Tune Up Questions

Hey Everyone,

Just trying to buy some parts ahead of time for my vert so that when the weather gets warm I will have the right parts on hand to start working with.


Here's what I am looking to get to start the tune up that I need.

Water Pump
Thermostat
Spark Plugs (What brand will do justice)
Spark Plug Wires (Any specific brands that are recommended)
Front Rotors (Any tricks on this?)
Front Brake Pads (What kind of pads should I get)

Also am I going to need a hardware kit for the front brake pads?


Where is a good recommended place that I should go to get the parts listed above. I am just curious as some places cant be trusted and some dont cater to RX-7 parts that easily. I could not care if its an online store or a autostore.

Someone please advise me on this so that I don't go the wrong road and end up with a severe detour.

plugs - NGK
wires - NGK or Racing beat or Nology or Taylor.......on and on and on
water pump - OEM
T-stat - OEM, or a partsource/autozone one
brake rotors - KVR, brembo....if your looking to upgrade that is...since slotted, corssdrilled or both aren't much more than straight up replacments.
brake pads - KVR carbon EBC(green stuff) or OEM......but these just depend on what your drivng is like, how you use the car etc...for example - if you were to put Hawks on there, plan on changing your rotors frequently because Hawks are pretty much machineing tools - lol......
