Well, I just got my shipment of parts in from Pelican, which included brand new 4-lug Zimmerman bremsheiben (brake rotors) I bought these because the old rotors were redrilled 4-lugs, and I didn't want to fork up the money for 914-6 parts.
Does anyone know of a shop that will redrill these somewhere close to Vista, CA? My regular machine shop doesn't have have the setups to do it and the closest one that I don't like, can't do it either. Where can I get these re-drilled? (The closer the better...) Thanks, Ethan |

I had a set done at one of my locals , one would'nt touch em . The one I did get did a first rate job , all cnc eqip, ISO std shop. Upon picking them up and paying for them , I try to always pay cash , they wouldn't do a reciept as they didn't want them on thier books or be connected paperwork wise for the LIABILITY factor that I was modifing a car that would be driven on the streets and possible saftey and lawsuit factors . It didn't bother me that it was the way they wanted to do buisness, they just seemed afraid to be connected , although they did a great job of converting , I will probably not ask them again as automotive was not thier forte.
Good luck . Jaxdream |
