i also have a set of the carbon headlight deletes i'll be running them for every event EXCEPT pikes peak, per the odd rule that dave just mentioned.

thanks victor! there is only one other option with the fittings and its silver/black. the lines the only option is the black lines unless i went with stainless braided which are the worst to work with.

thats the silly rule that requires me to have headlights for pikes peak.

 

more updates:

I am actually planning to go there since i have been invited by a friend. But looks like i will have a schedlure problem. I have to go to st tropez a same time for work. Its an awesome climb. I try to make it there though.

 

love the brakes! Good place to spend your money.

 

Oy, wth, Kev you KNOW that's been my number since I was at your shop last....2009......copycat...

 

i know you run the numbers, and only REALLY fast cars are allowed to so your good to go

however, i do believe i might have had the 463 earlier then 2009 i used it last time this car was together which i think was in 1988

 

646 is a better number anyway

 

When installing a bigger brake set up in the front like the one pictured, does the brake pedal feel any different? I've driven cars with BBK's and the pedal felt like it started to grab at a lower position, like the master wasn't able to push enough fluid to fill the bigger calipers quick enough. It felt the same no matter how many times you bled the brakes. Or do the higher end BBK's account for this type of thing? Does anyone make a modified master cylinder? Is it necessary?

Also, is it recommended to do front and rear? I know these sound like noob questions, but I've never had to look into modifying the brakes to that extent, nor will I ever have to.

Great looking car by the way. I'm incredibly jealous of what you guys are doing. Congratulations, stay safe, and good luck!

 

well after pulling an almost all-night nighter, we got the car fired up and were able to drive it around the parking lot a few times. small problem with my OBD2 connector wiring so i wasn't able to scale the injectors, but they were somewhat close so it runs and drives (just doesn't idle perfect).

on to the good stuff:
installing the core support after putting the engine in:


bumper is on:



under the hood:



lots of AN fittings:




all together after the mainden voyage:


we are borrowing Joshs wheels so we could see fitment with this size wheel/tire combo. we will be going with the black wheels when enkei decides to sponsor us

 

are you guys still having an ABS, do i see it right?

 

Yes you are seeing it correctly. I actually have the rs abs delete setup but the abs is pretty good so we are going to keep it.

 

Are you going to make an air box for your air filter?
