The MISSING NUT for the big ball joint in the bottom of the super strut is an M16x1.5 16 mm with 1.5mm pitch. Just fyi. Also found out 5sfe brake rotors are perfectly centered in the caliber.... but surprisingly, they are a bit BIG??? I wouldn't have believed it myself, but the rotors are a touch big. Evidence below.   From underneath:  From the top:  The rotor spins, but man is it ever close. Prolly have them turned down 2-5 mm. I just worry about the pad springs rubbing... We'll see though also why don't you try and fit stock gt single piston calipers. they should fit just fine. pics would be cool!?

Brakes are fine! Mr2 turbo front pads are perfect. Those are gt rotors. As soon as everything got bolted up, the dimensions worked out . The gt calipers are a no go! Impossible without mods. They'll bolt to the bracket, yes , but how far off the bracket they go is the problem. The gt bracket won't bolt to superstrut but has the right "offset". Without mods to something, no gt caliper.

I now have brake pedal..... enough to drive it anyway.
Made some calls to a body shop because I'm tired of working on it. Don't really feel like learning body work on this thing either. In other news, the TRD short shifter feels great. I recommend it to anyone -------------------- |

It's been a long row to hoe. I hope I've shed some light on what it takes to actually do it. I know I haven't done the exciting part of the engine building etc etc. But I promise. That will come. To me there was no sense in building the motor without being able to at least drive the car. -------------------- |
