Vette caliper modelled

A semi-accurate (hand measurements) model of the vette caliper has been added to the assembly:




before ordering the rotors, which I nearly did, I realized it might be a good idea to see what the guys over at rejsa.nu would say. After all, they have some experience with these sort of things.

Corvette brake upgrade adapter - second revision

As you can see, I did a bit of work on the design of the C4 brake upgrade adapter. The model of the rotor was modelled from measurements given to me by Art at corvette central. I guess I should be placing an order for those rotors soon now that I finally have the money.



Here we have a slight quirk. Although I consider this design better than the original design mainly because it makes use of the original threads (the original design, which can be found over at pennocks fiero forum or bubbajoe's website, required the threads in the upright to be removed and the adapter threaded to take the M12 bolts) it's not without quirks. I think I will make use of longer bolts and add nuts behind the upright to secure them. Probably not needed, but better safe than sorry.
