Hey

Ended up getting the hubs off. But weve come across another problem. The rotor off the turbo brakes are too big to fit in the cover that goes around the non turbo rotor. I tried bending the cover so it would fit bit it seems to be hitting around the main hub area. I dont get it i thought they would be similar?

anyone got any idea why it could be doing this?

cheers

You may find that they just slide off the stub axle, if they are the same as the S13 ones.

On my car i took the hub off the stub axle and they are just press fitted on so I just worked them back and forward (CW and CCW) until they loosened up enough to slide them off.

EDIT!!

You should have just bough my complete 5 stud hub assemblies i have in my shed for a R33, would have saved you all this bother.

      Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!

      Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure

      A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins

      Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
