Yes...Is anyone willing to share the CAD file for the brackets?

what a community.

I dont mind sharing any knowledge I have of my car. I have a t3/t4 fitted m10b20 MS2 '81 street maniac monster, so any questions welcome.

really thought that it is not that big of a deal to share the blueprint so that we don't have to do the same job twice.

Agree, but apparently no one has access to it?

More info on your street monster is more than welcome btw, but prolly belongs to the off topic section?

Don't you have them fitted to your car? Or are you using the volvo upgrade?

Is there a chance that you could measure them up?

Can't do a decent job without taking it all apart which I'm not prepared to do if you don't mind. Better keep watching this place, the brackets do pop up every now and then.

Believe Jason had them made, I had them remade by a local business in an even better quality and I'm trying to get him to make some more but he's not willing to share any info about them.

Ideally you just need a pair to copy or the CAD drawing. They're basic enough but measurements need to be accurate obviously.

problem is - noone wants to measure them. which is quite simple and a great thing for the community.
the profit that you can make off of making them is going to barely cover your pair, so it's not really worth to hide it, have no idea why noone signed up for this.
in our community you would get thrown cakes at for that. and no sweet ones, be sure of that.

its not that mate.. people bought them and then stuck them on the car and it means that you cant get a chance to measure them? nothing to do with price, when we got them they were v.cheap.

If anyone has a bracket I can get cads done. I have cads for the front and rear brake setup on my e21 and I've passed them to a few engineers for pricing but they are only suitable for 300mm disks and not standard e21 323 disks.
