The hardest part will be getting the master cylinder mounted and the pedal assembly, the rest of it is more or less no more involved than doing a clutch swap. If it were me I'd go ahead and get the pedals and master done ahead of time so that helps to minimize downtime.

Probably not the first Curren convertible ever, but it'll be the first we know so that counts.

This weekend I'm going to attempt to replace all the rear bushings in my Celica with polyurethane. I'm hoping it goes well.

I feel like I have a better chance than some since I don't live where cars rust.
