Just to clear this up...had to pull the trans apart to do the pins. It obviously had to come out to do the clutch.

1) The chatter is evident but not unbearable by any means.

3) Got the pill removed, so engagement is really low. I stalled thrice trying to pull out from GV's lot. But I was fine by the second or third light I stopped at.
4) Chris was kind enough to take pictures of everything when it was opened up, on my request.
5) he also gave me back all the stock parts for pictures sake. will be posting up something soon on the X forums for comparison sake.
6) He also said there were no signs of wear and tear apart from the normal, he said even my diff pins looked good given there were almost 27K miles on it. He's seen worse apparently for so many miles.
7) He aslo suggested strongly suggested against any dyno pulls before piling 200 miles or so. I'm just gonna take his word for it.

Will be posting a long term review as well eventually.
Glad everything worked out for you Sri! The twin disc definitely takes a little getting used to but it's definitely not bad. Enjoy the new setup!

The ufc card, to me atleast, just doesn't justify it's price tag. I'll def be avoiding facebook and sport sites until I finish downloading it tomorrow. Btw, I can't believe they're ppv'ing wec fights now. Faber v Aldo is going to be epic.

agreed. thats why I don't want to pay the full price, especially when I know it will be free on spike in 2 weeks. gotta admit though, its going to be a good fight(s). where are you D/L'ing it from?

The Pub Fo.x and H.ound in K.ing of P.russia always plays the UFC fights, cover is only $5 I believe. Not a bad spot but if you come late you will be standing. Go early and you can snag a seat or better yet get a table have a late dinner and hang out boozing 'til it starts.

Just got in from watching it at my buddies house who gets them 99% of them time. I follow it (mma) frequently so i was very happy with the main events outcome but the rest of the card sucked. Glad i didn't pay for it.

I'm a moron when it comes to this stuff. I went to isohunt and found some stuff for UFC 113, but how do I D/L and open/run a torrent file? I downloaded something on that site that said it was UFC 113, but it was like a free virus scan software that wanted me to pay/register...

If no one I know orders the fights I watch them here www.xmeforums.com they are live and it cost 3.50 much better then 55.00. It is in HQ, it doesnt get much better then that online.

Insane amount of talent out in WC last night. Curse this damn thing on my finger! I imagine the yunk was a similar seen?

The b-day girl did about 6 shots in the hr I was there, then went outside for a cig and the bouncers wouldn't let her back in, apparently they frown on staggering.

Thats how you get a virus if your running Windows.

You might want to run a scan on your machine after that.

Torrentreactor DOT net might have it.

O look, a low mileage 2006 EVO MR on ebay. Sweet. Probably hasn't had a thing done to it with only 2,000 miles.
