Since I've been messing with just about every part of the car, I figured I couldn't spare the brakes. :o
Did a full rebuild on the front and rear calipers. New seals etc etc. ($hit job btw!!)
:x
Then had them sandblasted and decided it's time for some new paint too. 8)

While I was at it I figured I better get rid of the ABS sensors as well. The rear ABS sensors have a little arm that interferes with a normal 2.5" exhaust, and I need space if I'm gonna squeeze a 3" in there... :twisted:

Picked up some "used" non-abs lines from the breaker yard:
