Old full face clutch is back in because I don't have enough HP to warrant the harsh button engagement. Noise is gone and I think it was a case of imaginitis. A few trips to 6000rpm appears to have loosened up the chain on this engine now - this may be what was causing the noise.

The increased pressure plate weight has now caused the clutch master to leak internally. That is this weekends job.

A work in progress. Getting fitment right before I weld it up fully.

Engine moved rearwards ~40mm. Made a noticeable difference to handling on a previous car I did.

Useless trivia: I never knew what year this car was until now. It must be an '89 (or maybe '90)

Nice work, Anthony.

Check the seat belt tags (bottom of the belt) as they should have the year and month of manfacture there (they do on the JDM's)

Front seat belts have been replaced at some stage. Did check the rear belts, but don't recall the date.
