Re: Idler arm needed asap

Let us know how you get on. Will do mate, it would've flew through the MOT today if I'd even checked the idler arm for play! It's amazing how you overlook certain things! Oh well not be long now. The 20min drive to the mot place and 20 min drive back was great apart from a vague steering which I in...

Re: Idler arm needed asap

Since posting this I've found some in Loughborough and even closer in Nottingham! And I thought it was gonna be a case of getting them from Australia or America! So hopefully I can get them Monday and have my fb on the road, after being off the road for 11years

Idler arm needed asap

Hi all I'm in desperate need for either a good used idler arm, new idler arm or just the bushes, I bought a brand new moog one from rock auto but overlooked the fact that it's for a LHD! And now the car has failed its MOT on the idler arm today, any help would be much appreciated, many thanks

TBH I'm not sure I'd say there a copy of them wheels, all I know is there 15 x 7j et25 and on 185/60/15 hankook tyres, I bought them off eBay as I just loved the look of them! They are one piece wh...

Re: Fast road RX-7 restoration

Really liking your work. I just checked out the website for that Monopoel tank. The stock fuel tank is 55 liters so with your nicely fitted wheel well tank at 41 liters, you'll get nice and friendly with your local gas station sya Cheers mate, I know it's gonna be a bit of a pain at 12mpg or whatev...

Re: Fast road RX-7 restoration

Evening peeps, more pics to follow but here's one after I'd finished routing the battery cable under the car and finishing off the homemade exhaust system complete with side exit, it's a bit loud but sounds great and gets rather hot quick!
