Brake, steering and clutch week

After a long wait, I was finally able to dedicate an entire week to my project. I made significant progress on the steering system, installing new tie rod ends and refurbishing the steering box. I also galvanized and painted the steering components for a clean, rust-free finish. To complete the braking system, I bent and screwed in new brake lines and finished the accelerator pedal with a new cable. I also replaced the clutch with a new set. The next steps involve an oil change, brake fluid refill, and engine tuning. I'm planning an assembly weekend with some friends to help out and hopefully take it for a spin!

Yokohama - Flat 4 tour

Eight years ago we visited Flat4 in Tokyo. Back then, their HQ was still in the city, along with a bodyshop and garage. That trip was a total game-changer for me, and I've been dying to go back ever since. Well, this year, I finally made it back to Japan, and I had to stop by Flat4 again. They've moved to Yokohama now, but it was totally worth it. I even did some shopping and left a little memory on their Instagram page.
