GoldZilla Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Picked up my freshly rebuilt exedy 5puck clutch todayand got to have a geez under a 35gtr that was up on a hoist in the shop wat a gorgeous piece of Japanese engineering! Eww, my car went in today to have the puck clutch removed. It's a PITA to drive around in traffic with - I've got no idea what Adelaide traffic is like, but here in Sydney you can find yourself doing 15-20km/h, stop-start, on the FREEWAY at times. Spigot bearing is making a hell of a noise when cold anyway, so I'm killing (at least) two birds with one stone!

-RBD2- Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Really nick? Is it heavy or just super bitey? And is your clutch master vacuum assisted? I've got a s14 master and pedal installed already so it's not vacuum traffic here's pretty easy,plus the times I go to work every other sucker is already working so it's not too bad Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342557-this-is-the-new-recipe-chat-thread/page/28/#findComment-5380671 Share on other sites More sharing options...
180fan Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 These have actually been on the car for a couple of weeks now, but I haven't had time to take any photo's, and it's been raining most days for the last couple weeks here. Using my iphone again, cause i dont have a real camera 18x9 +18, 235/40 Toyo Proxes 4 Needs to be about an inch lower all round I think, and spaced out a little at the front. I also need to get a set of centre caps for the rims.

I've got a s14 master and pedal installed already so it's not vacuum traffic here's pretty easy,plus the times I go to work every other sucker is already working so it's not too bad Tried replying to this last night, but the forums were down... It's actually bitey AND heavy. I can deal with the heaviness (even though I'm a skinny mofo), but like I said, with Sydney traffic the bite is a PITA. It's either in or out, and sometimes the car shakes REALLY badly as you try and release the clutch to move along slowly. Nope, it's not assisted. Here's a link to the sales threads that lead to me buying my car (I bought it from Argo just under 5 yrs ago): http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/se...mp;highlite=%2B Here's a link to his posts in the manual conversion thread (from post #63 onwards) - my car is the dark green one: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=1545409 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342557-this-is-the-new-recipe-chat-thread/page/28/#findComment-5382358 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanso Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Just won a RHS Silver mirror for my S2 on Import Monster. My RHS mirror got badly scratched on the garage wall at home, far too scratched to buff it out with cutting compound. Hopefully the air freight will get it here before the 21st of this month.

kidafa Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Our new organic clutch makes the car a much more pleasant drive in traffic. Loving my single plate organic from extreme. The stag is the first manual car (converted on the weekend) and Ive been driving in city traffic and finding it fine.

RubyRS4 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Loving my single plate organic from extreme. The stag is the first manual car (converted on the weekend) and Ive been driving in city traffic and finding it fine. I personally kept away from Extreme clutches when I did my conversion. Ended up with a Nismo kit inc lightened Nismo flywheel which I sent all the kit to ACS for machining. Strong pedal feel, but very forgiving 1200kg kit. Not 'off or on' like most. I've had Extreme clutches in past cars and I haven't been impressed.
