Just discovered this channel and saw it came to an abrupt stop. Brilliant content, good and honest unlike the over produced and scripted stuff we're seeing now. Hope all is ok with Phil
Brake master cylinder? Yeah HC 929. Just bent the lines a bit for it to fit. HB ones are near impossible to get these days. If you join the HB HC 929 and cosmo group on Facebook one of the admins Anthony is currently looking into using s13 stuff as its looks quite easy to interchange. Some great info there
Thanks mate, yeah I've searched high and low so was thrilled when you pointed to the hc one in your video based on that I ordered the US HC brake master, 1/3 the price and port on front top is on the right side instead so should be less pipe bending involved. Also less to buy than resleeve of the HB one.
@@Phil_Bennett yeah, Been posting in FB group, it's got a lot of work required due to sitting in a garage for years but the body is pretty straight, good interior and 125000km, just needs some love and paint.
This car got wrecked out and the FC was sold, and ended up being written off, wasn't the guys fault either someone pulled out in front of him. Shame to think both these nice Mazda's are gone 😢
Yeah mate really to find genuine cosmo's down here. Black 12at just the brochure... My dream car 😍 but this is as close as I'll get haha, love this car
Hey bro! just been working heaps, wagon needs some stuff fixing and I haven't been really motivated to make any videos tbh. Maybe I'll get back into it but I'm not sure
In relation to the struts, I've got custom adapter plates for the strut towers to run rx7 coilovers/struts, is there a certain brand/suspension setup you recommend? Obviously a rx7 is about a 200kg lighter car so I found my struts bottom out pretty easily unless I slam the car to the ground to give it more travel.
RX7 ones are fine as long as they are base height adjustable, or else the car ends up too slammed. As for the weight, it shouldn't matter as you can change/select spring rates, 6kg, 8kg 10kg etc Shockworks are doing awesome stuff at the moment, Tien, even the ebay ones are actually alright but not that cheap anymore
S4/5 Mid mounts, cut factory piston mounts off k-member, use an existing hole on drivers side with factory S4/5 mount, make up a bracket from some flat bar for the passenger side
Only custom made for the front, same as rx3 so semi easy to get coilover/brake upgrades for them. Rear is leaf spring, so only way is by doing a full custom 4 link rear end
rotor swap , no back seat - weld the rear doors shut , remove rear side glass and sheet steel over turning it into a panel van , paint a big mural on the side - probs wizard / dragon combo or warrior dude with naked chicks and tigers .. looks mint
