rob77,

Nah, Hicks can't speak english, he barely manages to drool. His parent dropped him on his head when he was a baby, I'm surprised he's smart enough to keep breathing.

He obviously can't think for himself, when people say "Hick's go do a burnout man!", he just says "Uh,..OK!"

Just kidding Hicks, well sort of.:slap:

See'ya:burnout:

Hicks,

I think you and I have lost complete control in this thread, oh well nobody else will be reading it by now. But seriously I'm sure some of us can hook you up with a good tough clutch, relatively cheap, and then you can be on your way again.

Do you run on full boost at the drags? Octane booster?

See'ya:burnout:

Yeah full boost!

And I had some wynns octane booster in there, because it was day time and quite hot. But I think the stuff is shit.

And also I saw on another thread you said that you heard that lowering the pressure in tyres doesn't work, but I recomend doing it. I'm pretty sure it helps.

About 20psi, and I filled the fronts up to like 45psi.

I've also been told that doin a burnout on a street tyre before you race makes no diference, but today I started off with no burnout and was spinning first everytime. Then I smoked it up a bit before hand, and ran 13's.

Back on thread and there are sad bast**rds like me reading at this time of night.

Go the single plate brass button sprung centre with uprated pressure from ross at Autoclutch.

So far I have recommended about 6 guys from here ( GTR's and GTST's have used him and I've had 6x GTR , 300ZX TT and rex clutches) off him with no prob.

Yeh yeh, back on topic...

Peer pressure's a bitch for Ben!

he didnt want to do the burnout first, but then we all egged him on... all the while he was saying was "nah, my clutch is f*cked, i shouldnt" then when the clutch started smokin instead of the tyres we all cringed and said "heh, what do you know he was right!"

Sorry Ben!

Rev210, How much did you pay??

Do you have a photo?

Dude check this thread out, got the pics. $330 for the clutch plate I paid. Don't install yourself, putting the gearbox back in is more pain than the $250 for labour.

Yeah thats the one i will be going for! I was quoted $600 fitted but didn't gtstvspec say he could get good deals on clutches?

are you able to see if you can get a better deal for SAU boys?

Also is Macka still running standard clutch? I still am and as a result have to launch quite nicely.... hence the reason while no quarter mile times..... after nect couple of engine mods are done loks like the next thing will be the clutch!

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
