did you only give them the measurements cuz here is the auto cad drawing for them. might make it easyer to get it going

I have these same drawings that you linked to, in my possession. They are incomplete, which is part of the reason the project has been put on hold.

Furthermore... such pieces would be VERY expensive to build in small quantities.

1) we do not run a sweatshop and dont pay our employees 50cents a day.
2) we do not use cheap, questionable, material found in ebay style factories.
3) we already have a very very very hard time trying to sell $100 pulleys...

How many of you would seriously be interested in spending some serious money for some serious products....

I have to invest to R&D, and I have to invest in building 50 pieces if we decide to make a production run... in order to bring the price within reason.

Show of hands please...

You know my hand is still up Mike :D !

i can possibly make this at work....

i'm having an 85 gts delivered tonight. I'M BACK! thats why i was asking about it. i have a friend who has 2 fc's sitting in his yard rotting away. so i have 2 sets of breaks.

good deal

bad ass!! the more 86's the better! congrats man!

post up soon...

So are there other front brake upgrades easier to pull than the FC3's ??

These seem a little overkill any ways...

they are for a stock or even a 200hp 86. better pads and braided ss lines over the bare rubber lines would be sufficient.

if you're hitting 250+, a dual piston setup with a larger bore mc would be advisable. or upgrading to 15" wheels and larger rotors and calipers and again a bigger bore mc.

I'm having brackets made by a local machine shop. No... it's probably not going to be cheap. I should have a test bracket within the next couple of weeks to check fitment of all the components and make sure no changes need to be made to the program.

The bracket I'm having made uses the fc caliper with a mini cooper s rotor. There is a company in Australia that has a bracket in production and I believe he quoted me around $270 shipped for a pair. They are designed to be used with a modified civic sir rotor which is the same as the US integra (DC2 chasis). Here is the link if anyone wishes to explore this option... http://www.ajps.com.au/parts/fc_brake_c ... apters.asp

If anyone is interested in the set I'm having made I'll have a quote on cost of machine work as soon as the first one is made.

i'm almost done with the drawings but i forgot about them til now.... i'm lazy.

plus i wouldn't need this setup so there's no point in me trying to make them at work. but they are fun to draw....
