ACT should be going in this afternoon after the flywheel gets re-surfaced. Anyone else have that problem with the throw out bearing? What a PITA!
I think i know what you're talking about... It took me at least an hour to figure out the trick.

^ It was a hassle. Problem now is that the car was put all back together, and i started it for the first time, and whoaaaa........a loud *** constant rattle...sounds like the flywheel or plate. It rattles in idle with the clutch pedal down and up. So allan looked under the car and thinks that the pressure plate was not lined up correctly and it is out of balance, creating the loud rattle. So the car has to be taken apart again, and i dont have a ride now till its fixed. Anyone hear of this issue? Is this the pressure plate, or something else?

^Thanks, and thats what it was, he got it fixed and said it was a washer not lined up properly. Glad its done so i can have my car back finally! While the car was on the lift heres some things i fixed up: -Capped off nipples for the boost controller, modified downpipe so it wouldnt rub on ACD anymore, - refilled all tran and clutch fluids. It should be running great now. Hope to see everyone this weekend at the meet.

Let's organize another meet a little in advance. How's one of the up coming Saturdays and a run up to either VC or LT? Chime in on which Sat is most convenient for you guys. I can do pretty much any Sat after memorial day weekend. Maybe we could also organize either a bbq or poker run or something that involves a little more than just standing around.

Nice new rims RenoEvo. So what channel/when can we catch this commerical?
