Looks damn good man. I know all the stuff you had too do. I bet you had fun with those goddamn pedals. I sure did. Oh and mounting that master cylinder, good times.

When I did the swap I didnt even know how to drive a stick, and even after the 13b swap, I still think its the best thing i've ever done to my car. Now get out there and drop that clutch!

Too many cars? Whats that?

Im actually trying to move around some finaces so I can buy another 84 -SE thats sitting in my neighbors yard . Im thinking it would make a better daily driver than my 85 GSL I have right now.
