well, I've been having these rotors for a LONG time, I tried to sell them a while back, but no luck, so I'm putting them to good use, I got new loaded calipers and slapped everything on this past weekend. Along with the new 20V axle....bled the brakes for the first time...drove for the first time TONIGHT!!!! This Saturday, exhaust will be installed...no question enjoi ;D

Nice! Do u have the rear disc conversion too or just the front? How's the stopping power? Can you feel the difference?

no rear conversion........yet.......haha
rakes need to be bled more. Keep in mind I did new rear brake shoes, hardware kit and wheel cylinders, and new front calipers plus all my brake hoses were removed cause I was planning to change them at one point, plus my car has ABS, so when me and my friend bled them, we thought we were done, but then went and drove it for the first time and the brakes were still mushy....so not sure how good it will be, but I'm sure it will stop like a new Corolla in 97 lol

Go back to the shop and have that muffler redone. the opening should be tight with the lines of the bumper. yours is hanging and out of alignment. and does the new pipe follow the original lines of the heat shield closely? other than that you car is looking good....and we need videos

2.5 is the limit for 20v, its great and perfect, other motors that are lower than 1.6 should never pass 2.25, it's all sound but yess the 2.5, and if you want a sick sounding 20v, do what sonic did and add the red cherry bomb to make it sound like a rotary
