timg Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I just PM'd you about being the first (maybe) for the $445 package. Please let me know where to send the $$. Thanks! Tim Quote
dohc v6 Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Posted May 9, 2008 Looks like BIG TIM, will be the first. PM sent Quote
z34_nut Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Well, as soon as your own brake set up is complete, I'll be interested in the $339 package deal. Do you by chance have all the Gm part numbers for the front rotors, pads, and calipers? Quote

dohc v6 Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Posted May 9, 2008 Sounds like a plan. I should be done with this first set by the mid of next week. That should be done and ready for production. Quote
GhrarhG Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 How long will you be making these? Is this a one time deal, or would I be able to wait till later this summer? Quote
dohc v6 Posted May 12, 2008 Author Report Posted May 12, 2008 Yes, I will be making these for as long as I can. Tim got one set and I have one set left. It will take me about 2-3 weeks before I can get another set made. So if you would like to grab them, now is the time to get on it. This is not my only job, I do work so I ask that everyone please be patient with me as I am only one person. After the fronts are finalized I will work on a set for the rear if there is an interest and then Konis will be after that. But if you would like a set, please let me know early, that the easiest.

dohc v6 Posted May 16, 2008 Author Report Posted May 16, 2008 Should be getting the parts back from the machine shop today. I am waiting on watter jetter and then it has to be welded. Not to much longer. Quote
timg Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Sounds good. My dad just got in the calipers and brackets. I'm trying to verify that they're real GXP items. Once that's done, I'll have him send the brackets off to you. Thanks. Tim Quote
pwmin Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 cool, so y'all got everything and the assemblies were what you needed and clean enough? Quote
dohc v6 Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Posted May 21, 2008 Not sure I am in New York right now, helping the rents move into a summer house. I will back in the shop on Thursday and I will go ahead and see what came in and what not. Hopefully I can pick up the machined parts and get everything done by firday. Mark Quote
dohc v6 Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 Finally got a machine shop that will work with me. They are charging me $200 to do the first proto-type set. Once I get them back next friday, I will bring the knuclkes to the welder and have them welded on. After that, I hope everything fits and then they will be finished. Mark Quote
dohc v6 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Posted June 2, 2008 Replied. I am sorry for taking so long on this people, its has taken alot more work than I have expected. I have spent way over my budgeted amount, but hopefully I get some orders out of it. Mark Quote

dohc v6 Posted June 6, 2008 Author Report Posted June 6, 2008 Yep, I was told last week that the brackets were going to be done. I called today and they are not done. I am bringing them to my old machine shop he told me two weeks. If it was not for these damn machine shops I would have these done. M Quote
Artemis Posted June 6, 2008 Report Posted June 6, 2008 I've been trying to understand all the info here. 16" Stock 5-star will be a no go on these new brakes? Or will they fit? I'd love to get bigger brakes, but I also love my 5-stars Quote

GP4U2NV Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 I have not been on the boards for a long time. I didnt want to read through 24 pages. questions I have are: 1) You are making brackets for the Grand prix / Luminas with the "weird" suspension to fit what???? Are you fitting a monte carlos larger rotors with the 97-03 GP brake calipers? 2) Where do I sign up? Quote
