Oh, I just saw the note. That's an email address, not a website.
Thanks for this posting.

Tried Martin's website and I get "Under Construction".
Could you email me the info and price list.
Thanks.

Hey guys. I spoke with Martin and he was VERY helpful and friendly. I highly recommend getting in touch with him personally if you're in any way interested in his services. And he doesn't just do brakes! He's a small engineering company that has big capabilities. Below is his response to me about the brakes as well as some of his additional services.
My kit is designed in such a way as to fit under any 10" wheel without the spacers etc that other kits require, however the difference is that my kits may need to be adjusted to suit your wheels, some 10" wheels are not suitable, Mamba's being the worst of the bunch. by adjustment I mean once ordered we take your wheel or wheel dims and machine to suit, so some wheels you will get maybe a 7.9" disc whilst some you can get a 8.4"
The callipers are our own design and manufactured in house using high grade materials they are multiple piston callipers and the pistons can be aluminium or stainless steel customer choice.
a few other products: race/rally flywheel backplates being one of these..
One of the photos is of my polished bearing cap for front drum and rear drum braked minis
Here are some pictures of his handywork. I have PDF of all his parts/services and pricing. I would post it here, but if you want it, I think it's better for his business if you email him directly and just let him know that Richard or Cameron sent you.

Drop him a note. There is a time difference, but he is great with email.
(I assume everyone knows how to replace the "at")

This could be a REALLY big deal if they fit under ALL 10" wheels. Would you happen to have the total dimensions? If we had those, people could also measure their wheels to see if they will fit their wheels. I know there are some guys machining 8.4" calipers to fit under some 10" wheels right now, but they stil foul the old steelies and some other types. This would be a pretty awesome breakthrough. Thanks for sharing.

In the process of finding someone who manufactures automatic transmission parts for the Mini's I found one that also manufactures also alloy calipers to fit on 8.4" (std discs) but under 10" rims.
Contact Martin Altria of KMP Engineering/MRA Minis in the UK
He is assembling my forward clutch pack and sending.
