Hello everyone. My name is Bohdan. I've been a member of this forum for a while now. I dont really post much but I'm a big z enthusiast and have owned a 1974 260z with a RB25 swap. I am the founder of staightboost, you can see the built pictures of the z on instagram under "straightboost". I do a lot of custom fabrication and I have been thinking of making the z32 brakes fit on my s30 front and rear and making the brackets available to you guys.
I want to know how many of you guys would be interested in a set. They will be somewhere from per set ( front or rear) $300-400 depending on the difficulty.

$300-$400 for only front or rear brackets is outrageously over priced (especially since it won't cost you more than $20-$80 to make them yourself). Silvermine Motors sells whole brake kits for ~$350-$450: http://www.silverminemotors.com/

You can also adapt Z31 parts onto S30's and S130's for junk yard cost...

Not trying to deter you, but research price points before selling to the masses. :)
