GK fit Rear Brake Bracket by Scarebird

After reading on this thread here:

(GK Fit Rear Disc)

and posting a bit, there has been enough interest for a new post to see if there's interest.

I have been in contact with Scarebird brakes who made a bracket for the first gen Fit. (Scarebird Classic Brakes).
Fit Forums GD Rear Disc Conversion by Scarebird

They said they would be interested in seeing if it's viable if we had 10 orders, as well as if we could get them a spindle and trailing arm for them to examine. If someone was around Albuquerque, New Mexico and could stop in, that might work as well.

Anyone interested in this? Let's try and figure it out.

Just to update, it would be $90 a bracket, and their current kit for the GD uses ITR parts.

Two more and we're there! Then we need some logistical things figured out.

Some people from the GE side of things did some research, turns out there's enough similarities between our cars and second gen fits to use the same upgrades in brake master cylinder, provided you switch to the appropriate booster.

The trick will be if they can get a car to look at, last time I was interested in this I sent pm's to a few of the guys in the New Mexico part of the forum and got no response.
