88 rx7 5 lug help

im getting tired of searching cant find anything on what im looking for..

I got front and rear 5 lug from a t2, and the whole rear end off a t2.

the only thing i dont have is calipers.

i need to know if my calipers from my 4 lug will work and how do u do a 5 lug conversion? and will the 5 lug set up off the t2 work with what my 4 lug is on? I have a s5 base model..

is there anything else i need?

thanks.

It's been a while since I've messed with FC's but your 4 lug calipers wont work with a 5 lug setup. 5 lug calipers are different and are required to complete the swap. The swap is straight forward: replace your 4 lug stuff with the 5 lug hardware you bought and bleed your brakes. This is assuming you have, in your possession, all the required parts to complete the swap. As far as I remember, you're going to need a custom driveshaft made to use your NA transmission with the T2 diff. Don't quote me on that though. There's plenty of info on 5 lug swaps and diff swaps on this forum.
