I've had a hydroboost in mine for so long, everytime I see the old master cylinder in there it makes me pause and go "whaaaa?"

Are you going to repaint or just powerwash?

Looks extremely clean. Move your coil to behind the headlights.. Would look great.

That engine looks like it's leaned very far to the driver side.

Shaved bay is what I'm going for. Here's a more updated pic but not current. I got bondo and fiberglass in there now.


And also taking the opportunity to foam the chassis...

[warioware]

i just spoke with my mechanic and he did use m20 motor mount arms he told me that the m3 motor mount arms were too long
