Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

here is some more
pics of the other knuckle and the one that has been ground down to make the brembo brackets fit. Pic was before I did the final clean up on it and did the other knuckle.

Nice. I'm taking Friday off from work, so if you need a hand with anything, I could probably swing by during the day some time.

So you're gonna hack off half the bolt head of the caliper brackets to make room for the calipers?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

How are wooden brackets going to hold up? What if you get termites and your brakes fall off? Will you be using Thompson deck sealant?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

I have to thank my dad Ken for doing the coil pack bracket. he made it from a extra 90 dsm coil bracket and some angel iron I had at the house. it is now mounted on to of the A/C pump. I also drilled out the mount hole on a 91+ ignitor and put it were the oem intake bracket was. Dad also made an alum bracket to move the throttle cable so it would work and not bind up. We did a mini wire tuck also. I just have to get a longer hose for the PVC. We also had to redo the fmic piping with a 45 bend and cut the lower pipe shorter. On the smim we had to drill out the bolt holes a bit to get it to fit the bigger studs. But that was the only thing we had to do to it.
now to the pics
