My new PWB rebuilt 911S aluminum calipers are on the car and I ditched the backing plates. Pagid pads.

It really seems a bit quicker after putting my car on a diet with the lost unsprung weight.

I fixed the wipers. The nut on the likage/motor had slackened.

Finally - did something 914 related.

Boxed-up, labeled and stored some more parts that recently arrived, so I know where they are when the time comes to use them.

Also, finalized arrangements to have a new 2.0L banana muffler shipped here next week ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)
