Rings got here today. --> posted by Jeff92se on September 30, 2003 at 12:04:50: : I was sick all weekend so I took Monday off to fiddle with the bracket. To summarize. : 1) Getting the hole size is easy. (use the caliper) : 2) Getting the shape of the hub to fit the Maxima side is easy. It's just a gentle curve. : 3) Getting the shape of the 300z side bracket is not difficult. : 4) Getting the distance inbetween the holes maxima holes to 300z/Cobra bracket holes is difficult. The way the bolts mount to each side is the perfect way to annoy anyone trying to take a decent measurement. I got about 3 wood brackets made but when it was test fit, I didn't get the fitment I wanted. Remember we only about about a 1/4" from the caliper hitting the rotor to the caliper scraping the inside of the wheel. You want the smallest clearance you can get away with ie.. 1/8" so you get the greatest pad enagement, but then again you want some decent clearances so everyone's car can fit these. : Also the holes will be 3mm closer together than the pics on tt.net so there's even less material inbetween the holes(not really a big concern but it should be mentioned) : I'm sure Matt will say it's not that hard but I'm having a little bit of a hard time. One good thing though. Having the rings will help center the rotor. (so I don't have to center the rotor w/ 2 lugs). : I'll keep trying though. Replys:
