1987 FC 4 to 5 lug conversion
I currently have my Rx7 sitting on some stands with the wheels off ready for some brake upgrades. I was planning on swapping my front calipers with some of the 4 piston calipers from a TII or an FD, then I learned that to do the the swap I would need to convert to 5 lugs or get some 5 lug rotors machined to fit 4 lugs. I was going to do a 5 lug swap eventually so I guess eventually will be now. My question is can I use my current spindles with the 5 lug hubs or will I need to use the TII spindles as well?
