    Default Rx7 Calliper Owners Beware

    Just thought id let people know through my own mistakes, beware of die grinding off the MAZDA logo on your 4 pot callipers.

    On the series 5/6, they have a high ridge which the mazda is cast into. You must only remove the logo, not the ridge! If you remove the ridge as i did, you grind into the brake fluid passage. Not cool...Just as well i had a spare!

    With the series 4, there is a little knob just under where the mazda logo is cast - once again this is a fluid passage. only remove the mazda logo.

    Just thought id let ya's know so you dont fuck up like me

    curiously shane what do you do with the caliper?
    I remember you asking for a fubared one for exactly the same reason from the old forums as well. do you repair it or something?
