Nice.

Couldn't you have rid yourself of the extra idler pulley/ adjuster?
Or is that the only point of tension for the belt?

Looking good :)
Where are they mounted?
And does this mean you have no in tank pump?

Up under the boot, sort of up where the toolkit bay is on the drivers side.

Nah, still have the Walbro ITP257 in-tank, this new one is an inline supplement pump.

Is that the boot lid that you painted? The paint job on it looks phenomenal.

But looks good none the less :)

The other boot with the VS wing on it is being resprayed as we speak :D

I dunno what to do with this one, was contemplating sticking a big ass GT wing on it & using it purely for track days when I actually need some down force :lol:
I've also tossed up some other options, like an Evo 8 wing, or maybe a Version R with carbon blade. I 'unno! I'm not so good at styling :lol:

All I know is I've really gotta polish up the rest of the car to match the new boot!
