Unfortunately, there is no LINKS page on the FSAE.com website, so I put one together to help everyone.

If you have any more, just post a reply, and I'll update the list.

I hope this helps everyone. This is what the internet is all about, passing along free information so one can learn. Thanks to all who helped me with additional links.

Thanks for compiling these awesome lists!

Some additions:

Brakes: Stoptech http://www.stoptech.com

Electrical: Analog Devices http://www.analog.com/

Software: Algor http://www.algor.com

Fluids: Bardahl http://www.bardahl.com/ (Check out our 2000 car on their front page )

No problem. Just trying to give a little back to something that brought me a lot of happiness and friends.

I know how hard it is to find parts, especially when you just get started.

Suspension (and alternate forum):
http://www.auto-ware.com/

I'm suprised you don't have these guys on the brake list
http://www.hawkperformance.com/motorsports/

i think there is also a brake manufacturer called mr brake but don't hold me to that.

It's The Brake Man http://www.thebrakeman.com

yeah thats it. btw do you know if they make good stuff? from the pics and descriptions it looks ok but you can never tell.

This message has been edited. Last edited by: kozak,

we used their Tornado F1 calipers this year (which are equiv to the dynalite single) and 10.25" Revolution Rotors. The only issue we had with them was a slightly out of spec rotor which they replaced without any questions. Their support is pretty good.

can they custom make rotors for say, four attachment points instead of ten.

can they? probably. will they? i doubt it.

The smallest they've got is a 10.25" which is 3bolt on 5.5" bc.

what about price wise i talked to one of their sales guys, but he hasn;t given me a price yet.

Any good manufacturing ones? I've been trying to find a list of all tolerances so I can make up an excel macro that spits out the dimensions for a hole/shaft given diameter and desired fit. Found some at http://www.ecs.umass.edu/mie/labs/mda/dlib/fit_tol/fitandtol.html but not all of them. (BTW, it's a fairly basic page, but might come in handy...)

(EDIT: Ok, so it's not quite design, but still... might help to get drawings done quicker... or something...)

Here is an awesome thread on another forum (which is a good forum for anyone interested in locosts) that gives links to almost all bike manuals out there.

What dampers are these?

http://www.oramitalia.com/

It never occured to me before that this might be useful, but here's a page that has the diameter, weight and current capacity of most wire gauges (specs are for copper, but I don't imagine there are too many people using aluminum wiring)

Wire-Gauge Ampacities
