AMS clutch kit = 400 bucks .... me = jobless right now... so no.. i got a used OEM one off ebay... 40 bucks... will upgrade later (soon as i start the new job next month).... and besides this OEM one lasted 3 years on the stage 2 ACT 6 puck that i have in......
Good point Kracka. There are already lost of opportunities to hang out with other car people.
There used to be a weekly RiceKiller meet. It was lots if fun but got way out of hand really fast. Tons of people would show up with all different types of vehicles. But, then it turned rice (go figure). Then the owner of the shopping center meeting place came one night. She was so amazed by the number of cars that she shut it down.
It took a ton of time and effort to organize RiceKiller. Just look at how much work/people it takes to run Cars & Coffee. But if you want to spend the time and effort to organize a new weekly event, go for it.

I have every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off so doing some pavement beating isn't a problem. Picking the right location in this is key.
I actually miss Atlanta's Thursday Nights at The Varsity. 100's of cars there without an issue ever. Sharif @ Forged and I kicked a bit there

At least throw the AMS ring on your replacement, that's my plan when I upgrade clutches. Any idea which year the used one you bought it from? Mitsu has beefed up the plastic CMC since 2008.
