Here's pictures to show the slight rubbing of brakes as well as how fucking sick they look with the burly JVAB suspenders in the background.
Some burly 7/16-20 press in bits are only $4 per so that looks to be the route I'll take. Have to take apart my spare uprights to send just the part that needs that pressed in taken care of as well as put in some nice M14X1.5 wheel studs and new bearings. Grant Hughes |

Worked on my car for about 7 hours last night. Mostly and nearly done, yet feels so far away.
The two coolers in the front are for oil (driver's side) and p/s fluid. You can see the Honda remote reservoir on the passenger side as I'm using the Thundertird remote p/s pump as I couldn't get the lid off with the Bailey reservoir. The four line remote oil filter is also over there with a AN-4 outlet that will feed the turbo, and the stock turbo oil feed location now has a pressure sender. The oil temp sender is on the filter feed as well. The radiator is about 3/4" behind the cross support bar, which in the near future will serve as part of the front skidplate mount. All the passenger side coolant lines have been eliminated and a coolant temp sender was put into the lower intake manifold. I'll have to relocate that some day if/when I get rid of coolant going through the lower. I have a stock lower, and a gutted upper which will likely make for less than ideal flow, but for now huge, optimal power isn't yet the priority. Chuck W motor mounts, ATR header, and .63AR turbo on the passenger side. My planned AN fittings are not going to work with the manifold so I have to figure out a oil return from the turbo. Am going to chop up a wastegate bracket to make an additional turbo support on the top of the turbo to valve cover this week sometime additionally hopefully.

It's technically always for sale. But no, I am not selling it. Wife won't let me. I'd explain why I listed it, but it's personal.
Put on the whale tail today, and worked on a bunch of other random stuff under the hood. Back to the waiting for parts to arrive game for the moment. And have to figure out if this p/s pump will work. Grant Hughes |

Just put the arches and side skirt on to take a picture for the CHCA program. Still have to fit them properly, as well as a bit of work to make the front bumper look cleaner. But it's a rally car, clean lines disappear quickly when you hit things, so I probably won't put too much effort into it. I love the first picture though.
