    ..just continuing on from this - I can get brackets made up pretty cheaply(<$300 pr) if its possible to have them cut out of 2 x 10mm plates and welded together. (have a mate who works for a laser cutting mob).

    I'm going to pull my struts off this weekend and see what I can come up with - in the meantime does anyone have any ideas if this is possible? The CAD drawings posted above have the material thicknesses at 9mm and 11mm if it were made up from two plates welded together.

    Could these be made from mild steel or will there be issues?

    Mild Steel would be fine, that is what my plates are milled from.

    Also, the 2 plates welded idea is also a good one. The original plates that "Twinky" from Toymods made were 2 separate items that were doweled then welded together.

    I've seen master cylinders with 2 outlets and 3 outlets, I'm assuming you only need the 2 outlet master? Whats the 3rd outlet for?

    3rd outlet is probably for left/right front brakes. Means you can get rid of the factory splitter on the firewall.

    I once created a CAD design of one of these adapters. I reckon someone who I did if for may be/or sent it to Twinky!

    I should've patented it!
