[Fot] Public Service Announcement, knockoff Datsun brake drums

[Yellow04]

A couple years ago when I was accumulating parts for my TR250 vintage racer I sourced a pair of brake drums that I knew were aftermarket copies of the Datsun 240Z finned aluminum drum. These copies were getting decent reviews at the time, so I tried a pair.

So I am prepping for the next event and found this. These drums ran 8 weekends. The other drum shows a small crack, looks like it would grow to look like this one pretty quick. 

So anyone have a source for some real Datsun Z-car drums?
