Need clutch reinforcement kit and the site is down

My clutch bracket broke several days ago. I need the reinforcement kit to get the car mobile again. If you know when Mazsport will be up and running again, or a company with a similar product, or have a spare, please message me or post a reply. This is a somewhat urgent matter, and any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated.


To the sticklers: Sorry if this is the wrong forum.



Thanks

Hey Charles.

I bought the Mazsport clutch pedal kit but I have not installed it yet.

Do you know if there are any major differences between yours and the mazspot?

Just kidding.

Mazsport's is a bolt-on kit that requires drilling something (from what I have been told) and the BHR service is simple stitch-welding of the entire pedal assembly wherever two pieces of metal are joined.
Interesting.

The only reason I haven't installed it yet was because Scott never sent any install instructions and I dont wanna start drilling my pedal without knowing exactly how.

Maybe I will sell it and order yours. Are they on back order?

Hey Scotty!

If you had your heart set on the Mazsport bracket I can sell you mine. It's brand new.
