James, i recently brought a LSD from the US, there were never fitted to UK cars so you will have to look there for one, i have heard the later MX5 lsd will go (again check out rx7.club.com) just be aware you have the later 7" pumkin
as for brakes there are conversion kits to fit the later gen 2 4 pots, again im in the process of doing this i just need the discs. check out respeed (http://mrcmfg.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=108_112) i have had a few bits from Billy there coilovers etc. there are 2 ways you can go about it if you want to keep the 114 x 4 pcd (http://www.rx7club.com/forum/showthread.php?t=678421&highlight=brake+conversion) you will need to source hubs from a gen 2 series 4 in the US these were non turbo cars with the same brakes as a late gen 1 series 3 and kept the 114 x 4 pattern, i did this as i want to convert the rear brakes also and keep my 18"s as i already have them on the car. if you want to go to 114 x 5 pcd you can get the hubs from the UK but you will need new rear axles to match Billy at respeed does these and i know Tim / Don Pampion has had the rear conversion but Tim at RX Motors did it for him so it might be worth chating to him
