LarsZ, are these files received from Hen ?
If I have the correct files - this can make entire process simple and quick (and I think - little cheaper).

Thanks ! I will compare them with Hen's drawings. If these files are NOT SolidWorks ones, I can process further without waiting Hen's permission (he wrote that he can't export files in DWG/DXF format AFAIK).

Jamie....no specific hurry. But if you were to fabricate them, i´d take a set of your hands.

I didn't understand well that.

Another question - about material. Steel or aluminium alloy ? I see that forum member already made such adapters from aluminium but is this strong enough - your opinions ?
There is one more thing - I presume that these adapters are designed do adapt RX7 4-pots to stock AE86 brake discs. I'm planning to use different (bigger) discs on my car anyways (some Prelude ones + PCD redrill). This is impotant due to different disc offset and diameter. Just FYI.

PS: If someone else wants a set - drop me a PM or better use this thread. Will try to deliver deadline and pricing information soon.

As far as i know, the kit normally includes rx-7 discs as well. Remember something about 280mm discs. They need to be drilled to fit the hachi pattern though, but i´m guessing thats minor stuff.

Okay, then the adapters (shown on drawings above) are designed for RX7 discs AND calipers on AE86 strut(hub) ? Can someone confirm this ?
