Stephen, I am trying but I don't think Mark is all that computer literate. He did mention he required his daughters help in reading this thread. I will encourage him further.

Briefly. He claims to have developed the following:
1. The drawings and CNC files for a billet lower arm for the Jag rear end on an RMC. This arm uses HD heim joints for toe/camber adjustment. This arm will mate to a standard Jag alloy rear carrier.
2. Engineering drawings and tooling for an outboard brake kit using aftermarket calipers for Jag rear hubs.
3. Drawings and CNC files to convert a rear Jag alloy carrier to accept an upper control arm.
4. A front end kit to alter the mountings of the springs/shocks on the front suspension to be more upright and to provide better travel and camber control/adjustment.
5. Drawings of a new pedal box to provide dual brake master cylinders with balance bar and does away with the power booster. ( possibly not unlike the CR system but with master cylinders sized for Jag/aftermarket calipers.)
6. Has sourced manufacturing contacts who have the machinery and will manufacture this stuff in Brissy at reasonable prices.
7. Patterns for casting a wheel center for knock off wheels with perfect RMC offsets allowing really wide rears and front wheels.

All this developed, proven, and running on his car.

Heaps more minor stuff like a hydraulic hand brake kit. ( bluddy jag cable setup is terrible).

Certainly all very interesting stuff. Lets hope he gets in here and tells us about all his developments.

At some time in the future I am going to his place to have a look at the bits on his car.
