Mazda RX7 turbo II caliper adaptors for 240 and Strut tube mounted swaybar link
Our Mazda RX7 caliper conversion has been in the works for some time. We've had the calipers since late last year, and have been taking our time with it due to other commitments and projects.
The calipers have been rebuilt, We've sandblasted a pair of strut tubes and modified them for a new front swaybar link setup we're also working on, we've made a set of ducted backing plates to suit the mazda calipers and have recently finished the adaptor brackets.
Simon (RBOVLOV242) in South Australia is also doing the same conversion for his Nissan powered 242 project.
He had a set of adaptor brackets made and was kind enough to send them to us so we could copy them and we worked on ducted backing plates to suit.
The conversion uses a modifed 240 backing plate, a 11.25" dia (22mm thick) rotor from a 740T (or 940 if you're in the US. Our 940s have 27.5mm thick, 11" dia rotors), Mazda RX7 turbo II (5 stud wheels) caliper, and the adaptor plate.
These will be for sale shortly from our website.
I'll post pics soon of a completed strut assembly and more when its fitted in the car.
