***UPDATE***
last update was nov. 18 2010, i've driven the car daily...drove it to houston on nov. 28 for a drift event, drove home, and have been driving and having fun with the car ever since. I'm from new orleans...
***important bleeding proceedure***
since the last update, all i did was bleed the system according to fsm, but before then, i had to unbolt the ksport and flip it right side up so that no air would be trapped in the master when bleeding.
before driving to houston, all i did was secure the lines with some radiator hosing so that they wouldnt rubb n cheff after some time.
also removed all of the oem ebrake parts.
lines, shoes, clips, springs, evvrything!
Can't wait to see the finished product.
