I'm not lowered all that much.

werd.

my next suggestion would be a master cylinder/ brake proportion valve

girlcrazy_420 08-06-2008 04:17 PM

turns out it was a bad alignment. OK tire took care of that. They said they almost couldnt do it because the tie-rods where angling wrong due to being lowered. Drives a little to the right now, but is good on the hwy and dosnt get bumpsteer anymore.

Several days ago, modded an 88 Toyota Cressida into my driveway for $900.

Today, modded an LSD diff from a wrecker Cressy into my garage for tear down and rebuild!

other day was plugs, rotor, fuel filter and s2000 oil filter and 10 30 castrol gtx. danny says the car smokes less than before so i guess gtx will be in the car rather than 5 30 bulk oil from work...

My truck told me it wanted a new headgasket tonite, but this leaves me at what should I do. Spend $30 and slap a gasket onto it, or get the complete head-set, re-surface the head, valve-seals, head-bolts etc Or... 302 :evil

underscore 08-22-2008 09:24 AM

Pulled the head off and looks like it needs to be machined/cleaned. I was going to get ok engine rebuilders to do the work.

Big Daddy 08-22-2008 02:29 PM

Pulled the 440, swapped some parts onto the 400 and put the 400 in...having some issues lining things up, it's pissing me off so it's on hold until Sunday before I break something.

mark88 08-22-2008 03:59 PM

is this directed to me? if so, the car is going under heavy 'renovations' this year, new carpet, possibly new front seats, custom fiberglassed sub box for rear seat area and installing my car computer, that's just the upcoming interior mods though.
