It’s kinda a pain to be honest. I did a rear brake conversion recently on a zx3. I kinda wish I recorded it. First you need to replace the entire ebrake cable which means you need to drop the exhaust to get to it. Then you need to swap the hard brake lines going to the drum to flexible lines. It’s probably easiest to replace the entire assembly hub and brake. To get the assembly out it’s 3 bolts in the back side holding it on. I had to disconnect the lower arm and remove the rear springs to get easy access to it. Once the assembly is out just bolt the new one in and connect the lines and cables then proceed to bleed the brakes. Find me on Instagram and send me a message I will see what pictures I got.
Not to mention parts for that motor are mad difficult to obtain. Thats not me bashing the car. Beautiful car and that engine has potential. Just a shame. Still want me a ZX5 SVT. Think my son and I would have a blast in one not to mention 4 doors for the family car excuse 😆
@@CasualGaming76 The 170PS 2.0-litre Duratec ST engine has been developed from the standard 130PS 2.0-litre Ford Focus engine with several new features, including: New, high-flow aluminium cylinder head with larger inlet valves and higher lift intake and exhaust camshafts for higher peak rpm levels Continuously variable intake valve timing High compression, cast-aluminium pistons and forged steel connecting rods Dual mass flywheel New dual state intake (DSI) manifold, using long runners for low-end torque and shorter runners for higher peak power outputs Larger bore free-flowing stainless steel exhaust system, tuned for enhanced performance sound. A new, high-flow aluminium cylinder head with enlarged inlet ports, larger inlet valves and higher lift intake and exhaust camshafts for higher peak rpm levels Continuously variable intake valve timing A new dual-stage intake (DSI) manifold that uses long runners for low-end torque and shorter runners at higher revs for better peak power output A 65 mm large-bore, stainless steel tubular exhaust system with less restrictive catalytic converters.
