To help poor ol Track,
This is the adjustable bias valve, it adjust bias to the rear brakes only.
Helps set up at different tracks.
Due to the car being road registered it not allowed to be in the cabin so as not being able to be adjusted by the driver, and with my co-driver that's probably a good thing ( he likes to adjust things )

The big red thing around the top shock mount bolts is a master cylinder brace, stops the firewall flexing on those OMG stops.

Only thing the $20 ebay shock brace bars are good for, MC braces.

Default Awesome stopping power here

Do I dare say it?

I have converted my normal 1.8 brakes to 1.6 rear brakes on all four corners. Before you drop your jaw in disbelief, I have set my car up for drag racing, and am trying to reduce any rotating mass in anyway possible on the cheap.
