Sunday Project
Since noone came this weekend, I decided get some projects done. It was a busy weekend. All kinds of stuff showed up. My father recieved a Diablo Tuner and a SLP Cat back system. I recieved a pretty set of pistons, a fuel tank for the racer and a package from Motorsports Warehouse. Saturday I spent the morning puring concrete around my parents new inground pool, followed by helping one of the guy's on NASIOC do an uppipe, down-pipe, and Clutch line on his WRX. Sunday I devoted to the SVX. Here are the results:

If it's one of those small caliper-paint kits, it will chip/rust off within a year..

Yep, I did the calipers on FrankenWedge about 4 years ago with red engine spray cans, and it still looks good (when it's clean )

It looks good! I bought actual "caliper paint" from DCH Motorsports and did mine in black to match the car. I also clear coated them.
