Hey Baz, your pics did not come through, it says "attachments" but there is nothing there.

I didn't know you made this kind of stuff, didn't see it on the web site.

Yeah because, countless people in Japan haven't been making Z32 caliper adapter brackets like that since 1989............

Mattndew76, if you make me beautiful caliper brackets to mount my Mazda FC3S 4-pot calipers on my 510 spindles, I will let you touch any one of my rare parts from Japan for 10 minutes.
Oh, and I'll pay you too.

Nah, just mystified as to why you would want to denigrate one of the people who has kept the 510 alive and fast.
What kind of development work have you done lately?

The iPhone image is kinda crap quality but most of the plenum is done. Exterior machine work and the TB and cap is being machined today.

I think on the next one I will convex crown the interior edge of the Plenum Flange to keep from having 90 degree edge.
