Was your new master cylinder rod that connects to your clutch pedal slightly shorter than the original one? As the short master cylinder ive bought that fits the new line the rod seems to be slightly shorter.
The stop light switch is adjustable and sometimes needs to be pushed forward more. On ones that are worn I have super glued them onto the full in position.
i have a question broski , got a 328i with s52 swap , my clutch felt to the floor durign winter i figured a leak somewhere in the clutch line because master and slave have no leaks , i bleeded the lane it worked perfectly and thoruought a month it dropped again in the garage , thats prob the best mod i should do insted of oem lines ? what you think and nice video mate ! subsribed for more info in the future
Hey! It sounds like air is entering the system somewhere. This line is nice because it eliminates the multiple connection points of the oem line and connects directly from the mast to the slave to simplify things and make issues like this super easy to diagnose. I would make sure the connections are tight otherwise I would be looking at a slave they are the most common failure and do not always leak a lot. Lastly I would replace the master. You have to think most of these components are 20+ years old.
@@EagleMotorWorks yeah you are right I love that you eliminate those and go straight line simple and reliable , i think I’ll go that route and grab myself a new slave while at it it’s only 2 bolts after all
My friend wanted an RX8. The rotary was not something he wanted. He tossed around the idea of a JZ and a V8 but we chatted and I made the suggestion of building an engine I am very familiar with and practically no one has swapped into this chassis. We found three others in the world. So we decided let’s build this twin engine to what I built for my E46 since it is tried and true and hits all the boxes for being unique.
@@EagleMotorWorks I’m also in the process of building a m52 rx8. How are you going about prop etc, I was going to keep the rx8 gearbox and prop or is it easier and better to bmw swap the drivetrain?
@@tylernewman3670 we will have another video soon showing what we did. We used the BMW ZF gear box and swapped in a Ford 8.8 rear end and has a driveshaft made my seemslegitgarage.
@@EagleMotorWorksahh okay I’ve seeen that’s what most of them do in the us with all there swaps. If you’re using that drivetrain set up does that mean you’re engine is sat further forward than it would be running the rx8 original drivetrain?
@@EagleMotorWorks money. It’s the most affordable option i can pick up a rx8 box and engine for about the same as a m52b30 engine and box. And not far off what i can sell the cars current engine and box for
I put same system on my E36 but pedal is way low due to metal L for brake switch. Did you have problem with that and how brake pedal sits compare to gas and clutch pedals ? Also I bled the system 5 times but pedal is still soft first inch or two and onlt than becomes firm and brakes .
@@EagleMotorWorks ahh perfect, I’m going to be going down the same route I’ve got mine all stripped ready to go if and when you make engine mounts can you keep measurements so I can pinch 😂😂
