I kinda miss that. It was an '83 GTV6 and even with the stock system the pedal had little travel and very good braking action. Of course the engine is fantastic which is another reason I miss that car. Alas, it doesn't have room for 5.
The previous 9000T I had had 315,000+ miles on it before I got rid of it. It had been relegated to parts car when I got this one, but when we moved 3 months ago I couldn't take it with me so I "gave" it to a local salvage yard. I would have gotten $31 for it if I took it to them, but took the $11 for them to pick it up. I kept most of the things I wanted from it and they ended up with a good engine block and two 2.0L heads as I kept the 2.3 I removed from it.
Now I just need to bleed the clutch. I tried to do this when I did the brakes, but couldn't get the bleed screw to break free.
