After a lot of misfortune, I finally got the Akebono calipers, Z1 2 piece rotors, and stainless lines installed. Quick tip - if you decide to get refurbished calipers, make sure the bleeder valves seal and work properly before fully committing. I ended up leaking my master cylinder dry and it took A LOT of bleeding (lines, MC, etc) to get the air out. Anyway, here's how the car is sitting currently:







In the past couple months, I decided that I won't be keeping this car for very long. The new Supra is just too tempting, and I won't be selling the Evo to make room, so this will have to go. I just haven't decided if I should buy one now, or wait to see if there's a final edition at some point. So, with that in mind, I'll be leaving the engine stock on this car and hopefully getting a couple track days in before selling.

Next up is suspension. Looking at Fortune Auto coils with SPL front upper control arms to get me started.
