Default Wii's DC5 Last Build, Washington

I was going to wait until the completion of this project, but after I spoke with David, he asked if I can post my build thread on here. I would like to give special thanks to Raffi @ Full-Race, David @ Hybrid-Racing, close homies: Joe, Bill, Mel, Toto, Larry, Toon, Jeff, and to all the homies and the people who had put up with me and this build. which I have forgot to mentioned, you know who you are lol.

Purchased this car in 2002 for 2003 type S model. Had 1 mile on it when I signed the papers and drove it off the lot.

What the car has gone through until now

My custom brackets for the calipers getting made, hopefully I will be getting them soon...



Brake setup will be 332mm x 32mm rotors 2 piece, Mugen micro mesh brake lines are coming. Endless brake pads on order. I don't know what I should do as of deleting the ABS or relocate it. I know EncoreDC5 makes the kit for relocation, but would it be better off if i keep the ABS or delete the sucker....So brake experts, chime in if you have input please!

Took a couple more pics of how she is sitting right now, waiting and waiting....




Got a nice box today, these are only offered to race team and or someone is licensed and registered to a race team....I got really lucky to score this one. Can't wait to install them...

Im in love :happyg:




Titanium pistons inserts :noes::giggity:



They are huge
