Is this bolt on or do I need to get brackets made to mount it?

He stated that he will make the brackets himself.

I guess a fair question is how much for the kit without the bracket? Also, I was a bit confused by the lines. Does the kit include lines but you'll get better ones for $50 extra?

650 shipped for the kit as is with caliper brackets, 695 for the kit with caliper brackets and dot lines(i found slightly cheaper ones).

if you don't want the caliper brackets i'd be willing to take 75 off of whatever the total is depending on your brake line choice. i just want to know i have a buyer before i take the time and very little money i have to make the brackets.

i'm currently working with Bhurlin right now on these. i'll let everyone know if he decides otherwise.

If you still have a setup avail mid month I'll be all over it. TC just took a quarter of my paycheck and I still have mortgage and bills/food to pay for.

alright, i just sent a pm to bhurlin asking him to get back to me about questions i had sent to him a month ago. had to push this aside as i forgot about it a little.

but i think i am going to go the part out route. i really don't want to spend the time and money to fab a caliper bracket only to have this not sell.

tanc, are you still interested in the hats?


added to ebay...

one thing to note on the ebay listing. in addition to the caliper bracket and mounting hardware, you will need to get the hard-soft line fitting. you can use this one for our cars. it might not fit perfectly with the tabs on the stock mount, but that's not really a big deal and judging by the picture i think it might.

So long story short... A couple months ago I went to go make up some test brackets out of some thick acrylic I had lying around. The mill at our school's shop I was using used to work perfectly. I only learned until after my holes came out funky looking that the mill had been screwed up and all my cuts were off, and I forgot about it until now.

So I got frustrated and went home. And at this point I've lost motivation and really don't feel like going through the process to make them(sorry Bill). I just want to sell the parts I have and I'll do it cheaply.

I'd still love to see someone with a stronger tuning bug than I complete this. I'll send the measurements I made with the kit. I doubt they're ready for a final bracket, but they'll get you close enough so that only minor adjustments will be needed for the final one. You will get everything else you need to do make a kit except for the caliper brackets and the hardware needed for the caliper bracket.

As I said, I'll sell this cheaply. It would be a great starting point for many other cars also(provided they have the same wheel bolt pattern). I'm no longer interested in making my money back. I'd prefer to not part it out just to make it easier to sell, and also because I want to see it completed. If I have to, I will though.

Let's make it 500 shipped. Pm or post up offers though.
