Dope, working magic with the routing of those brake lines!

Q: Which tool is better, the 37 or the 45? I hear vaguely of both but don't know much about that. Hows that summit tool compare to others? I forget who makes the really good one, IIRC Rigid makes the best one I think but I bet its mad $

Its not about one being better then the other. Its what is required for AN fittings, AN fittings require a 37* flare where as OEM brake lines and fuel lines are 45*

The summit one has been used for a few years on a lot of different cars and none leak what so ever. The Rigid one is like $100+ which is not bad at all.

Yeah I hear that about the school thing. I am going to have to leave right after the meet to get home Sunday night.

I was talking to him about trading my white ones for his silver ones and he decided he wanted to keep them. Silver on silver just looks too good !
I'll just have to redo my next set of wheels in silver

Yeah i thought about using a line like that but was hesitant because i didnt want to buy it and it not be long enough for how i wanted it to be ran. I am not trying to just stuff everything in the fenders like others do.

Sorry for the lame update school started up again last week so things are a little slow.


The hardware on the side mounts and the seat rails were pretty rusty and mix matched so I went to home depot and got some new ones.
OLD and NEW






The fabric where the harness goes through was hanging down so I decided to take care of it since it bothered me!



Just need to take off these pieces here to get underneath. Then just stretch the fabric and put it back on the glued area.




The seat brackets are a bit beat up and slight rusty so decided to sand blast and powder coat them


Sent a few other things to get s

Quick teaser of what I have been working on a bit on the side. Have started to create a full write up on it. Once I am done I will post it for other to view!

IA Baltimore was fun! Saw few old friends havent seen in a while!
Meet motivated me to want to get some things dont on my car.

Decided to switch up my wing on the hatch. My original plan was to get a OEM CTR wing because i was tired of the 3rd brake light on it. Well my plan changed when I got a message from JDMBrad and he said he was selling his mugen wing for a good deal and it was already painted VSM!
So decided to pick it up as a birthday gift for myself last month! My first Mugen part !




Condition is great no scratches or flaws in it really. It has the wiring for the 3rd brake light on the mugen wing so that pretty cool .


The badge has some extra glue on it im guessing from when it was put back on after paint will prob clean it up the best I can without doing any damage.

Nice pickup! It will set off the car IMO. I bet it fits great too.

I would love to but when i took of the old wing it was a pain in the *** bc of the way the car is sitting right now. I some how managed to scratch my trunk when taking the old wing off bc of the wall behind it.
