Probably a cross between a buddy of mine with a 95 gst that does a ton of work with link, and the ecmlink wiki. Not all that difficult once you nail the basics down

If you are worried about thrust bearing wear due to a stiff PP. Might want to look into a South Bend Clutch, very light PP and seems to hold power!

I have one on my 20G 1G thats on E85, havent launched it yet, but at ~23psi it holds 3rd gear pulls no problem still have to mess with the car a little more.

Get in touch with Tim Zimmer, I think his name is Twicks over on Tuners. He is very very big on the southbend's and has nothing but good things to say.

What are you talking about? The 2-4 weeks is for transmission services. You are going to have a shop that is out in Wisconsin install your clutch ?? lol

Kits start at $440 shipped.

2g Talon · 02-02-2013, 07:11 PM

I was going to agency. Lol I only saw them on summit and like dxdracing.com. anyone else have a suggestion on where to order from?

No worries! Good deal, Southbend was going to be my next stop before I sold my Talon.

I still like to window shop in case I decide to go DSM instead of Evo when the time comes.

2g Talon · 02-04-2013, 01:19 PM

Well given the mods and turbo im pushing I was looking act 2600 or at least a stage 2. Went with the 3 simply because it can handle up to 400 ft/lbs if I decide to go nuts with it.

I just got this one today for a daily driver, But sold it 1 hr later for 8995

!!!! Should have listed it higher, I didn't know it would sell that fast.

Clean title, built head, clutch/flywheel/sheet metal intake mani, exhaust, mbc, tuned, gauges/wideband etc etc etc !! Now I need to go find another car to daily drive. This was really out of nowhere ! I get to drive it for 4 more days atleast until the title comes back and can get transfered, However the car is already sold/paid for now.

EVO 8's are that cheap now?

11secdsm · 02-06-2013, 07:16 AM

This one had body damage. Good price though

HaveBlue83 · 02-06-2013, 11:52 AM

DAMN, yeah I woulda....KEPT IT! lol

EklipzGSXkid · 02-06-2013, 12:23 PM

This one had a clean title, but caught the rear 1/4 on a parked trunk bumper! It could use a lower part of the 1/4 skin to repair ir correctly. Tail light/bumper ETC was not damaged, Just the lower rear corner of the 1/4. Sucks , But it was never reported to insurance being the owner didn't have full coverage. He drove it to me 6hrs one way, Which was nice. I hope in the next few years the get cheaper to buy. I'm sure the evo 8's will.

2g Talon · 02-06-2013, 12:59 PM

Look what was waiting for me when i got home today :D
