i just recently purchased an 88 nonturbo rx7. the car runs really nice. in fact the only problem i have with it is that when i release the clutch there is a weird thump noise from the back. what could this be?

 

Does the thump noise occur when you are coasting in gear?

 

front diff mount...

how much would it be to get fixed? umm it does it when im coasting too any time i release the clutch

 

It's like a $120 part (I think) and maybe about 1 hours labor...
Couple hundred dollar job?

ok thanks alot ted oh yeah one more question how much would it be (estimate) for new master cylinders (brakes)

 

I managed to find a re-man master cylinder at the local parts store here for around $80. Turned out to be a rear caliper leaking that was my problem.

 

ok great thx guys

 

New brake master cylinder from Mazda is about $100 - $120.&nbsp Add one or two quarts of brake fluid to flush the brake system, because you need to for such a job (unless you furnish the brake fluid to them?).&nbsp Brake bleeding takes some time, so chalk up two hours of labor for that.&nbsp You're looking at a $250-$270 job from the Mazda dealer.
