Convert 4X110 to 4x100 or 5 lug

I have a 1979 rx7 with a 83 lsd rear end. In the near future i want to upgrade wheels and brakes, and i

am aware of the poor wheel selection for the 4x110 pattern. What are the least complicated ways of

swapping to the gsl se pattern or 5 lug. I also wouldent mine upgrading the brakes and some other

suspension parts as well. All solutions would greatly help me. I want any advice out there since theres not

much any where else. much appreciated.

ReSpeed. Get the TII Big Brake kit, that gets you a different lug pattern, then order the Mosler rear axles in the same pattern. That is the cheapest and less redundant way to upgrade to your liking.

I think you answered it yourself 5.0machx7, the easiest way to change your bolt pattern to a more common one, without using adapters, is to change your rear end and front suspension parts to gslse ones which are 4x114.3. Or as Jeezus said, you could get the respeed big brake kit for the front and rear, changing to a 5lug.

no its not. better check your calculation. start itemizing and compare the figues between what he recommended and upgrading to a GSL-SE front hub and complete rear end.
