Here is my old pressure plate, a "new" press and some random undercarriage shots:














The exhaust is a 2.5" dual to 3.5" single with a side exit oval tip that fits flush with the rear tire.

I finished a ways down in 11 or 12th place. The car had more in it than the driver this weekend.

This was my best run from this weekends American AutoX....good enough for last place (1.7 seconds off the winner). The car is as good as ever and very easy to drive with the current shock and spring package. I feel like the car had more in it than I did, tightening up on the slalom cones and connecting the dots on the last turn around would have probably pulled me into the chase. I'll be driving the bird to Vegas for round one of this year Optima series. Wish me luck.

Good luck in Vegas! What are you doing for your gopro setup? I've always done in car and want to move out out of car seems to give a better view.

I just use the GoPro suction cup mount. I'm going to get an external mic in the near future. I like this view the best as it show where I am looking and what I am doing with the wheel.

I almost forgot to show off my power steering cooler, it mounts off of the hood latch, 18 ga steel.

Started with some cardboard templates and flat layouts:


All formed up:


Basic Shape:


Getting fancy:






Might as well add some dimples to improve the "air flow"








Also added a nice little cutout to run the lines:


Helper springs got added to the rear coilovers so I could go up my driveway at an angle:
