So I'm wondering what would be involved in changing an SE's bolt pattern to 4x110 (non SE rx7's) or if it's even possible?

Does it involve just a swap of the hubs or more to include suspension pieces?

Thanks for the help.

 

for the front or rear or both?

basically for the rear it would require a brake and axle change. for the front a hub assembly (spindle is the same). This is assuming 84-85 car.

 

yes both front and rear.

So the 4x110 parts need to come from an 84-85 car as well? I can't get it from any other year?

 

the early year parts would be the small bearing so no.

why do you want to down grade?

 

^wondering the same thing. You wouldn't just be changing the lug pattern, you'd also be going to smaller brakes.

But yes, everything would have to come from an 84/85, the earlier stuff is different.

 

Thanks for the clarification.

I have 4x110 wheels and the car I'm looking to get is an SE so hence the need to change.

Would it really be a down grade?

 

well the brakes are better on the SE. the lug pattern is considered a "better" item since its normal 4x114.3

 

if that car is in LA, we can trade if you want but cant do it until first weekend of August. lmk

 

I'm in Missouri. I'll trade you if you're close. I'll even power coat the stuff for free.

 

Yeah I'd make that trade as well, 4x110 is hard to find wheels for.

 

there are plenty but not cheap lol

 

Thanks for the info and offer guys. I don't have the SE yet but I am looking at picking one up.

Siraniko,
I've seen a couple for sale in LA but none that looked right for me. If you know of a clean one let me know. I'm in SD and will travel for the right car!

 

bro and i just picked up a clean gsl-se last saturday for dirt cheap. may need a new motor since it has 170k miles on orig motor but it is not an issue. up north in the bay area, there is a clean se for $5k

 

I'd trade 4x110 for 4x114.3 as well, I'm in MN so it wouldn't be too far of a drive to meet up and trade bolt patterns

 

True, and I'm hoarding all the LE wheels!

 

4x110 can mean only one kind of wheel to make the switch for, thats right WAFFLES!
