Title: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: The Don on March 05, 2009, 11:19:14 AM Jukie would you post some pictures of your Sato rear sets, and could you get a close up of your brake side please. Did you and or Betty fit them or did you get your mechanic to fit them? thanks in advance.

Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: Betty on March 05, 2009, 01:27:03 PM ... and to answer his question ...
They were installed with the exhausts ... those sexy stainless brackets were custom made to suit, so it was all done at the same time (not by us). I certainly didn't install them but Jukie has fiddled with the setup since, but more on the gear-change side I think. Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: The Don on March 05, 2009, 10:51:39 PM Thanks for your help Jukie, Betty and Trev, just one more thing, is that a pressure switch on top of your brake slave cylinder, the reason I ask is I bought a set of Lucas adjustable rear sets. To hook up the brake light I have a pressure switch instead of using the original system. If you have a pressure switch I was wondering how you /your mechanic hooked it up.
Don Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: Jukie on March 06, 2009, 02:10:39 AM Hey Don
i have no idea but the brake lights work so, im assuming it must have been the mechanic that did it. Sorry im not much help. iam a girl after all. [roll] Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: dragonworld. on March 06, 2009, 06:10:21 PM If its a pressure switch its an easy deal !! ;D
Usually you just have to get 2 terminals for the switch, (usually standard auto spade types) and either get a compatible connector for the original loom, or just cut the wires and connect a terminal to each one and then push a wired connector onto each terminal of the pressure switch and away you go! [thumbsup] But its dead simple just to use your original, just find a place to anchor the small return spring to the brake pedal. ;) Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: The Don on March 06, 2009, 06:35:57 PM Off the top of your head would you know if the original connector used is a part I should be able to get from a auto electrician, or would I need to go either to a wrecker or someone like Fraser's.

Don 99% of the pressure switches that I have seen have the standard size push on auto spade terminals, available pretty well anywhere. SuperCheap, Repco, Autopro.

Jukie, where did you get that rear hugger from? carry on... Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: Betty on March 10, 2009, 01:30:51 PM *Off topic: Jukie, where did you get that rear hugger from? carry on... Carbonworld in Germany - had a very good experience with them. The prices on their website usually includes a VAT (18-19%?) which is not applicable to us. Postage is cheap because everything is so light, but the exchange rate is not doing us any favours at the moment. Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: Yellow Meanie on March 10, 2009, 01:45:27 PM Thanks Betty ;)
It looks like Jukie's rearsets are adjustable? The triangular piece the footpeg comes off looks like it can be moved around. ?? Where do the pegs sit in relation to the stock pegs? Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: The Don on March 10, 2009, 04:24:10 PM hey Don.. Ive got them on and did a track day with them last Friday, they work fine but need a little adjusting, I can get you photo's of the rear sets mounted, but I have no idea on how to post them.how'd ya go, did ya get it done yet? I've also got a set of Lucas and looking the setup of them. got any pics of the finished job? where's the resovoir *sp* go? The biggest problem I had was bleeding the rear brake, and I still don't have the brake light working yet. Don Title: Re: Call out to Jukie and her Sato rear set Post by: monsta on March 11, 2009, 02:05:38 AM cool,

Can I suggest you get them anodized.. they will handle the elements better and last longer. If you like the raw ally look you can get em clear anodized, you dont have to get a color. I went for black... 8) cost was about 70$. I pushed out the bronze bearing before I did it, wasn't a big deal at all...

The biggest problem I had was bleeding the rear brake, and I still don't have the brake light working yet. Don Sometimes taking the caliper off and raising to a much higher level than the master cylinder will assist in getting the air to the "little bleeder" ;). Dont forget to wedge something in between the pads so the caliper pistons dont pop out.
