So guys, i need to know which workshop should i go to install my clutch next time?? Im frm melbourne west side of town.. So any suggestions would be appeciated..

One more thing noticebly, during hot weather (yes temperature), clutch just slip badly almost undrivable all over the gears..Cant feel the bites and just slipsss .. But during early morning or cooler weathers, clutch seems to bite nicely??? No issue whatsoever during cool weather.. Is this normal?

No leaks at all otherwise it would have been or visibly all over the clutch plates.. Only thing was the clutch compny suggested when it was returned was, it had sources of lubes around the bearings which to him causes to contaminate the clutch!! ..??

I would certainly get it look at next time when installing new clutch .. But what are the things to watch out for installing new clutches to avoid these mishaps from occuring again? I know shop owners should know there stuff.. Its just that these clutch i got and the company owner told me to avoid lubricating his clutch?? He has a big name and his clutch company name is big in australia even here they promote his stuff in SAU..

. Its a street/daily car .. Stock internal and stock turbo otherwise everything else modified.. Thanks for the in put.. ImLooking to get exedy this time and fingers cross..

Hi gangs... Just want to vent my frustration, less than 6 months a go i changd my clutch to one of the reputable clutch company that everyone praised about in australia, got it installed from a reputable workshop in the west of melbourne..clutch did not last, slips after 2 months of driving it (not because i trashed it hard), got it returned had to pay for new plates as apprently when it was installed its got oil traces on it and its contaminated.. Fork out few hundred dollars and i told him i just want it fix (as the warranty got declined).. I adviced the shop owner to make sure whoever installing the new clutch again to do not put any trace of oil or lube as per instruction of the clutch compny.. These shop owner warned me these clutch compny and the quality of the clutch they make is a " head ache" .. And that if it slips for the 2nd time, they will not accept that its there fault and he actually offered me not to pay for the 2nd labour but i insisted i will pay anyway providing its not goin to get contaminated.. And he said that there workshop knows how to install these clutch As they have had it installed before with other cars but insisted again that its a "headache clutch".. Now, 3 months later, after babying the clutch, not attempted to even slightest trash on the clutch, and what do u know? Its SLIP badly again.. I just spent a lot on it.. Im soo pissed about it..I felt i got rubbed big time.. by who? I dont know who's at fault, the workshop or the clutch company!!! As much as i want some answers, i dont think i will get that answer as i already know what both side will tel me... Arrrggg... Moving forward, as i need my car every week, im looking once again a new clutch kit and new workshop.. Please anyone help me with reputable workshop close to my area? Im from the west.. And my car is only running -200 rwkw .. Exedy heavy duty button clutch any good for the power i got at the moment? What are the chances of slippage again with exedy clutches? Thank you all in advance..

Well first things first, i hardly drive my car, i mean like 3x a week and i do get carried away sometimes... Since the clutch was in, i have done 1500 klms and i honestly i did gave it a hard time several times since.. Im no hoon tho..i just wanted how it would feel like with the new clutch in.. I guess im learning it the hard way.. Im pretty new with these sort of stuff..

Usually?? Means its not necessarily and you dnt have to right? Well if thats the case i might have wasted my money and possibly will be getting a new clutch again as my new clutch has already been slipping .. Im sending it back to the company as they insist to investigate it further as To why its already slipping..clutch is actually on the way back to the company today, had a chance to see it before it was sent back And the shop owner told me its got all blue marking all over the clutch disk which mean heat.. He said its most likely i didnt do proper run ins.. He told me for atleast the first 500k to take it easy otherwise clutch would worn out easily.. Is this correct? And the owner advice me most likely the clutch company would not cover warranty on it if it finds the faults was me.. Which mean i just wasted alot of $$$!!! Is ther anything i can do about this?? I dnt want to buy another clutch if there is a way out.. Any suggestions as to what i can do if worst comes to worst?

Hi all.... When u installed new clutch, do u need to do "run ins" or " soft drive / no trashing " for at least minimum 500k's before you can trash the clutch hard??..or doesnt matter??i will tell u the reason after why i ask once u guys answer the question first....

I will for sure take it to mechanics to check it properly.. I doubt its the wheelspin, lolz.. I cant even get it to do the wheelspin anymore as it doesnt grip or clutch slippin.. Cheers guys for the info..

What can i do? Do i need to get new clutch again or is it repairable??

Hi all. Im no car expert, if my explanation does not make sense , let me know.. Ok , since replacing my old clutch to jim berry clutch, im experiencing one problem in particular.. Wether im using high boost , low boost or switch my boost off (ebc), these happens regularly now and it used to be noticeble on 3rd and 4th gear, but now its worsen and i can feel it on 1st and 2nd gear... Only when the car gets really hot, when i put my foot all the way down or even half throttle, it revs so high and fast, but the car does not feel its goin that fast , if u know what i mean?? I have to control the throttle to be able to feel the car is actually moving , it felt like wether im pushing it hard that the car revs so high quicker to hit 7k rpm but its not going nowhere? ? I dnt knw if its slippin, as it has a brand new clutch ..could it be boost problem??

Terry, whats good vitamins for work outs? I dont do heavy liftings or anything (beginners only) , just started gym again but my diet is not as good. I just bought swisse ultivite + natures own ultra fish oil .. I read the tresos-b+selenium , would u recommend it to say, a mild work out like i do?

Hi gangs.... Just got recommended by a respectable workshop to go and do my wheel alignment at Tru Track Suspension, it seems they do prep track, events and street car suspension and other services.. Theyre located in north melbourne CBD area, anyone heard of them before or done some works with them? Got my car booked for a proper wheel alignment, none of these cheap bob jane tmart el cheapo alignment..
