    3D prototypes and CNC'd parts for my 3000GT

    A DS motor mount bracket. Thinking about having this machined for me in billet aluminum.

    It would be about 1 kilo. Stock is 3 kilos...

    This first one I make there is no ac mount holes because I don't have on my car

    I'm also working on the alternator bracket. And the powersteeringbracket. These will save close to 2 kilos combined aswell.

    Thanks!

    Don't know if I want to attempt the PS bracket. So many holes at different angles. Measuring is what is time consuming. Making the parts itself when I have that is easy.

    Yes tryng to find someone to machine in billet alu for a good price.

    Motormount bracket in 2 other versions too. Depending on what ac delete you did you may still use the idler pulley so I added that. And a version for those who still have ac with the 2 mounting holes for that bracket.
