reverendzed Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Sorry guys, being a Sunday now I won't be able to make it. Rev. Quote
C.A.R. Posted April 6, 2011 Author Posted April 6, 2011 Just come down after morning service, Dave. We'll be there all day! Quote
MaygZ Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Rev, please come after service. If you come I promise to perform a christian act I wont even make a single crack about hairdressing - obviously except to have a dig at Benny, but I'm sure that's OK. This forum is ALL about mateship. Still is and I reckon always will be. The Zeds are just the conduit. I'll also protect you from the 19yo Missing you MaygZ Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Hey guys, I'll probably be hitching a ride down in the Scoot-a-matic. I'll give you a call tonight Scoota. Come along Dave, we don't nearly have enough catch ups as it is! Hmm, maybe we need a plan to kidnap Rev after the service? Quote

AussieZed Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Sounds great ... I'll be there to say gidday .... and also to deliver a gearbox mount.... Ross Quote
FuzzyDropbear Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Sorry guys, but I will have to miss out now. I know, poor excuses, but I have to fix my daily driver, and have a slight opening to do some work on my Z for the first time in a month. Annoyed that I'll miss the workshop, but I hope everyone has a great time. Quote

Moderators Zedman240® Posted April 10, 2011 Moderators Posted April 10, 2011 How did you go Mark? Got it all going? When I left I just heard the cursing... Quote
Sirpent Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Just wanted to say thanks to Lurch and his family for the hospitality once again. Great day and always great catching up with you guys, the exchange of ideas info and general advise at these days is always fantastic and made the 280 km round trip worth it. Thanks to Scoota also for putting forward the idea. Dimitri, I left at 6.00pm, everything fitted up well in the end but the boys were having an issue with the "NEW" master cylinder assy. Cheers John Quote
MaygZ Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 John, the master cylinder was fine. We had a problem with the rear bleed nipples being on the bottom of the caliper! :'( Quote
Sirpent Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 John, the master cylinder was fine. We had a problem with the rear bleed nipples being on the bottom of the caliper! :'( ???????????????? What the "F" ? How did that effect the back surge? Quote
MaygZ Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Most of the rear calipers were air, so when the pressure was released the air would expand faster than fluid would - as air compresses much more than fluid and then rapidly expands to take up much more volume. Thus a roster tail of fluid back in the reservoir. The calipers need to be bled while unmounted or have a bleed valve tapped into the top of them. I know I'd tap in a new valve as it means they could be bled easier and more often: ie after/before each race. Quote
C.A.R. Posted April 10, 2011 Author Posted April 10, 2011 Scoota & myself reccomend that NO ONE does this conversion!!! Quote
luvemfast Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Scoota & myself reccomend that NO ONE does this conversion!!! Haven't you done it before though Lurch? What problems did you run into? Quote
AussieZed Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 Thanks for you and your folks hospitality Lurch .... and to you and Scoot putting up with us all under-foot while you tried to get something done.... A fun day. Ross Quote
Scoota G Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 I can now confirm that there was No problem with air in the system, seems the 'NEW' Master cylinder was faulty and caused all the drama at the end of the day. I replaced it with my old Tokico one and now have a Rock Hard pedal. Quote
RB30X Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 So you were able to get it hard by yourself, without Lurches help. Quote
