    oil in the air intake

    i removed my airbox in order to replace the VSS and found a not-inconsequential amount of oil pooled in the bottom of the bellows between the airbox and throttle body. presumably this is blow by from the crankcase, i wiped the majority of it out but should i be concerned?

    na2 front brakes on a na1 car

    are there any serious drawbacks to installing front na2 calipers and rotors on a na1 car, leaving the rears stock? would the master cylinder be terribly unhappy or the f/r bias be totally messed up?

    i'm going to order a set of enkei rpf1 for track use, my only question is which offset to specify. front 17x8 comes in both 35mm and 45mm offset, the 35mm should have no problem clearing my brakes but might rub the fender, the 45 is better for tire clearance but might not clear the caliper...
