GB: RX7 caliper adapters, etc

[bwh13]

I've already looked into making less than the 10 sets of brackets as far as my profits go and it just doesn't make economic sense.

I have to pay the CNC mill programmer a fixed rate for the Solidworks program, plus the attendent costs of material and the machine time to make the parts.

When it's all said and done, the amount of $ I'd have to charge is well above what it appears most want to pay for the brackets.

A pair of brackets that I make in large quantities for other applications go for $160 retail; for a GB I usually drop that down to $125 if I get a minimum of 10 orders.

I wish I could just make the brackets and wait for orders to come in, but with the economy being what it is I have to use my capital to make the products I sell the most of.

I will extend the deadline until the end of the week if that would encourage more participation.

I can also make the rotors available if people want to get the brackets made themselves; I use the Corrado rotors in several kits now and can easily have them machined to the proper hole size.

Glad to hear you're going to let this run a bit longer, if this doesn't work out, I'd still be interested in the rotors :)

Did we get anyone else in on this?

[E30_pilot]

Can we get a list going? How many people do we need? I'm in for a set brackets and regular rotors. Paypal ready

Shoot Brain an email, he will give you all the details or PM me to get payment info, might as well ask Brain to get a list up here.

Status update? If this isn't happening I have other stuff I'd like to spend the cash on.

I spoke to Brian earlier and we still only had five guys...something tells me that we will be getting refunds soon.

[bwh13]

Well this looks like this isn't going to go. Only 5 of the participants sent payments, and I can't justify the costs with that number. I'll be issueing refunds today to those that sent in the payments.

Thanks to those who expressed interest, perhaps another time or different project.

I would also be interested if you DO decide to go ahead.

Either way I am wondering, what year vehicle the rotors need to be front and what modification needs to be done to the rotors.

Thanks,
Matt

89-91 Corrado G60 rotors, centric hole opened to 66mm...I have 10 sets of rotors that I was going to do for the buy. I can still make them if anyone wants a pair.

Brian, That'd be like $130 shipped right?

So is this a no go?

I got bored in class one day and made the solidworks model and paths.

[bwh13]

Yeah I wish I had the ability to do that it would save a lot of $ that I spend on first time parts...
