Im spraying my rims this weekend.........Justin I have the clear and caliper paint ready....Thanks for your advise.

Not to mention the work that was done under the hood to make it run 100% better. The previous owner had that car a mess....it was amazing to see how bad someone can mod a car.

but it now has the correct mods and on the right path that it deserves

Maybe the reason people are saying it looks like a different car is becasue the last time everyone saw Brians car it did not have the rims, lip, or air ducts.

I liked my twin. I hope my new triple is the same way.. The twin was stock feeling, a little heave but slipped the same way and had nice grip characteristics..


I recommend the twin for anyone over 350 and below 600

I plan on going twin on my stock evo - well when I need a clutch but my stocker has 35k miles on it and still grabs the same as the day I got it.

They seem to have stock like pedal pressure, unlike bigger single disc clutches. Also they are made to slip and are a lot easier on the drive-train when driven correctly. Plus they will last 2x as long as a single disc will.

If you have the money I would go twin and not look back....
