Ken - how does he know ure last name? do u even know the guy?

Wouldn't know if I knew him or not.

Ahh , the wonders of the faceless internet, where people can say what they like without fer and then disappear...

This is why I asked him for his real name.

Unfortunately , I am known by a lot of people in, and on the fringes of motorsport which sometimes is not a good thing

Cheers

Ken:(

you know what i really would like to do ..... i would somehow like to buy my ZX off my folks ..... do a manual conversion on it ....and learn how to drift it ..... that car would make a mint drift car ..... it would be my version of a Racer :D ............... must find money first :D

Hmm , that would be expensive and prooly not worth the drama.

You can buy those in Japland with an RB20 engine in already ( Jash has one ).

Now that would be cool:D and no injector/wiring issues

Niz - someone offered me a 11sec rotor for 20k :D kewl car to run around in eh? not sure my parents would like it though, showed my mum the car and she freaked out

Only if it was in a series 6 or better RX7.

In an RX4 or 3 then don't bother, it would take a lot to make it stop or handle.

Cheers

its not just a matter of doing a manual conversion? needs whole new engine ......

but that car has sooo much potential and i doubt anyone else is going to realise it ..... and i just cant part with it ..... and i need a set of trainer wheels :D ..... but i know - parts are hard to find and expensive and its all too high maintenance ..... but i have a dream :D

Ken - its the Capella, all done up using huge ass brakes and it used to be daily driven by its owner who owns a whole bunch of other cars. thing is the owner got a couple of 11 sec runs in and the car has been sitting in the workshop for 3-4 months. its got a nice interior all retrimmed. i thought it would be cool to run around in.

its in Msia so thats around AUD8k

They do make cool drift cars but underbonnet temps , wiring and turbo issues make them to hard to maintain.

That blue 300zxTTDD I had was a good example of use it , abuse it and sell it..:D

cheers

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
