Intake is one of those on the list of projects, a few more in front of it.
The current "Big" project - Wilwood 4 Piston Dynalite II's and 11.75" Rotors Yummy

Its ALOT of work, Speedturn wrote a big article on Mazspeed a year or so ago on how to do the conversion, which he has on his car. Also includes a Dual Brake Master Cylinder.
I'm going to writeup a complete step by step how to.
from maching the stock rotor down to accept the Wilwood rotor and making a mounting bracket to mount the Caliper
then on to making a conversion to the dual master cylinders.
The parts are pretty cheap, $89 Calipers, $39 Rotors
But alot of custom machining work. thankfully a good friend and his dad have a shop who will do the work for me for a nice Red Lobster dinner.
I've been wanting to do this conversion for a LONG time, and am now getting around to it......

Well it sounds good. Im intrested in the bracket to bolt on 2nd or 3rd gen calipers to gslse suspention, unless you can make something that will become a lot easier to adapt


BTW, i found a battery box for $77.00us @ barnett performance(like summitt) u know anywere cheaper

Thats pretty cheap, I'm going to install a Sealed Gel Cell this time. Way to much work installing a battery box in the back, hard to make it fit.

I was wating to hear word from the guy in Canada doing the 2nd Gen brake conversion, but after months of no replies I gave up...
