AE86 rear Traction bracket~ Beta V1.0 trial production

Finally come back from KL. Really took some time off there and goes around to do some market survey. 

And while i'm away, the wider metal plate i ordered also had arrived. So, i took the material and the drawing and send it to my neighbor. 
And start milling out the desire piece to my bracket. 
 With their 5 horse power mean machine.
 That's carbite steel cutter he's using. slicing through the metal like tou-fu~ wow.
 received it after 5 hours of labour (>_<) that's 40bucks/hour. Do the maths.
 some slight alteration and on it goes. All the holes fit perfectly.
 And finally, it's welded together and a brief comparison with V0.09~ spot any different? 
 And give it a nice red coat to at least protect it from rust. 
All done and with *12.3 lb/in rated allen-key bolt with zinc coated nuts. It had 2 level setting which is 42mm offset and 64mm offsets.

I'll be making 10 sets in the first batch to test the respond. Any one interested can contact me via my contact link.

yup~ refer to later post. I had installes the bracket and the 'hopping' effect of rear axle is reduced dramatically. And the sliding also more manage-able. KP61 only need minor alteration. Will revise KE/KP model if got enough order. currently i had 3 KE owner want.
