I dont know, seems screwed up to me, the guy wants like $300 something dollars for two g*damn brackets to move the calipers out. I would feel like such a dirty whore if I actually paid him that kind of money. HE got all fancy and shit and CAD was claimed to have been used to make them. I call BULLSHIT, else the guy is just a stupid fucker. Making a bracket for that isn't THAT complicated. I know, I've looked at it. I could easily hack up a set myself on a damn mill and drill press in well under an hour and $5 in materials later. You can also bet your ass I'll post the drawings for it so others' can take it to a machinist and have them made. Probably cost you $50 at best to have them made up and would DEFINATELY be worth if it he was charging $100 for the set. $300 is just ridiculous - an obvious attempt to mooch the "big brake" market and overlook the actual value of what is being sold. If he is having them made on a CNC machine I could understand the costs, but that's the most expensive way you could make them and it isn't necessary to fabricate the brackets. A hand controlled mill and drill press is all you need.
: unless he would care to post exactly what "VR4" those rotors came from.
