I was talking to Dave about this a couple days ago and found the thread. The car still has the same motor, turbo, and tune as it did 3 years ago and it's still killing it. It's NEVER seen under 30 psi.

I can't wait for some good weather! Goes to show you what a great shop is capable of. Thanks again guys!

 

It is quite amazing! I hope my luck with the new stroker for my car is as good as yours has been!

 

I think you need another try for that 9 sec pass on 18s!

 

As soon as I get it on the Hoosiers I will try the 18's again for sure. Only had one pass last year (more like a half pass)... However, the car felt stronger than ever with the new gearing and some moar powar! Just need to get this s h i t Exedy clutch out and cry while I cut yet ANOTHER check to most likely tilton...Unless someone has other ideas on clutches that you can NLS the stock trans like a dog box...

 

maybe the new QM race style clutch. or check out OS Giken. i dont know how they are for high rpm shifting yet as i have not driven my car but i here there pretty good. they make a twin, triple, and quad plate clutch. lol

 

can i ask what gearing you use? and final drive

 

^ good question

what's wrong with exedy? Which one do you have?

 

I believe this car has a 4.11 FD. It used o have the 3.73FD. Evolunchbox, correct me if I'm wrong. There's quite a few videos on HBF on this car. This thing freakin moves.

 

That is correct, it originally had 3.73's, now it's on 4.11's. Nick can NOT WOT shift the car with the Exedy in it.

 

Fixed

 

 

which exedy clutch do you have

 

ATS Triple?
If you have the Exedy Twin, Exedy Triple.

I remember seeing that car and the Silver one at Zen when you were still in GA. It was sick.

 

Oh! haha Yeah, I screwed that up Nick, I fixed my post!

 

Thanks!

The ATS triple carbon was the first clutch I had in the car back in 2004. Their mechanism for the hydraulic TOB was sub-par at best... Not even close to the engineering/effectiveness that Tilton put into theirs...Although, I'm still pissed at Tilton for spending close to 13K on their clutches and them still not giving a **** about me or willing to help me...with that said, NOTHING shifts like a brand new Tilton fresh out of the box! You can shift the stock trans like a dog box and keep your foot matted to the ground. Certainly a +1 when running liter bikes...I mean at the track

I'm currently back to the stock pull style clutch, exedy triple, and a STM TOB blocker thingy. Honestly, not my favorite set-up at all. The car will be going back to Buschur soon...most likely for the *wisper* Tilton.
