RX4 BridgePort Turbo

Are you running S2 or S3 FB rear brakes? The S3 will give you vented.
 
i have got the calipers from an elford converted 1st gen so im not sure if they are s2 or s3? i will check tommorrow when i can see in the light as to if they are vented.
 
The FD calipers should fit behind 15 inch wheels if you run the FC discs. It depends which discs you plan to run with them.

if i can use fc disks then i will do that, concentrating on the rear at the moment. Getting it all together and hopefully into the car so we can get it on some wheels and be able to move it around better than on the trolley its on at the moment.

S2 are 110 PCD and solid. S3 are 114.3 PCD and vented.

should be something very different when done!!
 
Personally id get rid of the facet i have never seen them work well - if its going to be a full house engine with gt42 etc get something like a carter gold or black..

Got to agree with you there. I was told that the facet would be ok. That turned out to be tosh.I was then told to use 2 of them side by side.Thing is you need one way valves on them to stop them pushing against each other as one will always be stronger than the other.We discovered that so running 2 was a load of tosh also. I now run carter pump with no issues(or tosh)

Cheers for the advice kiwi and 12at, where do I get these carter golds/black from? Will one be good enough? As I am only using it as a pickup for the swirl pot?

I\'m going to be running a gt4088 which is coming in January. I have been told I could run a gt42 but they are really expensive and I need to learn how to drive the car with a reasonable turbo to start with and not one of those monsters

i went and got this today to start working out how we are going to mount the FD disk and caliper onto the front struts


now these are considerably bigger than the standard rx4 discs, so hopefully one of my dads friends who write programmes for cnc machines will be able to throw something together and get them cut out of a nice piece of ally.

get in finally figured out why the pictures werent coming up, just the direct link. simple solution but just me being an idiot and not trying hard enough!:rollin

I googled for my carter but Holley are good and I think Demon Tweeks do them now with the regulator

[drtool]

Are they FC or FD discs you went with?
 
Templates are available for the FC discs.

cheers i will have a look in tmy demon tweeks catalogue which came last week, starnge really as i cant remember signing up for it?!

Templates are available for the FC discs.

that is an fd disk as if we cant get them on the struts with a custom hub, then i can use on my car RX7 FD so i wont have wasted any money and have the trouble of selling some fc disks. but if we cant get the FD disks to fit then i will buy some FC disks and then have a look at getting them to fit.
 
wher are these templates available from the FC disks? as they cant be that much different? as they both use the same stud pattern? 114.4?
