Those wont fit... Sorry.

Never say they wont fit. Anybody who is creative enough and determined enough can make them fit.

^ you are absolutely right. ive been with this community for several years. when a new product or group buy came around the same 10-20 people would join the purchase. these were usually the ONLY people who would come thru when they said they were willing to pay for a new product. if it were not for...

Well anyways as with everything else this is a no go as no one wants to step up and be heard. Why is it everyone pisses and moans because there is little or no aftermarket for are vehicles but when it comes time to change that fact everyone nit-picks the F@#$ out of a group buy or someones idea unti...

thats too much $$ for just calipers and rotors Well you can get Rotors, 4 piston calipers , SS flexlines , pads , and Hardware from percision brakes for about $ 1550. I dont know bout you but $ 580 still sounds good to me. I'm not looking to haul my car down to a stop from 180 mph , just to improve...

bigger rotor = more mechanical advantage = less pressure needed = bigger caliper not needed Bochek Actually, its as follows: bigger rotor = more unsprung weight = MORE pressure needed to stop car = bigger rotor wont do anything = you will take LONGER to stop if you dont upgrade to bigger calipers. ...

The kit will include a 12 inch rotor and a caliper relocation bracket for around $580 + shipping. :D Caliper relocation bracket? So it will use the stock caliper? If so, why bother? If all you want is a bigger rotor you can use the Miata rotor IIRC. If there is a new bigger caliper in the mix then ...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was e-mailing Rafi over at RR-racing.com about doing a front big brake kit for a 90 protege (which is the same as the MX-3) and got a response from him saying if he gets 5 people to buy he will make a 12 inch big brak...

If you go down to your local auto parts store and pick up a bottle of Guaranteed to pass. It works wonders. brought my gross polluting v-8 s-10 down to well under the max limits. Which is amazing since the readings were triple the max limit. I swear by the stuff !!

Yes they are the ones I need. Thanks.

It seems that my Brembo rotors are a tight fit (brass mallet required) onto the center of the rear hub. Is this normal or do I need to break out the grinder.

Need the front seat belt buckles. Switched from auto to manual seat belts and the dang belts wont fit the buckles. Had the front tracks with seat belt buckles and tossed them bout a month ago thinkin I didn't need them. zip code is 19701.

If you think a six in a MX-3 is tight, dang it's tight in a P5 I believe they even had to modify the frame rail. I was comparing my MX-3 and P5 and looks like the radiator would have to be moved forward about 1 1/2". And the frame rail would have to be notched . Not to mention custom mounts , a...
