it was a downshift from about 55mph from 5th into 4th

mine and my girls sh** is better looking than you

Man that blows! I see Exedy Twin Carbon in your future?

That's why god invented scatter shields.

tre team rip is another tranmission to look at! i was going to comment on the spelling also but in a crappy situation like this- its uncalled for!

Damn, you beat me to it....

What are the odds that the installer did something incorrectly?...232 miles with a loose bolt here and there on the flywheel...I can see this happening.

Hopefully the installer doesn't work on cars the way that you spell.

well.............sorry for your troubles, but go with a better brand like Exedy or RPS maybe. I have had my exedy twin-ceramic-metallic clutch for almost 20k miles now with zero problems. I have driven it hard on the street and even harder on the drag strip. I have probably launched the car close to 50 times now with zero problems yet. My clutch was $1300, but well worth it. They retail for around $1600, but you can find a good deal here on evom. Anyhow RPS is supposed to be good too, but I haven't expierenced their stuff at all. Good luck tho.

WOW thats Bad news right there man! Glad it didnt come flying though the cabin!

it wasnt a bolt you can see where the preasure plate just broke where the springs should be

same thing happened to my buddies sr20det swaped 240sx. He had a spec stage 3. there are pics of it on freshalloy.com I think. He tried to fight it with spec and had no luck.

clutch + springs = your friend

p.s is that a sharks tooth ?

I've been waiting for something like this with a Spec Evo clutch. I'm from the f-body world before the Evo and exploding Spec clutches is something that has happened repeatedly in that application. My friend bought one anyway (I helped him install it) and within a few thousand miles it grenaded, taking the bellhousing and pieces of the tranny with it. He was very lucky not to be hurt. There were holes in the floorpan and the top of the accelerator pedal was sheered off (but not his toes luckily).

Unsprung clutch + Evo AWD is asking for driveline failure.
