Got some new lines to compliment my spiffy new disc brake upgrade, enjoy!




Hope to get back out there and actually put some of these parts on rather than just collect them in my shop!!

dude, your project never ceases to amaze me

[Christ]

I'm trying to find a cheap hydraulic fitting crimp tool, so I can make my own brake lines... primarily because I have about 300' of diff sizes of braided stainless and brass thread... used to work for a company that used/made the stuff.

I planned on making a bunch of lines... brake, fuel, radiator, etc... just covering them up.. I don't like shiny stuff though.. so it's just here... laying around now.

I'll still do the brake lines and paint them though... they actually serve a function when they're stainless braided.. they're ALOT stronger, and will probably never need replaced again.

Where did you get JUST the front brake lines? I might pick up a set. Thanks!

Well, I only took a picture of two, but I got all four. (If you look close enough though the two I photographed is one front and one rear)

NICE!

got my roll cage this weekend... but like 30' of rain is stopping me from doing any work or even snagging pics of my new toy. So I sit and wait and dream of finishing this baby off!! In the mean-time I have been looking around for some new seats for my project seeing as my EP-3 seats already put me and my 6' 3" tall a$$ about 1/4 inch from the roof of the car, and now I have a cage...

I have found these reasonable priced seats from Corbeau that appear to be something I'm interested in... and the brand alone should provide plenty of "bawler status" points...



but I'm still open and looking actually for suggestions. I even made a thread in the General posts section. What seats are you guys using? I'm looking for aftermarket brands/ maybe reclinable but fixed back would be good if they are at a bit of a lean as these are. Anyway, help me out! lol

What do you want for your pre-modded EP3 seats? I want 'em

What the heck would shipping be for something that big/heavy though...

Recaro supplies seats for Honda, so maybe they'd be a better choice? Think: ITR/CTR models.

Password JDM has these WHEN their in stock and they are like over $1500 a pair. If I had that kind of change, my car would already be back on the road.

the EP-3's are gonna stay with me for now. They were $FREE.99 and would probably go back in the car for road trips etc... They were such a PITA to put in anyway; I'd feel cheated by selling them now.

STILL LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS!!

I wasnt suggesting that you get real ITR seats, I was suggesting that if you're going to get OPP (1 piece plastic) seats, then you should at least get something that was used in Hondas... as opposed to Corbeau, normally used in those German faults of engineering currently called VW. (They're nothing like they were back in the day.)

Got some new toys for myself for christmas today. A whole assortment of Russell fuel lines and fittings, a good Edlebrock filter, a B&M fuel pressure gauge, Aeromotive fuel rail (on order), and the greatest part is the Holly fuel pressure regulator.




And then my HID's came in today in the 6000K variety! muah ha ha ha!!!!
