what is the best brake upgrade on a rx7 s2 as im building a bullet
 
hi guys just wondering what is the easiest and best brake upgrade on my rx7 s2 because im building a bullet and also need to stop. im putting a RB25 in it with a RB30 bottom end. so far for my project ive got a high mount stainless steel turbo manifold, T3/T70 turbo, huge alloy radiator, CA18 5 speed gearbox and adjustable cam gears. still to come a after market inlet manifold, bigger injectors, bigger fuel rail, fuel cell, VL turbo fuel pump, 100mm throttle body, 100mm front mount intercooler, stage 2 cams, haltech computer, Brass button clutch and VL commodore diff mini spooled so it should be a bullet its just going to be staight drift and drag no rego so what do u all think about my project?

RB25? sounds nice.

I'd start with this brake kit, then you can use 2nd gen RX-7 brakes.

oh ok so do they deliver to australia? and would it be expensive is there one of these places in australia because i also want to convert to power stearing aswell.

j_tso 03-25-08 07:46 AM

I don't know about the shipping, you'd have to contact them, but all the kits are made in-house there. The only non-US distributor is in Canada.

SICRX7 03-25-08 07:51 AM

oh ok well you have been a big help what do you reckon of my covertion what u drivin

j_tso 03-25-08 08:00 AM

I like the RBs, and have never seen one in an old 7. It would be refreshing change from all the V8s being thrown in. A buddy of mine has an S13 with an RB20 and it really hauls ass.

I've got an all stock S2 that just died recently, so I'm in the process of putting in an NA S4 13B.

SICRX7 03-25-08 08:04 AM

oh ok ive also got a rx7 s4 na 13b inj it goes like shit cos they are so damn heavy but it should go good in a s2 your talking about the 6 port yeah?

SICRX7 03-25-08 08:06 AM

have you got msn messenger if so i will send you some pics of my project

90turbo1 03-25-08 09:48 AM

sounds like a fun project but I dont think the ca18 tranny would be up to that task for long, we swapped in a complete ca18 drive train into a usa spec 240sx a while back and the tranny was the weak link there. for your rb25 i would go with a 300zx (usa turbo model) trans. or somthing beefier like that, or even the trans that came with the orginal motor..

just a thought

Try here:

Steve84GS TII on here is running the Selectmaz setup. They are not too far from you (Melbourne) and you wouldn't have to deal with international shipping, currency exchange, etc.

Shipping on the kit would run $37.00. That is a flat rate box price.
I can fit 14 more pounds in the box for the same $37.00.

Take a look, see if you need anything else.

get the respeed kit. i have it front and rear and i love it.

john smack 03-25-08 12:25 PM

Does the respeed offer a brake kit that would change the bolt pattern to a GSL-SE or 2nd gen 5 bolt?

RX-7 Chris 03-25-08 01:00 PM

It changes to a 2nd gen 5 bolt.

Hellbent1stN2ndownr 03-25-08 01:08 PM

Waiting on this KIT right now! and im excited. I have a 5 lug swap in the rear, but it IS NOT the respeed rear, it was doing by owner before me.

GOOD LUCK ON THIS PROJECT!
