hey i am new to this web page i been reading and it looks like u guys help out a lot well right now i am in japan finishing my tour in the marines and i want to bring some gxl or gtu or turboII rotors hubs and brakes and convert mines i heard of couple of other guys doing it in these forums i will put on the pics of my car soon

 

instead of doing that (unless you want to), you can buy adaptors that simply change the pattern....the only problem is that they stick out a good inch and a half, so it may not work depending on the offset of your rims...im having the same problem. i wanna swap 4x110 to 4x114.3, but im worried that my wheels will rub on the fender since they'll stick out a little more than they should.

 

well i seen this 85 and he did the conversion and it look great he also ran the stock fd wheels theres got to be someone out there who has done it

that is what you want

 

thanks a lot these will do for now

 

well, u can get the cp big brake kit. it converts the front brakes into the fc's and also changes the bolt pattern. the only thing is that u need the 84-85 front spindles. also i think you need adapters for the rear to use the same bolt pattern.

 

you said cp racing well let check them out because you know we are all tired of the same old bolt pattern that we cant get any rims for

 

well, if u intend to keep 4x110, the only wheels u can get that i would recommend are the...early fb gsl wheels. they are enkie mesh, 15x7 front 15x8 rear i think???? im not sure but they look pretty cool and are a nice width. its 15 or 16 not sure, but ive only seen them for sale staggerd, but good luck finding those

on the other hand for 4x110, they have the kosei k1. this are skinny 6 spokes that look awsome and are 15x7.

i think they're on tire rack.

 

this kind of intale's this thread...but lets say u want to put rear disc on an 82 but u dont want to change from the 4 lug to a 5 lug....is there a way that i can swap out the rear but keep my old 4x110 bolt pattern....or is that a dream that cant be completed...thx parker

 

yeah..use the gsl rear end and keep the 4x110.

 

Nick is correct, the bolt pattern that is different on our fb;s is the se which is the 4x114.3 pattern, the rest are all 4x110mm. Did you install the trans yet? By the way i also have a 82 gsl complete rearend. rx7doctor

 

hey no piston racer you are in 29 palms

 

hey rx7doctor.....nope ive yet to get the tranny in....at starters i couldnt get the car high enough off the ground...then with all this really shitty weather i couldnt work on it.....now that i might get some time off work to get it done im going to take it to a shop and use their lift to work on it.....hopefully i can have it done by next weekend....parker

ps....we might be doing some more business rx7doctor....

 

You are lucky right now, you have an opportunity to bring back some neat stuff back, why don't you fill out a requisiton request for about 20, 20b turbo motors and have the supply sargent push it thru. You can tell him its for the new advanced generator motors for the mobile communication command centers, lol.

If he pulls that off, I'm buying 2. And one will go into the FB. How badass. Maybe we should tell him to pick up a couple of 26B's as well.

 

Just curious, but running the adapters, is there any disadvantage other than it sticking out? can they fail, or can do they weaken any points in the drivetrain?

thx

 

yeah i can get almost anything just give me a line and i get you back i just sent home a nice turbo from hks/garette .60

 

The adapters when supplied by the right place such as david has posted will cause zero problems with your drivetrain or with any other portion of your suspension. Getting the correct offset for the wheel you are going to use and discussing the proper width of the spacer with the maker or others you have used them will prevent the sticking out problem. rx7doctor

 

hey man i could use a nice NKS bov....lol....im picking up a garret turbo in the next month so the HKS bov would be great....too bad that yes im stuck in 29 palms and headed to Lejuene...but i do have some connections with Japan parts....so hook up a fellow marine...thx parker

 

alright just let me finish the rest of my restriction and go out to the shops right now i got an sr20 det red top engine works racing 17" two turbos from a 2jz supra and small parts that i used on many of my cars but just let me know what u need and i hook u up not only because u are a marine because u are a fellow rotary driver ooraahh
