JaSSon Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 In. Assembeled. Adjusted. FINISHED. I just got back from a very short test drive, and It's not what I expected at all. I was expecting a clutch with a very tough pedal feel and instant grip. So far, it has impeccable manners. Smooth engaging and dis-engaging and an extremely light pedal. The pedal is now about half as stiff as it was with the FRPP clutch. I just hope it forgets its manners at Norwalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loosened one of the headers hoping to cheat the tranny out. Eventually it worked in the getting it out part (ok wedging it out). I want a ride Jason when you get that clutch 'properly' broke in with the Nawwz of course I think I should take my car off my profile and take bets smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1647545494 Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I bet the whole time you were saying... Damn I shoulda listened to Fowler and Dave when they were doing this the first time and put a better clutch in it and I wouldn't be fighting with this right now... btw what brand did you get? I hope you avoided centerforce and went with a spec... if you did get a centerforce clutch wait about a month the throwout bearing will go bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
