Ok, player, if I don't bust your balls who will?

Your setup actually sounds great. I'd ditch the EDFC, cuz like lagos said, you dont adjust it that much and it's just more money.

As for the brakes, sure big brake kits look nice, but brakes for stopping, not looks. I think you'd be satified with a nice rotor/pad combo. SS lines aren't any where NEAR worth the time and effort in installing em. I'd recommanded DOT 4 fuild as well, but I'm sure you already know that.

New bushings will statisfy you, altho once again, a real big pain to install.

And wheres the LSD?


--------------------
NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
92 Civic hatch B16 - Sold
10th anniv RX-7 - RIP
The Slow Celica - Sold...and then crushed crushed due to street racing.
