Interchangeable Items for the FC

[monterx7]

1. Skyline radiator (think R32)
2. FD front brake pads
3. FD front brake calipers
4. Skyline Front Brakes
5. MX5 Braided Brake line for clutch hose (slight modification required on bracket, and need to reuse washer as a spacer) £15 !
6. AE86 door mirrors
7. MX5 diffs drop into NA\'s FC
8. MR2 MKII pop-up light glass
9. FD thermostat will fit an FC and there is a Saab one that fits that has a lower opening temp.
10. FD Diff internals will fit an FC TII diff casing and give you an LSD.
11. FD Brake Master cylinder will fit TII and give better braking pressure
12. Rear FD Braided brake line can be used as a clutch line for the TII
13. FD RZ front callipers can take a 32mm front disc so bigger and wider front discs (from anything) can be fitted. Callipers will need a bracket to relocate it. I fitted M5 discs (335 x 30) to my FC using stock FD calipers with a spacer in the middle from Billet Bitz who used to advertise on here. The RZ caliper already has the spacer from mazda. The brakes were fantastic on track
14. Evo IX brembo brakes fit with minor mods on the FC fronts. Apparently you need to drill out the caliper bolt holes a little, and the rotors need machining down a small amount and the centre hole is a little narrow for the FC centre\'s so that needs to be machined out just a little. This will only work on 17" or above wheels, and may require a spacer as the calipers are a little wider.
15. MX3 ashtray is identical to the FC one.
16. Mazda 323 pop-up headlights
17. Fd alternator - may have to machine out the pulley hole abit

oh just found out at the weekend by chance that a ford probe strut brace fits straight on the fc lol

Not a direct fit but with little modification a electric fan & cowling out of a Merc C180, its massive & does the job nicely!! Well worth doing & got both the fan & cowling from my local scrappy for £20 so bargain!! Mounting it is pretty easy to.

Looks like a good fit what sort of rad is it in the car N/A or turbo looks different to my T2 ?
Cheers

[James H]

Sorry good point thats an n/a rad but will fit your T2 rad all the same

[Skifledanabit]

the problem is, people aren\'t saying what modifications are needed to do these...

[Skifledanabit]

does anyone know if there are any upgrades for the EGi brakes that aren\'t resorting to grooved/drilled disks and greenstuff pads etc? Just want to get bigger and/or better brakes for grinder price or similar

[m1tch]

Could you not swap the calipers over to a TII? I believe that the EGI calipers don\'t have as many pistons?

[Skifledanabit]

is it a direct swap?

[dthebuk]

Do you have 4 pot brakes?

if so, they\'re as good as the TII and FD brakes. And they are good brakes!!

Might be an idea to change/look into uprated pads if you\'re having issues. My egi used to be able to lock the fronts fairly easily

[Prof]

UK EGI brakes are 4 pot same as theTII\'s - only our american cousins got the lesser brakes
