                    The brake linkage is straight from the e30LS1 guys except that they cut through the tower to get that bar to the firewall, we just went above it so we'd maintain structural integrity. When I'm at my machine next I'll look for some more pictures. It was one of the less painful bits. I didn't know that there was going to be a nice, painted cover for it until I saw it at the shop.

                      It's a shame it took a few extra weeks than we had expected, I really wanted to get the new interior in before the picnic as well. By the end of the summer I'm going to try to replace the dash with an HP Touchpad too, but that's still a ways out....

                        killer project man, I love the rims.
                        do you think that there will be enough meat under there to keep traction under some kind of control?

                          We're currently thinking that the greater problem will be if I ever have traction, various bits of drivetrain may end up on the road behind me. I can't wait to try it out, but I think it'll be a better 30-100 car than a 0-60.
