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!

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
