I now live in a city with more rotaries than I've seen in my life in one city (aside from Sevenstock, Rotary Revolution, and DGRR) and yet the people here have no desire whatsoever to get together and hang out, share stories, help one another with their cars. Nothing. This **** is crazy.

Hah, yeah, I want to make sure the tranny behaves itself before it snows, but other than that, I'm okay with putting it away. I have a few tricks up my sleeve for over the winter.

Anybody have a stock brake line (soft) for the rear of an FC? I am finishing a car for a guy, and one of his was torn, and the stainless lines appear to be lost in the mail.

I'll give ya 5 bucks (and a Mt. Dew in classic Blake style) for it.

Thanks!

Blake

Remove mesh grill in front aero, Lower it, Space Wheels at least 50mm, remove spoiler and replace with GT wing, Paint, DONE!

If you pull it off correctly that **** will look like a JGTC car

What are the plans for paint? color wise

Stop trying to give advice when your car is all dented, paint faded, scratched, and ricey...
Oh...wait a minute...that's me.
Nevermind.

Meh, mesh grill keeps kamikaze critters out of my intercooler. I've already had a raccoon commit suicide on my car once. I do want an adjustable spoiler and the non pop up headlights. I also still need the 99 spec front turn signals. I know I need wheel spacers and also I need to build a bracket for the front bumper for support and build a dash. On top of all that I still need a tune and a new steering rack

Oh, and I plan on getting her painted a semi-gloss black with some red pin striping. A tribute to the shine runners in my ancestry complete with taillight cutouts

Mocking up the headers. All plugs can be accessed from the top without any issues.


























^^^That^^^ is what the final layout will look like.
