thank you guys and just let me know if your interested
ok just got back from my tech he said it is just the clutch from what he can tell just thought i would give you guys an update on it and yeah its still for sell
so put a clutch in it. lol
yeah but i just put one in it only 6 months ago a centerforce stage one set i just dont understand how it could @!#$ up in that short amount of time when i had a stock replacement installed in it, it had lasted me almost 2 years and now i get a better after market clutch and it @!#$ up? i think that it is something more to it anybody have any issues with a "clutch" going out this soon?
did you get the flywheel resurfaced or get a new one?
proper break-in procedure?
clutch drops/burnouts?
I don't think it's anymore then needing a new clutch disc and getting the clutch resurfaced. I would be willing to help ya if your interested
yeah i broke it in the proper way acording to center force (break in time was 2,000 miles) i did no brunouts no clutch drops no racing at all until it was broke in the proper way. i didnt even start riding it hard until like 3,000 cause i wanted to be on the safe side. and i talked to one of the master techs here at my job and he says he thinks that it is the prussure plate the tech that i talk to said the pressure relase sucked espically for being a aftermarket performace clutch set when i had him look at it last...... but the guy who i had install the clutch, trans, slave cylinder, and master cylinder says its the clutch so i dont know.... i tend to belive my tech here at work what do you guys think
thanks for the offer ben but i live in waco i would hate to take the chance of driving my car all the way to s.a and get stuck on I-35 but thank you very much for the offer i think that i am just going to let my tech here at work take a look at it my employee price isnt that bad so i think we will just start from there then go foward with what i am going to do
One thing I've discovered with our J's is that when it comes to clutchs they are picky. I'm running an Exedy in mine just fine but its stock replacement design and there alot of guys ruinning high horsepower on stock replacements and when they upgrade to say stage 3+ they run into problems. Its really hit or miss but just a little info for you to think about.
thank you josh thats what the guys at work were telling me that it is somethimes the best thing to run stock instead of aftermarket @!#$ so i am thinking of doing just that but i need to save up the money first lol its going to take a while
well my baby left me i droped her off yesterday and picked up a 04 ls sport with 58k on it for 5,250 after my trade in (they gave me 2,500) can you belive that lol well on to a better motor better body so things are looking up i cant wait to start the modding and i will post up pics asap
Congrats on the new ride homie now you can buy everything i got for the cavy thats left
thanks ramon i hated handing over my keys to the dealer but i had to the trans was @!#$ again the head has been needing to be replaced for a while now and i noticed that when the guy driving off the lot driving my car for the trade in value the exaust was smoking like a mother @!#$ soo i think that it was just time to move on so i did im very happy with the new car and its your faviort ramon it a auto lol and what all do you have left homie
got a polished eco valve cover, yota trunk liner, guage pod with two guages, sides and rear that you know about, other small stuff in the garage and in my room lol
lol well i am very interested in the valve cover how much for it? and is the gauge pod just a pod or is it the piller and what kind of gauges?
its the pillar with three guages only got two though and they are the tinted 7 color trans temp and voltage if i can remember for the 03-05 cavy and i would do 125.00
50.00 vavle cover
35.00 pillar pod
40.00 guages
i tried to go to the myspace page and it said the profile was private.. so i dont know is the car still for sale?
It probably is where ever Mr.Cavy traded it in at. He got a newer J if you hadn't read.
yeah the title of the car was handed to sautrn of waco last friday
