So keen to see what the brakes look like. Are you planning on sticking with the green or going for something else?
Yeah, I'll stick with the green for now, if I change the colour of the rims then I will probably change the brakes too, but neither of those is going to be in the near future. I finished buying the caliper though, now I just need my old rims to sell and then I'll pick up some rotors and braided lines.
I have done a couple of thinks recently, I have wanted to replace the stock pitch stop mount for a while now.
I opted for an Output Motorsports mount.
Side by side with the factory mount it is a lot more rigid.
It was a pretty easy install, TMIC off and then just two bolts through the pitch stop.
It has improved the transmission feel and it feels like the car is more responsive.
I also installed my Mishimoto radiator, in my initial install attempt I managed to break the overflow nipple...
I ended up getting a replacement nipple and taking it to a local place to have it repaired.
Take 2 of the install went a lot better, I put the fans on the radiator then lowered the whole lot in as one.
I had to trim the rad hoses as the mishi rad is a lot thicker than the stock item, and I also didn't connect the driver's side fan as it would touch the top rad hose. I also cable tied around the top hose to make sure it doesn't get hit by the alternator pulley. Hopefully new/thinner rad hoses will be happening soon along with a couple of other goodies.
Anyway, some glamour shots of the rad:
