Pete, I do like to old 70s and early 80s Mercedes 300D. I love the way those cars look.
I used to drive a 1977 300D, non-turbo. Slow as hell but still managed to get it up to 110mph. I was gonna mention those cars in my post but didn't... Those things run forever!

Any of you guys watch Chasing Classic Cars? Wayne just bought a 78 with something like 20k original miles the other week. Car was absoletly pristine.

just take your clutch out and put a couple layers of skateboard tape on the face and slap it back together.

BAM money saved

That looks good. Did you check the price on it after you added it to your cart?


Thai and myself are both running ClutchMasters with good success (so far at least). I'm using the FX200 and he's on the 300. Same pressure plate and material on them, his has a segmented face, while mine is a full faced. Pedal feels like stock on mine, but it does seem like the area of actual engagement is somewhat narrow.

Never drove a Clutchmaster in an Evo, but I've driven a few Subarus with them and they all felt great. With my rebuilt, I off'd the Exedy twin for a single disk. I'm using an ACT light flywheel with it. For flywheels, it favorable to use an all steel/chromoly as opposed to aluminum ones.
