Toasty - How does your flywheel look and what replacement clutch are you installing?

i guess i could edit them to be smaller but you cant really see the detail of the damage.... anyone that has 56k still ehh thats kinda sad.... Anyway the flywheel wasnt bad enough it needed to be replaced i got it resurfaced and im putting in a RRE no name clutch.. The clutch wouldnt be this bad except i had to with no option drive it for about 115 miles with it slipping the entire time.......

I figured something had taken some unusual wear - the presure plate didn't appear to have any noticeable grooving on it, but one of the clutch disk rivets had clearly been in contact with a friction surface.

Have you made a lot of drag strip passes on it?

maybe all of 5 but the clutch was slipping from a third gear roll on the third day i owned it. I got the car with 120 miles and i believe it was throughly abused for them. FYI i did notify the dealer on the 3rd day of ownership of this problem they offered to fix it but it was gonna end up costing me...... i got pissed off said **** you to the service manager and didnt go back. Im currently getting it done at a different dealership all together...... pretty much all the heat damage there resulted from the long drive i had to do with it slipping......
