nah, it wasnt that close. there would have been plenty of shoulder room if needed. but im thinking a vacuum reservoir is in need, correctly setting the iac/idle to get more vacuum, and maybe some bigger (1le) calipers. now if only i could find out if 4th gen 2 piston calipers would work. and definatly an adjustable prop valve. there is almost no rear braking

may want to look into if there is an upgrade you can do to the master cylinder too, i think the double pistions use a larger one.

haha, yea right. i need to redo body work on my dd (rubberizing the lower portion, damn salt), it needs some suspension work, and the field car/snow plow needs work too. gsxr needs some minor stuff as well, and the list is still growing
