Man that inlet manifold is going to look sexy!! After all that hard work I would have it coated, will last longer and look real nice too.

Just my 2 cents :wink:

Allright! Brakes are put together!! I am pumped! As you can probably tell by the exclamation marks!!!

First off i pushed the seals right and that didn't work so i bought some freshies and just kept the at the edges of the hub. And the Rotors wpin freely. Hope they keep the dust and dirt out. Just have to give them a quick touch up with some more pain here and there, tighten up the main CV castellated nut and its all done. One quick question, one of the brake pads was a little tight fitting in on one side. Is this a major problem or when i start driving will it just wear that side a bit for a while?

It shouldn't be a problem, & won't really even wear that side.
After a few uses the pad will clear the disc just fine.
