Time for another brake upgrade....

Anyone have a wilwood setup with or without a hydro brake?


I'm pretty sure my mc died last night and was going to order a prop valve from wilwood anyway so might as well kill two birds with one stone. Recommendations other than "oem"? **** stock.


Buckey, you CAN drive brakeless. Haha. Was it fun? You bet your *** it was.

stock is the way!! lol justin doesnt lie about the ebrake setups.
im sure wilwood is easier to lock, but its more involving, and more money youre throwing down.
stock is just all around easier.... just buy GOOD pads for the rear.

projectMU, Endless, stop tech. anything super grippy.

I'll see what i'm looking like. Thinking the seals just were bad and let go fully. Probably was installed in 87 on the assembly line like the rest of the car that's been giving me hell. Haha. If you guys really think it's a waste to give that a go. You think advanced auto would be able to get me one without ******* it up like every other rx7-specific order i've made? Lmao!

I got mine at the 'zone. I just have the fronts hooked up at the moment, but it holds pressure fine. Lifetime warranty too.

You missed the conversation we had when i mentioned running the bac valve when him and one of his friends (he owns a 7 as well) was down here. Lol.

"nah, **** that. Just mess with the cable and throttle stop screw until it idles on it's own."

Word. 100 percent nog status. Hopefully i can pick my **** up sunday or monday and get back rolling. Missed THREE rain days and was super pissed. ******* half a tank of gas in my car doing NOTHING. =( We need to slide sometime soon dood.

Also, if you don't mind a **** style prop valve, speedway motors has a purple one for cheap.
