Done, I'll keep one in reserve for you..

How do you plan to insert the RPM worm kit in the 5s clutch cover. If a hole is drilled and things how is the reliability as in will there be any engine oil leaks. Asking this as we haven't tried doing this.

Have done it twice, once in a 100 Clutch cover & once in 1355s Clutch cover by drilling holes, EL Perfecto Job done..So, never had issues. I personally started disliking huge speedo/ RPM cluster in my 5s, so reverted back to stock.

Pic of my 5S when i had that done sometime back..

Thanks for the blue Z pic. The sticker kit aslo varies for blue being common for all the other colors..! Hmm...was that a limited edition blue or something..?

Ram anytime bro i ll tell u one more thing guys you rock !!!

My personal view if i may add my 2 cents restores it back to 4s (again only my personal veiw

) Other ppl may say otherwise.

About the clutch cover hole drilling can you share the cost of the entire process please?

When can i transfer the cash to you for the speedo meter bro ??

As far as i know Blue was not a limited edition but very limited numbers were brought by people. Sticker kit for blue scheme if you want i can find if i can source one set for you.

Thank you Sir, It's been a long time since i heard anything about your 5S. Hope all is well there too

Yes it is, currently completed 950 kms for the run in and slowly getting the engine free. I am enjoying every bit of it after the rebuild. There is a lot to the learning curve.

Cheers for your rebuild too !!

Yup, this is the one. Ram, please dont go for the regular 5-speed Blue, its way too common, i think this 4-speed Blue looks pretty orgasmic. I for one love it.

The day i decide to build my RX-Z, this is the one i would prefer.

Thanks Chethan, the cost of drilling holes was free as i & my mech did it in-house itself.

About the 5S covers in 4S, i just love the way the covers look. Would really want to see how would they look on a 4S stickered model. If it looks good, will retain it, if not will revert back to the 4s covers. If at all i can't make up my mind, i'll leave it to you guys.

Regarding the Speedo, will PM you the details bro

Thanks Karthik, I've been bored to death of seeing 135's with 5s stickering & Z's with 5's stickering. So will definitely be the vintage looking 4's only for sure. Btw. doesn't the shade look like the Z 5s base colour & 4's stickers on top of it in the image what vijay has shared..?

**dpak89** · 07-06-2012, 12:24 PM

Congrats!

Sorry for the late entry

Congrats on the purchase Ram!

I dont have any second thoughts on how and when the outcome will be!

But this time since you have most of the parts in stock hope you finish this fast!

@Sriram & Gautham: Treat from Ram ?

Dont ever think about it!

P.S: @Ram: pls also check for the magneto cover.

Thanks Ji..! Yes, almost everything is in stock with me except good sunny days for paint curing process, so have postponed till the South West Monsoons get over & then start it, but till then, it will be my daily commuter..

About the treat, C'mon Deepak ji, Am I that bad..?

P.S. Finally Raja-na got a 2006 135 that has clocked only 14k kms & has offered to donate the Magneto & Clutch covers to me. I'll keep in the look out for you..

Will tell you in course of time.

**Chethan Shivakumar** · 07-09-2012, 02:04 AM

Ram here is a pic for some comparison sake that the 4S blue is different from 5S blue

And both of these 4S and 5S parts are OE packing parts so you can make out the colour difference.

All the best bro.. Feels good to see your restoration while mine is also under progress .. I'm sure this thread will be a good learning to me.

Can you also post the picture of engine casing where the tacho hole is drilled? Mine being a central locking system, I'm considering RXZ meter for my RX too. My mech claims that drilling hole might not be required as there's a factory drilled slot in my Rx which can be used for tacho installation.

**vijaymeyou** · 07-10-2012, 09:15 PM

Hi Badri,

it will be on right side above oil pump cover.

picture attached for referance its an rx100 case.

Will RXZ worm gear be good on this case? Also, I've seen pic and heard that there are worm gears for the tacho comes in white and black. Is this for 4 speed and 5 speed RXZ respectively?
