Yeah man, get it done! Ron, what big brake kit are you going with? Are you going to use the 18" Enkei that came on the new S or are you going to get some 17s?
If so, how wide/what offset are they? The 17" tire options drop off dramatically with anything wider than 255. I'd like to get some 275s on the rear of my rx7.

I'm going big cuz I haz extra power now. 18s square is what I'm planning cuz I got the Gendron FSB anyway and brakes are probably the tire rack Brembo package or something used on line. I'm taking my time on this set up.
Jason, sorry the PF01s (square s2000 spec) are gone the day someone heard I'm changing my flatform. So with the wings and tire trailer with hitch.

He lives in chantilly but works all over. I'll give him a call in the morning and talk to him about it. What all needs done? I want to get a couple of track days in with this setup to make sure i like it enough to put a roll bar/cage in it. But if I continue tracking it, there is def. something in it's future.

The baffle is the thin metal plate as seen in this pan.

Ah, personally I think there are better options than the Brembo...I think the Stoptech kit is more favored by the track guys and is several hundred cheaper. Actually, I'll send you a PM...
Any reason you are going with 18s square? The tire prices are like double the price as was pointed out to me on the thread last year.

Actually I'm heavily leaning towards Stoptech and I'll only buy Brembo if it's used because I still need some monies for pads.

Damn, thanks anyways. Those wheels are like the slutty chicks in HS. They've been around to everyone and back.
That's why I wanted a turn.

But if prices are too high for me then I'll go back down to 17s.

Larger footprint = larger traction circle is true though.
