therein lies my problem.

I can work on my motor all day, but i can't install my own lsd.

i also don't even have money for a clutch, let alone a flywheel, let alone an lsd it pretty much sucks, and yes, i burn the tires from 4k up in second gear on stock clutch and stock tires.

 

you'll get there one day... just be patient.

 

in the mean time, i'm going to be turning the boost down, no sence in putting extra strain on the motor and tranny when its not going to get me anywhere. All the serious car guys that i am around regularly know exactly what my car is capable of in its previous (good clutch) state, so i really have nothing i need to prove until i get some money and make some new purchases...

 

Exactly...

 

When do you expect you'll get your
car fixed?

 

You should start on the clutch/flywheel setup. Then do the LSD. But the question is: Are the clutch/flywheel and LSD in close proximity that you would want to do them at the same time? Or does it not matter?

 

yes, i want to do them all at the same time when it comes time. my car is not "broke" my clutch just won't handle the power available. i'll still be taking my car to the shootout at norwalk, i just won't be doing any pulls in it or running it. I don't want to do the clutch and flywheel now, and then do an LSD later, becuase then i'll either have to tear the tranny apart again or have someone else tear the tranny apart again, and i want to do it all at once. that and i think i would be amazed at the difference of having all 3 done at the same time.

 

Well that's always a good feeling.

 

Dude, this is a damn shame. It just starts to get warm. *sob*

 

yes it is, yes it is. Im gonna take it easy on the car, doesn't mean i can't have fun tho...

 

I babied the stock clutch for about a month when I was first Stage 2. Bought the clutch, went to buddy's house, 3 hard launches and it was fried, barely got it up driveway... Be very careful or you will end up on the side of the road stuck. Mine was barely slipping and I made no hard launches. All the slipping came at high RPM in 4th and 5th... You will fry stock clutch soon...

 

Clutch swap or LSD install both require the Trans to get pulled.

ROAD/RACE

 

yeah im gonna take it easy on stock clutch until i can get the money for a new clutch. thinking of doing lsd too, gonna have to see money situation, everyone ive talked to about doing clutch install said they can do lsd for free if i pay for clutch. I might do the clutch myself if i just get that, if not i'll prolly take the clutch and limited slip to slick motorsports here in cleveland. my evo buddy got an ACT put in there and he loves it.

 

Manly power requires an manly clutch. Get the flywheel too. You will not regret it.

ROAD/RACE

 

Or an automatic.
