Yep! Believe it or not, there exists a performance version of this very car. The Japanese are silly like that so they put a 4agze from an aw11 and a close ratio 6 speed into one and sold it. Only in japan, but hey.

As far as going back to your corner, no need. I am well aware I am on a divergent path from..... Evetythimg here. Might as well have fun with it.

Took this pic to give you a better idea of how ridiculous these are. I knew they were big when I ordered them.But then I did the math this morning. The lugnuts themselves are 60mm, and the spikes add 30mm, so they're a total of 90mm long, or just shy of 4". It's sort of hilarious.

Ben Hur indeed.

Did your sticker guy ever make any stickers? I'll be up your way in a few weeks.

Yeah. They're all made to order right now, but it takes no time to get them done. Let me know and I'll get them.

Oh boy! Back from the dead.

And shes being a butt. So, since ive moved to florida, she seems to think she doesn't need to idle sometimes. Probably due to fuel. Go to take her out this morning, and she's got a sizeable leak somewhere in the brake system, just after the master cylinder. Pedal to thr floor, right side caliper not engaging, and a nice fluid puddle on the driveway. Orientation of it tells me its aft of the front brakes, shortly after the master. I thought florida was supposed to make cars last longer.

So. Good news bad news.

I tracked down the leak and its under the car in one of two central hard lines. Either p/n 47321 or 47322. Ddidnt manage to figure out which as i didnt get the car up on jack stands. This is good.

Bad news- nearest i can tell doing a one piece hard line under this car without a lift is nearly impossible. So i might have to pay the man do do it.

You won't die a fiery death if you don't have one piece factory routed brake lines, just sayin'. I've done a lot of miles in beaters with the new lines (sometimes hand made, sometimes the preflared sections and unions) zip tied to the old ones, especially with rear lines.
