Update on my car, my exedy springs on the one clutch disk just failed "all snapped" not 100% sure what even causes that. I pulled the transmission apart and set it off to Shep to get it rebuilt while it was off the car with 4.11's.

Will post up pic's of the damaged clutch tomorrow.
Car is going to be a blast this year man. im jealous of the 4.11 haha.

Here is the damage of what happened to my cluch. This is a Exedy Twin Disk HD. What happened was i was doing a quick 3-4 shift it locked me out of all gear and got stuck on the side of the road. You can see the spring clean snapped off. It only happened on the one disk and 5 of 6 springs were broken.



Everything else looks perfect "Minus the one cluch disk"

Put in Steves new transmission over the weekend. 4.11 HKS final drive. very badass setup he has now. TSC 2.4L + Shep trans with 4.11's

On the interstate on the way to my house the car was going 80mph in 5th gear at 3000RPM. pretty badass.

I didn't feel any lack of power or torque from the different final drive ratio. car seemed just as peppy as before on the stock gearing it had.

I wouldn't be surprised if he goes 136 now with a mid 10 probably.

Did you happen to get that new tob clip from act for the triple? I would put it on any pull type clutch. Plus it would be able to be installed on any clutch you own for the life of the Car.
