No idea. Chinese thing we have at work. One of the mirrors just burnt out so were only cutting cardboard for now. Once that gets fixed I'll cut it in acrylic.

Got my injectors in the mail yesterday and installed them today. They weren't necessary, but look pretty sweet and should handle anything this motor and the next can throw at them.

Bracket for downpipe brace started. I'll weld a bit of angle iron to come out back towards the back of the car. Then I'll bolt the band clamp onto that.

Also added a female USB-B onto my switch panel.
Is there any interest in these? I can cut them for super cheap and throw them in an envelope. They work with the crutchfield stereo install kit.

I took a ton of pictures while building this. I'm pretty happy/proud of it. Some of my better fitting work, all the angles lined up well and no big gaps.
I'm just going to dump them all here. Ask questions/give critique as you will.
Update to the list:
To-Do:
0. FIND OIL LEAK/BURN (So far so good.)
1. Inconel studs (RX-7 ordered, still need resbond but I think I am going to run without resbond for now because its a biatch to find)
2. Exhaust bracing. (Ordered a 3 inch exhaust clamp)
3. Locking downpipe bolts (Arrived)
4. Seats + Harness
4. Back braces (DIY)
5.Install new springs (550 Front, 350 rear)
6. Oil+water temp guages. (Going with a VEI systems gauge) Ordered
7. Helmet (Going to continue to run my open face helmet and wait for sa-2015)
8. Hardtop (Got one)
9. Put beads on intercooler pipes (Probably DIY: DIY $5 charge pipe bead roller - D-series.org, unless someone local knows somewhere to get it done cheap)
10. Find coolant leak. (risky to put this here but so far I haven't lost any coolant)
11. Find diff leak.
12. Heat Shielding. (master cylinder, brake lines)
13. Tune.
14. Manifold relief cuts
15. Setup oil cooler
∞. Break stuff[/QUOTE]

Nope. Going to probably order a different one at some point. There are a couple other small changes I can do the make it easier to install.

I'm a little worried. There is some fluid build up around the clutch fork area. Need to clean it off and see what kind of fluid it is.
