Its call magic Izzo. You wave your hands over it and it happens.

But really its dead simple. You just have to understand how electricity works and bam.

I Just wired it. Yeah. Was the first time I wired up a low oil pressure shutoff into the fuel pump curcuit. It was all easy peasy. The hardest part was explaining how the relay worked to my bro lololol
So easy, that it would only complicate things to make a diagram on this scale.

Making rainbows in the other race car.

I can never bring myself to cut the tach wires.... so bunches extra hidden in the dash
Image
I know it looks like alot of green, all the fuel pump related wires are all green and the relay has 4 conections. , cause the lights are grean. And so the theme continues thru out.

With very little modding at all I got my 13s to fit over the zx/wilwood brakes.
It was so close that I got some 2mm spacers, but wont need them after all.
Image
Gotta throw the rotors on the brake lathe tomarow. They where brand new but got some surface rust from sitting in my trunk all winter.
Clears the strut tube by a mile and then some.
Image
Got almost an inch to the berral, the face was what was close.
Most zero ofset wheels I tried just scrubbed the face of the caliper. 14s and 15s too. Wouldnt have taken much spacer, but if you can run without them thats best.

Actually it gets worse with the Tie rod. The Tie rod with RCAs wont go inside a 15" wheel. Not sure without.

This is with 1" rca spacers (actualy 1.25 but I bought them as 1 ")
tie rod clears, but it is close. It is actualy right even with the wheel bead. I need to mount it all up without the spring intalled and go thru the full range of motion to check all clearences. I realy kinda wanna bend my steering knuckles anyways. I know I have the rcas, so I bolted em up.... but maybe ill do the knuckles also/instead.

So. Cut the shit out of my strut towers, stitch welded one side but it started getting windy and I couldnt block it. Going to have to grind some uglies back out.
Then I lowered the perches on these truts to match the new ones, just to see how low it would be.
It should actualy sit 2.25 inches lower than this, 5.75 right now.
