honestly i'm not sure the size, it came as a kit... i can ask chase when i talk to him probably tomorrow.. here is what the back looks like



all except the piece on the end (from the oem one) is what came with it

i think the bracket is about 3/4 in thick with 7 machined holes it probably woulnt be that hard to make one

wel i havent done any wiring yet... but i started to put things back on to the car like the fuel filter the subframe the traction bar manual steering rack.. stuff like that here is some pics





the manual rack was kinda tuff if you didnt have a doner car you would of had to buy a bushing for the rack here i had stuff two bushings into where the one was because if you dont it will have play and you need its to be stiff

and then i was about to put the master cylinder and booster back in and then i was like... no booster!! so thats what i did i modified my master cylinder and did a brake booster delete. im not doing the wilwood one anymore!

What's the difference between the wilwood one and the stock one ? From what I have read on some forums it works great but we will see when I get it on the road

wow my man you like to stay busy, i cant believe you got that all set up that fast! wish i had your motivation.. i dont think the brake feel will be bad just take its slow at first.. its probably like power steering.. hard at first... then you get used to it.. car looks good man

yeah being laid off helps...but im not getting all the things i want to buy because of it like the self made brake booster delete i would totally buy the chase bays one and all those other things if i could but im running low on funds at the moment....but im sure i will get those things later down the road

important thing imo is that you just dont give up.. its expensive to build a car.. have fun and make realistic goals.. thats my problem i have all these parts but no motivation to put things together... and then hardly any free time when i want to get stuff done.. and fyi if you wanna order chase bays you have plenty of time he's mad slow with his orders lol

yeah i will get some up for you.. there is a lot involved (cuttimh/hacking)i got them for free from a friend so i didnt care if i screwed them up or not...luckily i didnt... there is also a huge write up on g2ic.com that tells you how to do this.. ithink it was on a four door integra but its the same as a coupe did mine a little different then what he did but i feel that mine works just as well if not better then the other way
