Added some Stainless-Steel 4500PSI Brake lines from Stoptech, as well as a fresh brake bleed with ATE Fluid, my pedal feel is beyond perfect. Ready for Autocross as soon as it stops snowing.

Added a cool tow vehicle Mod last week...
2005 Nissan Titan SE 4x4. Trailer next.
The STi will be getting repainted in the coming weeks after extreme sand damage. Gotta love living in the desert.
