Dont think I ever posted pictures of my brake setup ....the front calipers needed rebuilding when I purchased the car so I decided to upgrade to the FC3S setup, Steel lines front and back and rebuilt the rears with project mu pads..had to grind some of the fins off the top of the calipers to fit the rims im currently using....dont think it applies to all 15 inch rims but the barrel design of mines required it

Sold my Header and bit the bullet for one of the very expensive but top notch Tri-Y Hytech headers from John at Hytech......never knew this but John worked for Quick Silver Race engines long time ago....he and Sandy are actually really close!!! Still had to pay full price haha but this design is based off the Formula Atlantic design just re-bent to fit the AE86 platform...Thanks to Billy Andrea for being the first person to get one made opening the door for others....John has a Jig setup so you dont have to take your car there for a custom build

Customers custom made car at the shop....pretty cool setup ....Erik one of the engine builders and tuner who been working there for 18 plus year said his dad will be driving the car is some upcoming SCCA competition for the customer to try and spark interest in others possibly purchasing one 

Setting up the s2000 gauge cluster.....what a pain in the ASS! all the wiring is done...I think well at least what features apply to the AE86....took the JSP panel and put some 3m textured carbon fiber vinyl on it...cut out 2 holes for my EGT gauge and my Oil Pressure...should look good when im done. Bought a custom carbon fiber HVAC delete from Carbon Fiber Collections in Hawaii to fit all my Omori gauges...looked good but fitment kind of sucks so Im debating if im going to use it now....cant fit the stereo surround under it in properly...so might ditch it if i can trim it properly! 

blast for the past

Finished my rear end up....added my revolver traction brackets, and installed the N2 panhard support bracket which bolts to the frame and supports the side to side pressure put on the factory panhard mount....these things can crack and are a pain to reweld...In the future I will install a Watts link setup similar to the one pictured but SS Works makes one that actually bolts on instead of welding the mount to the center of the diff housing. 

after 10 years of storage....original OEM stickers have a home
