Hey man, sorry for the total uselessness on my behalf. Can do you the brackets including bolts as a kit $150, all you need to find are 910 or s12 hubs. You need to get the 280mm or 296mm discs, gtst or gtr, plus calipers to suit. They need to be modified a little to fit. My engineer charged me $25 each disc (Changed from 5 stud to 4 stud).

I had the privilege of seeing this masterpiece in person last weekend.
It has to be said that the workmanship and quality is breathtaking.
You buggers better have it ready in time for nationals! I figure you two owe me a ride in a fast datsun......

Thanks Bart.
We are obviously hoping to have ready for nationals but as is the case with most projects it's about "LACK OF MONEY" that might slow progress down a bit. I'm being really, really nice to mum/missus who has the clasp firmly shut on the purse atm but you never know.

Also Bart,
Forgot to answer the ride question.
I have a kamakazi son who's a reasonable peddler so I'm sure he will take you in a fast Datsun when it's on the road.
Apparently I'm to old and decrepit to drive fast and also need trainer wheels according to him.
Bernie.

I think you have too many BMW's.
Surely this project's back is broken from a dollars in perspective.
Although, if it's not ready this year, there will always be next year.
Don't rush it for nationals sake. Next year my next beast should be close to running.
