After putting together a few brake kits and having to deal with Kartboy and KNS adapters that both need modifying to suit Brembo's and are not cheap, Ive decided to get my own made that are a direct bolt on.

Theyre machined out of 6061 aircraft grade alloy and are a direct bolt on fit for Brembo rears. They are supplied with the correct mounting bolts.

Best of all, theyre made locally for a fair whack less than the other overseas alternatives. I R & D'd these myself and had them made through a local engineering firm.

$150 to your door.

EDIT*

This morning Ive come across some issues with these and FHI 2 pot rears. I now have a template to make ones to suit these, but they will be about a month off.

Interested.
You have these "in stock" to suit Gen 3 and Brembo's?
Cap bolts or standard bolts too?

Yes ready to send out by weeks end. I have bit of an order to fill atm.

Theyre made moreso to suit the Gen3 and 4 multilink rear due to the limited space. Ive counter bored the caliper to adapter hole and use domed cap heads. This keeps the profile very low to fit the multilink setup.

The oem bolts are retained to mount the adapter to hub.

I'll have pics tommorrow of an adapter mounted to my Gen4.

Do they fit Brembo to Gen 3 same way? Or is it different bolt pattern?

Direct fit for your Gen3. Gen4 is the same as Gen3 essentially with the multilink rear end.

Thanks Adam. Form and function. :D

Haha, Cheers Frank.

Im about to start a new design which has to be thinner to accomodate WRX 2 pots. This WILL work for both WRX and Brembo 2 pots and due to being thinner will be made out high tensile steel.

Keep tuned............. :D

Im going to get started on this next week as Ive had 3 parties keen on WRX pot adapters.

I was in at race brakes yesterday and they were probably not going to get any more Kartboy adapters in as the price has gone up and its not worth it for them.
