No. I asked Evasive about it and they said it wouldn’t work.

Unfortunately the train never left the station.

I emailed them after getting way more than 5 required responses and said what can you do for us pricing wise?

they responded with “Nothing. We can’t (won’t?) build these for 2,200 anymore, let alone at a group buy discount.”

They say they are going to reoffer this sometime in the future, at an increased cost (2-300 more).

I’m sad, I wanted them! I’ve been throwing the idea around of actually producing a similar kit myself.... the only part they built was the caliper mounting bracket and the rotor hat. I’d love to build it again with custom depth hats so that nobody would ever need spacers again.

If you could do that and do a kit similar to the SBG / RR rear RX8-S197 kit where the user can buy off the shelf rotors instead of custom ones I can see it being a huge success!

That would be the goal. Hats made for rings that have a reasonable replacement cost, and hats made at custom heights that would clear your specific wheel. Then the rings would be off the shelf.

Per their sales email:

We’ll be tooling up to produce another short production run for this kit in late March, early April. The calipers have been ordered and will arrive around this time as well.
