Thanks Jerry. That's nothing compared to what I know can be done with the QM clutch..... I'll make sure to make a comparo vid when I get the QM

I didn't use the ebrake then, but it does remove all the slack in the drivetrain... The only issue is the outer intermediate plate on the exedy (PP02) will be taking a lot of heat when you do the ebrake preload method. That sucker warps easy too.

Yup! Turns out that there is no difference in friction material between street and race clutches, so QM 8leg street here I come!

Thanks Joey. Good to know.

Custom Airbox/shield I made. Work in progress still but allows some ducting to be routed in and completely blocks the radiator and header from the intake.

Made a blockoff plate (that sits behind the vent for oem look) for the drivers side with two air ducts on it. Was a pain in the *** to get by the ACD pump.

get rid of your emission stuff on the intake manifold.. it will clean it up a lot more. good times at the strip.. i am interested to see how much ET you drop with the QM. its a really good priced clutch that performs amazing.

Your intake heat shield/air ducts look good, simple & I'm sure it works well. I will be doing something similar on my car swap I swap in the non-acd t-case & remove all the acd junk...

I don't know exactly what they would call the part, but its a modified underhood positive battery terminal from a BMW (BMW also does batteries in trunk). When you move the battery to the trunk you still have wires to hook up in the engine bay (obviously). I wanted to have this terminal mounted somewhere and available to tap into instead of just hooking up the wire to the battery to the stock terminal, taping it and hiding it.

Where did you get the hose you used for the intake ducting?

I did something similar, but I used shop vac hose. I plan on making an air box as well at some point.

Your car looks really good! I know it can be a pain in the *** to work with the reflecto gold in regards to getting it to stick to certain items.
