				Jon recently brought a very old thread back from the dead on CC. Despite his original topic name  (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) , it's about half brake tech and half a test case for emachineshop.com. Custom brake bracket Since I can't use Porsche brakes in my class, the custom machining test case was of greater interest to me. Ergo, I put this in General Discussion instead of Suspension Tech, but either would be appropriate. A local shop is currently making some parts for me but it was clear they weren't that interested in doing small projects. |

				What I found interesting is that it's a good benchmark piece for the service - the brackets Jon designed are in the range of size, complexity, finish, and cost for something that I might actually consider as a custom project. The beautiful telescope bracket that someone posted on CC didn't really give me a feel for what a "real world" (racing!) part might cost.
