Didn't get as much done as I would have liked today. . .weather was turning sour. . .

Cleaned up the brake hard lines and painted them. . .couldn't stand to put in them in without doing something to them. . .







Happy with the outcome. . .





Tested out a front wheel with the fender. . .happy with it so far. . .it will be interesting to see where it sits once the engine is back in etc etc etc. . .









Rotary Works elbow. . .very nice!





And as it sits tonight. . .




Also picked up some sort of dynamat sound deadening stuff, going to vacuum out the interior and place it in. . .I hope the weather is better tomorrow. . .

Interested in selling said TB. . .if you're interested that is. . .

Made some progress today. ..weather was a bit better and was able to lug it into the shop. . .

Carbonetics clutch installed. . .very interesting. . .push/pull adapter included. . .very nice kit. . .highly recommend. .





Rotary Works V-mount system. . .not as impressed by the kit as I had hoped. . .a very nice kit indeed but some things weren't either planned out or I'm just very ****. . .

The bracket provided for support of the rad and IC required some re-drilling. . .the IC piping to the elbow needs to be replaced. . .(makes no sense IMHO because it's their complete kit with elbow. . .should all work together). . .

The pics shows everything assembled for sake of the picture. . .the piping doesn't line up well on the intake side. . .the length as well as the angle. . .

On the positive side, the IC piping is minimal. . .I love the overall design to it. . .It was easy to piece together and all the necessary hardware is provided. . .a favourable kit if you're willing to do the extra mile and do all the ducting etc (good bling as well. . .looking forward to seeing how well it cools)







Twin Precision 46mm Wastegates. . .

it looks like someone took the origin fenders in the car in back and molded them with the re-a ones.

edit: PM purerx7 if you're interested, I bet he'll know if they're not what I said.

Drifting, nothing pro though, don't want a full cage, fire suppression etc etc etc. . .time attack, groceries, road trips, just enjoy the car everywhere. . .

Really debating building a full-out race car. . .especially after working on the Yokohama cars. . .

I got the tape from the other driver. . .just enough to do what I wanted. . .I'll ask where they got it from. . .pretty sure it's from one of the sponsors. . .(Mishimoto comes to mind. . .)
