I guess no one saw my reply one of the 50-something threads about wheels.



CP Racing carries a conversion kit.







*EDIT* It's in the drivetrain section.

I dunno if the 1st gen and 2nd gen bolt patterns are the same,so forgive me for asking; Will that work on a 88?

According to CP racing, all other RX-7s have this same bolt pattern.



I don't have first-hand knowledge, but I trust them.



Maybe someone can shed some light?

Eh,I wanted to do a 5 lug conversion, for when I change out the rear end.



Oh well, I guess I will have to do a custom re-drill anyway.



Now, SUPPOSEDLY, I heard CP was coming out with a big brake kit as well

which would convert to a 5 lug pattern as well.



But I haven't heard anything more on that.

Thats what I was tryin' to figure out...but:



First Gens have the 4x110 Bolt pattern.

Second Gens have the 4x114.3 Bolt pattern.



No...(yet?)

CP Racing appears to be the ****.



As soon as I get my car I plan on doing the steering conversion and possibly more suspension work like the rollcage and sway bars from them.

2nd gen 4 lug are 4x114.3

2nd gen 5 lug are 5x114.3(i think)

3rd gens are 5x114.3(or whatever is teh 2nd gen 5 lug offset)

I'm talkin' about the CP Racing conversion. It only comes in 4x110. I wish they had it for 4x114.3. I'd be all over that ****.
