took me about a year.... i even harassed my contacts in japan to beg TOP SECRET to make me one... TOP SECRET agreed and even got my hopes up and crushed it.... they agreed to produce it for an extra $500 bucks but when they "lost the schematics" all that went out the window.... they said no we wont make it again

...but gold would work too..... has the right properties for softness and conductivity. Go grab some from the vault!

you were correct i had to buy a new dremel..... i was suppose to to the cutting on the other side of the varis tonight but i got off late... the good news is i took my z out today and the side that was cut was a success it didnt get wet... the open side though however i had to run out during the heavy rain to pop my hood and cover my other maf sensor with a trash bag (since they are pointing straight up) not kool... ill try to make the cut tomorrow... my dad is leaving in about a week i believe so i should be able to have my machinist fab that adapter bracket im also gonna have him machine me a finishing spacer for my top secret knob...
