Big thanks To Steven King and Ped for helping with my clutch install. We started about 9:30ish and ended around 6. here are sum pics.
yeah, this was fun. We're not as fast as the Mr.JDM himself WJM, but it wasn't bad at all. I will NEVER drop a tranny again to do a clutch....
^^I agree my first time removing an engine with Liquidforce we did it in under 2hrs and we were farting around a bit.
I was prepared to replace the uppipe...but the previous owner already did! My car has a turboxs straight uppipe on it.
its alot smoother. The 6 puck likes to shutter when it doesnt have enough gas but it shifts really smooth around 3000 rpm
Sweet job guys and nice pics... Yungdz i hope you have fun with that 6 puck man! Maybe I could convince some of you fellas to help out with my 30k and brake upgrades...cough cough (glad to see that Ped was wearing gloves...at least 2 gloves) LOL Good job fellas!
how about a write-up for future DIYs?:naughty: or is there already one on the site that I missed through my search? I've seen a few write-ups on clutch changes doing the traditional tranny drop, but not one in which the engine was removed. either way, cool pix. -jimmy
Why did you decide on a 6 puck? Are you still on the stock tranny? If you are still on the stock tranny a good organic would have held more torque than the gears can handle. My advise is to be careful launching it.
We really didn't need a write-up, it's pretty straight forward. I did find this one though that sums it up... http://scoobymods.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8212
I ordered the same clutch Steven is using because it is affordable and he's had it in for awhile now. I don't launch my car so if shouldn't be a problem. Thanks though.
yeah the pix made it look pretty straightforward for you guys, but I was asking for the rest of us (me) j/k, thanks for the link! -jimmy
