Nothing that has been stated here changes the fact that the Jaguar brake caliper piston is not interchangeable with the Dunlop/Sumitomo brake caliper piston, as supplied and without modification.
In fact, the installation requires rather serious and extensive modification to both the piston, and the ...

It's not a question of what can be made to work (temporarily, permanently, or anywhere in between).

The section is about interchangeable parts. That implies they fit without serious modification or machine work. It also implies that the piece could be disassembled and reassembled with the original ...

Going back to the original post, this requires the use of a lathe, and it's "interchangeable"?

Why not start out with: "Buy a piece of 4140 alloy 2 1/2 inch round, and turn the outside diameter down to 2.17 inches, turn down a groove for the outer seal, cup (bore) the inside, then part the piece at ...

The originals are chromed. Machining would take off the chrome so these replacements are apparently not chromed?

The pictures coming up with a search of the part number do not show a center pin. The Honda expert rebuilding the smaller Sumitomo calipers swears that breaking the pin out renders the ...

May 14; find, buy, install: good condition used hood with very few dents.
May 20; hail storm.

OK, didn't realize the early steering column was different. Sorry.

HKB shows a bunch of different RX-7 bosses. These look like they might be the oldest models of RX7 they show:
Vehicle Model # S102/S124系, Years S46/9～S53/2, Note: RX-3, Boss PN OR-17
Vehicle Model # SA22C系, Years S53/3～S60/8, (no ...

Looks like a standard six bolt boss bolted to the wheel.

Someone in Australia was selling the HKB bosses for the Gemini several years ago. It is the same from Bellett through Trooper.

It looks like they are almost all the same, solid aluminum, 12 threaded holes for the two different six bolt ...

I am about to spend $500+ to heim joint the remaining four bushings on my Gemini FF race car, because bushings for that application are in line after the Bellett bushings. And I need them for this season.
People are finally spending money on ...

I was looking at the one with the taller dome. I found a link that said there were three or four different lenses on the Lucas equipped British cars:

This in the shallower clear lens (1950's):

But it looks like ...

Maybe I figured out something unknown, maybe this is old news...

I spent Sunday looking at turn signal lenses on the fronts of ~1965 Triumph Spitfire and Austin Healey cars, wondering if they are the same as the pre-September 1969 Bellett GT.

I found an auction listing, the description says it ...

It may not be fair to blame the seller.
Booksellers have historically opposed any type of censorship. They assume everything published has value and that anyone discouraging them from selling any specific item has an agenda to silence the views expressed in that book. The concept of someone writing ...

??? thats not a Bellett

Is it a Beetle? Without fenders or quarter panels, I was going by window shape (and thread title).
The image is cropped so that it cuts off the back, and the side window looks like a GT... Maybe a little long, butt he right shape.
If it's a Beetle, the chickens could ...

That one causes more irritation than the barbeque grille.

And unless the picture has been mirrored, that appears to be one of those overly common left-hand-drive GTs. The dash looks like it has the ultra-early three gauge style.

What, there's two left in Finland and one left in Japan, turn all the ...

This thread should be stickied.

Has anyone seen or read the following book:

Isuzu Bellett
ISBN: 9786130746049
Editors: Miller, Frederic P.
Vandome, Agnes F.
McBrewster, John

Seems to be a compilation of history stuff from Wikipedia etc.

In April of 1989, Autoweek magazine did a comparison of the I-Mark RS (Gemini ZZ Handling by Lotus, the one universally hated in Australia, but with the DOHC engine) to a 1965 Lotus-Cortina. It seems that Isuzu should have delivered a Cortina with their own car, for every road test, because it was ...

You've gotta give BULLITT a break

Actually, I was thinking of finding the left-click disable code from those pages. It seems really effective.

I can't figure out how the owner of the car with the carbon fiber hood, seems to get the same parking space every year.

If you're down to taking pictures of the screen with a camera, what kind of evil juju did somebody work on your computer?

I have managed to find out a bit more about this.

These medallions appeared in a brochure. There is no date, but I am going to guess some time before Fall 1969, because the tiny little picture of the GT has round turn signals on the front.
The outside (front/back) has the two medallions shown over ...

Hey JT does it say how many of the MX1600, MX1600II and R6 models were built, each?

There seems to be a few different pics of MX1600s and mainly a white MX1600II.

I know the R6 was probably built to order, but surely they would know how many!

Cheers,

Dave

I can't find anything in this article ...
