Did the clutch slave cylinder tonight and it's the best clutch mod yet and I've done them all!

Chase Bays stainless steel clutch line installed tonight. Not noticing much if any difference.

Be sure to watch your alternator cable for kinking and wear. The lack of cable relief is why I never changed out my di computer bracket. I'm sure it's fine, I'm just an overly paranoid bastard.

Removed the Perrin ebrake button and replaced it with a $12 red eBay Chinese button that I like the feel of better than the Perrin.

Couldn't pass up the sale at RallySportDirect on all DeatschWerks products. Got myself 700cc injectors and a fuel pump. I see flex fuel on the horizon mixed with a tune from Vit.

Louvered my hood on Saturday. I still need to get it painted however as the louvered areas the paint flaked off. The paint seems fairly brittle.

Here you go. Added it to the end of the first post too.

Ordered the TRD momo steering wheel (360mm diameter) today. It's the same steering wheel that comes in the FR-S 1.0 yellow car. I test drove one just to make sure I liked the steering wheel and I loved it so bought it. I'll post some pictures once it comes and I install it.

Added to fist post with a picture:
Gates K061015RB belt added to replace K061010. The K061015 was a little too loose for my liking with the 70mm pulley. The K061010 barely fits. The K061010HD was too tight and didn't fit. The K061015RB seems to be a perfect fit and should last longer and handle the stress of track days a little better.

RCE Tarmac 2 coilovers ordered today. Should be here in the next few business days. Big boy pants are going on! Now I just need big boy breaks in front (AP Sprint).

Careful with DeatschWerks. I recently bought the DW65C Fuel Pump and it went out on me within 4 days. On the trip to Florida to get tuned it over heated and seized up leaving me with a massive tow bill. Then once on the dyno it was making me run lean on the high end of each gear.

Thanks for the info. Good thing I returned it and decided to do the flexfuel at a later date or maybe never. I'm guessing if I go with the larger Sprintex 335 supercharger, even if I run 92oct, that I'll need to get the fuel pump and injectors even without flexfuel.
