rx7 FD 2000 big brake upgrade

what is the difference between 93 - 00 front brakes set up and sizes. because ive wanted to upgrade for a while and keep getting told a different thing each time. i was looking at wilwood 13" big brake up grade but they tell me that it will only fit from 93-96. what 6pot brakes fit in my 2000 rx7 fd

91/92 to 2002 FDs can all use the same brake kits

Also I think Alex Rodriquez who is a forum member has a good Wilwood brake kit available so if you get one keep it in the family

Has anyone found any newer OEM calipers to fit the FD?
I know there was some work done getting Evo Brembo's on, but that didnt work out.

I would like to know this too. An affordable BBK for most of us who just drive the street would be nice. Even if I could get bigger rotors to fill out my wheels Id be happy.

The evo brembo brakes were completed i thought. They only needed a caliper spacer/adapter. I remember seeing the adapter somewhere.

No. This never happened and the member gave up on the project and went with a Rotora BBK I believe.

i ask the seller and he told me that they wouldnt. so i didnt buy them and wanted to find more information first because its a lot of money to pay for brakes that wont fit on my car.
