yeah been eye'n up the black hasport mounts for awhile, more then likely go with those in the future. more worried about getting the wiring, clutch and fuel lines done so i can fire the car back up.

No. You dont have to have a pressure on one side and the return on the opposite. The feed/return can be on the same side next to each other. Most accords/ preludes have the fuel setups this way. Plus running it on the same side makes it look cleaner and less noticable.

AW SNAP, then i ran across some of the vision mirrors i have been on the hunt for a year+ , discontinued.

these will be making an appearance on my car as well. pretty stoked on them.

so most of my morning/afternoon has been dedicated to pulling and cleaning more parts of my bay.

i cleaned up the intergra brake master cylinder and booster today. need to pick up a wire brush for on my drill so i can clean the cylinder how i want it. the reservoir however didn't turn out how i wanted it at all. seems stained & has some scratches on it that really irks me.

i would like to run across a CTR cylinder & booster. it would match my s2k clutch master cylinder. dont know if i want to shell out the extra $ towards such a simple little thing that will more then likely be overlooked by everyone except myself.

the cyl on the left is a single drop to the cylinder. and the one on the right GSR is a double. not sure what the one on the left is from i dug around with no luck. not sure if its a 1" or not. it would match my cmc great!

for the time being im going to run the GSR. once i figure out how i want to run my brake lines i will have that laid out and have to order up parts. but im least concerned about my brake setup at the moment because there is nothing wrong with it. i just want to tuck away the lines and thats the least of my worries now compared to the mess i have in tucking my wires to get the car actually runable again.

as for those vision mirrors, they are a hot items right now. so if anything the price i can pick them up at i could probably make bank later on if i do decide to part with them.
