    brackets
    rx7 calipers and pads
    line adapters

    we can get everything except pads/calipers from you. we retain stock hoses via adapters. if thats all there is to it, count me in...as long as this happens withen a reasonable time (i need brakes soon)
    I don't think he is supplying the calipers, they're not that hard to source though.

      As far as using the stock caliper with larger rotors, you would need to go up to at least a 12" rotor in order to have proper bolt spacing...

          Just sent my email in for the full kit. I have calipers already. To anybody that needs calipers, I paid $30 for the set at the local junk yard without brake lines. I'd be happy to keep an eye out for anybody that's looking.

              Are the corrado rotors you guys are talking about unmodified? One of the reasons I didn't look twice at the Massive kit was because I didn't want to be restricted to buying my rotors from him or to have to get my new rotors machined to fit the BBK during replacement time.


              So, this adapter plus the specified RX-7 calipers plus line adapters plus unmodified stock corrado rotors and it's good to go? Any fitment confirmation for the ABS?

                You have the option of stock Corrado rotors or the zinc plated ones.

                  These are the same rotors Lee uses on his kits, so yes, they need to be modified to fit the e30 hub. If you want bigger brakes with rotors you can buy from napa you will probably need to go 5 lug.

                      they will be pre-drilled to 66mm centric. $50 per rotor.

                        Can someone get a detailed list going? So far I have:
                        Calipers from the 1987-1991 RX7 with 4 pot calipers
                        Caliper Adapters
                        Corrado Rotors, Machined to 66mm center bore
                        Line adapters (anyone know the threading?)

                        Will these fit under stock basketweaves? Also can these be used all the way around, as in rx7 front and rear calipers?

                            The wheels that can clear these calipers would play a huge role in me being in on this GB, any idea on this bwh13? Will you still be able to provide the rotors after the GB is over? And the last question is have you figured out the brake line adaptor situation? Thanks for bringing this opportunity to the forum.

                              OP, If you are trying to pedal these brackets why don't you explain people what is involved. ie: what year specific calipers, what size are the rotors? what exactly -if anything- needs to be done to the rotors, what size adapters do they need etc. It isn't that hard and I see people asking specifics in half the posts in this thread.
