I'm on a tight budget after buying the box and can build it if I can get the plans

So what you're asking for is a copy of something other people have spent money on?

Or something someone done a bad job of throwing together.. cheap isn't allways cheap like that..
I have only bad experience of giving plans of stuff to others. I construct things myself and i have only bad experience of giving plans and recommendations on things like this. You end up getting blame for other peoples lack of knowledge of how to fabricate.

Better to make it yourself and when you know it works and have tested the items on your own and other cars you can get small series made and sell cheap to pay for your own time used to construct and develop.

I have sold 6-7 self made rocklobster boxes for just i bit more than the US gearwheel kits, and 50-60 1600 adapters for g13 gearbox for approx half price of the US-made versions that do not fit properly. This small "business" and used parts sale has paid for much of my other mods and is a small but nice contribution to my Suzuki budget.
