wtf you went picture crazy today....I need to show you how to use the focus function once and for all haha

RayArroyo · 12-23-2008, 07:27 PM

sorry for the crap pics, battery was dying,

Im very impressed with the way this clutch feels, it drives identical to stock , pedal feels great and shifts are very smooth.

When I got in my car last night I noticed it was a bit softer then my twin disc...MY car actually felt alot better on the ride home last night too, Hopefully the fluid just went to crap or mabye 'I am just anal...We'll see..But yeah the 6 puck is great...We'll see how she does at the track this year..The STI is for magizines only

i hope we dont have to bring down your trans lol but if we have too its ok i guess

\

and you are right, i think the evo will see more track than the sti this year Chinese food smelling exhaust fumes ftmfw

peteyturbo · 12-23-2008, 07:34 PM

We both need extra 14 gallon fuel cells that they sell at home depot this year for 75 bucks..It will make our lives easier..Or we can run the cars off of spirits

RayArroyo · 12-23-2008, 07:36 PM

Oakes · 12-23-2008, 07:38 PM

I'm sure thats the easy part

haha, I just stick to detailing the cars and their engines, not taking them apart

matt@turbotek · 12-24-2008, 01:47 AM

I asked Santa for a new clutch...he said " Go f*** yourself!" Is that bad? ..lol!

evogsrviii · 12-24-2008, 01:50 AM

i love my act clutch. its a little heavier than stock but its easy to drive and holds up well. I have over 30k miles, 50+ drag passes and countless pulls on closed roads

RayArroyo · 01-05-2009, 12:23 PM

so i spent quite sometime yesterday cleaning the car etc. rally red is one of the worst colors to keep looking good as it does not come with clear coat , is a one step paint from the factory.

also cleaned the interior

This is true, the same goes for most Pearl colors, this makes the paint soft and very easily mar-able, easy to swirl and quickly builds up rids. Looks like she cleaned up nicely, but if you can see a bunch of little "scratches" (I say that because they appear like little spider-web scratches but they aren't deep and you can only see them in light reflections) you should bring it to me, I'll make that paint look like glass and seal it very nicely.

Just saw the interior pics, looks to be in good shape! I'll gladly do it for you, just let me know! I'm assuming the clutch install went smoothly?

RayArroyo · 01-05-2009, 12:49 PM

yep went rather smooth, its broken in and feels awesome, we are tuning it this week

jjm4life · 01-05-2009, 12:51 PM
