Come on out. I'l help pick you up off the floor. will be provided.

I appreciate that Ryan. I'd hope to arrange some sort of road trip in the next couple of years when are kids are a bit older. Pacific Coast Hwy, see SanFran, hit up Disneyland; all the while trying to squeeze in car stuff. Perhaps center the timing around a big Cali meet or track day of some sort. It's all in the works but a 3 year old and 16 month old is just a bit too young for such a trip currently.

That would be quite the road trip. I would just fly down for a weekend.

Agreed 100%, just come down for the weekend. Laguna Seca is a little over an hour away and you'd easily have enough time to check out the cars and visit the track.

Update

>> I just added a bunch of content to the original post including more history, pictures, modification summary, dyno tuning progress and a resurrection progress summary. Also I fixed a few typos. <<

Is the clearance on the 15x7 magnesium wheels so good that you really can run a 330x28mm rotor with a 4 piston caliper? The Alcon and Spoon monoblocks seem like a tight fit under 15x8 TE37's as it is. Really impressive car all around, I might need to find me a set of those wheels for autocross next year.

I'm not sure if these exact wheels will clear the 330x28mm rotor and/or with a 4 or 6 piston caliper, however, I can try to test fit when I get a chance to try out some of the old spec parts. The big advantage with these calipers is that they were specifically chosen, machined and designed to be attached without the need for an adapter bracket. Also the rotor hats were also machined in varying thickness to aid in clearance without the need for a wheel spacer. Below are some pictures and document of the different brake setups this car was able to run:
