I've got a '88 GTU and I'm not sure which calipers are on it. They're aluminum with cooling fins on the outside. Anyone a certified RX-7 guru?

Those are probably the 4 piston, if the car has 5 lug wheels it has the 4-piston brakes. They say Mazda on them right?
|
yup, it sounds like the 4 piston to me too

if its got cooling fins, its the 4 piston. The single piston fronts look like big versions of the rear calipers.
|
They're 5 lug wheels. I think they say Mazda on them, not sure. 4 pistons make me happy https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Besides saying Mazda on them, if you look at the actual piston itself, you see it will 2 'circle' type of things on them, those are the pistons, 2 on each side of the pad for a total of 4.
Single have on circle, or just squared off in shape and not rounded at all. Im talking about the outside of the caliper by the way. |
Sounds like the 4-pot to me. Nice!
|
Glad to see this thread...I just got a 5-lug conversion that (evidently) has 4-piston calipers. Sweeeet. Only downside is that someone painted them purple.
|
Yup, aluminum with the Mazda emblem is definetly the exterior ques of the 4 piston caipers.
|
My 4 piston calipers don't have the "Mazda" on them (like I've seen on some FD's).... Is that only on S5 FC's?
