Looks good. I personally didn't like the PBR ultimates, though.
They made way more dust than any other pad i've used, and squealed all the time up front.
I went back to metal masters.

you're stupid..

do you have any idea how much faster your car is with the JDM plate..?!?

it's twice as aero dynamic as our plates, all you did was create a big ass area for turbulence!!

jk..

great job man, keep it up..!

The trans is perfect! I have mt-90 in it now and it's working fine...tubbie sold me this trans for $200 shipped and it works great I can't complain! I may go r154 but I don't know...I'm thinking of buying another supra so everything is in the air.

i had to tell my machinist to not touch my head....he did a real bad job on my block deck...he decked my block and left it with a 120ra which looks like he cut it with a damn chainsaw...sooo after some major lapping i got it mostly done but im gonna lap it some more.

oh and the block i was lapping the block with is a percision ground granite slab used for testing parts...this block is .0002' out of flat so my work cant use it....its now mine lol.
