I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

s2k cmc and hopefully the spacer will be here tomorrow. i know the s2k cmc will be checked the tracking #.

probably end up test fitting this and finding out where to run lines. will also possibly pull the bmc and replace it with my gsr one i had laying here @ the house for a few years,

Bay looks good.
Mirrors, no. Not ever. Everything needs "WRC style" mirrors, if you know what I mean. Honda agrees, they installed them at the factory.

so most of my morning/afternoon has been dedicated to pulling and cleaning more parts of my bay.

i cleaned up the intergra brake master cylinder and booster today. need to pick up a wire brush for on my drill so i can clean the cylinder how i want it. the reservoir however didn't turn out how i wanted it at all. seems stained & has some scratches on it that really irks me.

i would like to run across a CTR cylinder & booster. it would match my s2k clutch master cylinder. dont know if i want to shell out the extra $ towards such a simple little thing that will more then likely be overlooked by everyone except myself.

the cyl on the left is a single drop to the cylinder. and the one on the right GSR is a double. not sure what the one on the left is from i dug around with no luck. not sure if its a 1" or not. it would match my cmc great! Image for the time being im going to run the GSR. once i figure out how i want to run my brake lines i will have that laid out and have to order up parts. but im least concerned about my brake setup at the moment because there is nothing wrong with it. i just want to tuck away the lines and thats the least of my worries now compared to the mess i have in tucking my wires to get the car actually runable again.

as for those vision mirrors, they are a hot items right now. so if anything the price i can pick them up at i could probably make bank later on if i do decide to part with them.

as far as i know you only need to run the CTR or ITR cylinder since the boosters are all the same.

i also had my eyes set on this. i cringe when i found out the company behind it but my eyes light up when i hear about the price and the quality.
Image Image Image Image yes thats right, OBX ITBS. who would of thought? they have been in production for quite some time and i heard some really good things about them. they are using OEM Toyota AE111 TB's and they actually make the adaptor plate in house. they have been R&D. i guess they are modeled/copied from the toda ITBs. http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2219288
