332mm brembo kit

does anyone know if the 332mm brembo kit that costs an arm and a leg will fit within the stock rims. the 332 is equal to 13.07086614.....
im sure that they stockers are more than enough stopping power but i am wondering. is it true that the 7 comes stock with four piston calipers?

I have the kit and you will need 17's, the stock 16's are too small. I will warn you the replacement costs of pads , rotors, and eventually calipers is so high it will give you nosebleeds.

eg, pads $200 US
rotors $300 plus more for bolts

caliper :don't ask.

T2s, some other second gens, and the FD all come with 4-piston front calipers, stock.

yeah i just saw that. no need to waste money on upgrading brakes for another 4 piston caliper. most sport cars are lucky to have two pistons. although i did see the M2 performance has a set of 13" with wilwood 4 piston for stock rims. that is not too bad, but im sure something like taht would be the very last mod. i will use the 2g's for something like the reliablity mods, or rims after the rel. mods. big brakes dont seem to do much more since like oyu stated we are running 4 pistons. just read that too in the RX7 book. me loves it a lot
