I agree this would not be a good way to go for a product to sell. From the perspective of the guys at FastBrakes this wouldn't even be legal without Engineering documentation and some kind of DOT certification. The backyard mechanic can get away with this sort of thing but not a company selling a product.projectB10 wrote:....

That sort of BB upgrade (cutting into the respective mounting points on both caliper and spindle) would not pass road use certfication (nor I suspect, pass scutineering for track use) where I live.
If I had seen this 2 years ago I think I would have done it myself. I can't believe that thread got by me.
No I get your point I just didn't want to engineer a system that I could only sell to people with big wheels. I wanted it to be available to everyone because I know a lot of guys are not happy with the look or performance of the stock brakes...and I was in it for the money.MrMazda92 wrote:Wyt, in all fairness do you expect a lot of people running stock wheels to buy $800+ brake setups?
Not a bash, just something that made me laugh a bit I'm sure that some people would, but typically people swap out their wheels before doing much else to a car.
