Well thats good to know its not only me and Aaron mentiontioned it too having heard his do something similar lol. I love my triple, its such a smooth clutch. Yea its a little chattery especially on decel, but I love that it has life to it haha.

Mini Update time. Car has been semi-down for about a week and a half now, my turbo is back at MAP getting some love from Bob. I noticed oil coming out of my dump tube, not a lot, just a drop here and there. Bob asked me to send the turbo in right away and he would get it taken care of PLUS give it some love to help it spool faster. Bob is the man!

I've replaced my knock sensor. Still need to figure out where oil is leaking from. I hope its not my front cover. Other than that, nothing new to report...except I picked up something sweet.

Im getting a bit ahead of myself...but I just needed to see how the car looks with em on Can you blame me?







The wing is gonna have to go with these on I think. I dunno if I like it or not.

Thank you guys. The wheels are RX7 FD wheels, theyre 16x8 +50. Running 20mm spacers up front. Tires are QTP 26x9.5, the usual 16" drag wheel setup.

I do too, but with the Hoosiers it looks a little odd lol. Id only take it off with the hoosiers on and put it back when I put the BBS;s back on.
