The clutch pedal has one master cylinder. The brake pedal runs two master cylinders, one with a bigger bore for the front brakes and one with a smaller bore for the rear brakes. This configuration is pretty common on race cars.

Okay this one is a little mod. Haven't used it at the track yet, but it is to disable the locking mechanism in my E brake. Hold the button and thread the pin "In" and you can pull and let go. Thread it "Out" and it works like it did before. It's on the side of the lever.

I made extended shifters similar to the FLP ones from OEM cores (or aftermarket steel ones). Made one for my car a long time ago and I've been making them for customers and friends pretty regularly. IMHO it's a great mod and I won't go without it in any of my own cars.






I also make these as well, less make and more modify... it's a replacement for the factory U-joint in a B/D linkage (works in other makes too), which is pretty popular with both guys who have old worn out OEM linkages and CRX/EF guys running a HASport linkage since they tend to get sloppy fast. It's a pretty simple thing but literally every single one I sell is followed by a thank you from the customer, I guess it's just something that you can enjoy every day.
