So I came home and found this waiting for me!!!!! W00t w00t!!! Gettin it put in Thursday, which is good because my clutch is about shot.
Anyone know how the stage II's are to drive... as far as daily drivers are concerned??
I ordered a SPEC Stage I, Karo thought he had one, but didn't... so he offered me a good deal on a Stage II... cause I'd told him that I needed it by Wednesday so I could get hte new clutch put in before I start my new job, so I could get to work. He said a part was missing from the Stage I or something, and would take a week to come in, so offered me this deal. Coulda just said "sorry you'll have to wait another week"... but didn't.
THANK YOU KARO!!!!
Long time no update from you.
What else is new? Get that clutch in!

Pretty and powerful, just like you.
a stage 2 is not bad, you can still slip it. if you went stage 3, youd hate it for DD.

Well I'm going down to Dave's tomorrow evening, he's gonna put my clutch in for me. John's riding down with me to get Ashley's car...
I'm STILL leaking oil, I don't know where from. When I get my "beater car", I'm pullin the Fire off the road, rebuilding an HO motor, putting that in, getting a 92-94 Getrag tranny, pulling off my darn body kit, getting my exhaust lined up right, putting on new fenders, then I'm probably gonna either put the stock GT "kit" on, or get SE front and rear bumpers and get the RK Lip kit, so it's sporty-er looking and doesn't sit so darn low. Then, I'm either going to prime it (black primer) and leave it at that until I get the little dents and stuff pulled, and then either just painting it black again, or painting it this pretty blue candee color from X-otic. Depends on whether or not I feel like dealing with the door jamsand such being painted or not.
And then, depending on how funds go, I MIGHT get a short shifter and put on a turbo... I haven't decided yet... and have to see how funds go lol. *whew*
I don't know how in the heck I'm gonna manage all of this, but I'll figure it out. Depends on how soon I get another car so the Fire can come off the road for her makeover.
Did you will the lottery or something ? If so remember I'm your friend!

...sinister Js just cant keep their clutches working it seems
haha yeah , definately good seeing updates on that car! As far as funds to cost ratio, i hope your situation is better than mine....how my car sat last april/may when u saw it....is exactly how it sits now, only difference being the eibachs are going in friday, and the CF eyelids i bought off Mark.....and i dunno if you remember all the plans i had for this thing to be done by last summer lol. well good luck re-modding, and lemme know how that clutch treats you, i was thinking about that one
On the other hand....you have other fingers.

Do me a favor, when you see Dave, ask him how the cancerous mole on his neck is doing. lol!
As for the rest that sounds like your gonna take it in the right direction, a deep dark black with the RK Lip kit would be hot, and what a coincidence you say that, because I have a rk lip kit with everything for sale...
Jack> LOL no I didnt' win the lotto. Basically the only costs I'm going to incur are parts.
Dustin> I'll let ya know how the clutch is after it's broken in... according to the paper in the package it says break in period is 450 miles.
Jay... hmmm... shoot me a PM or something with what you're looking for and the details, and let me know if you can hold onto it for a few. And I'll be sure to ask Dave how his cancerous mole is doing lol
Damn! Oh well. Glad to see you finally getting some parts for that poor Fire.
Shout if you need a hand.
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.
the break in period takes forever...
but once its broken in you'll like it
don't be afraid if the clutch is feather light when you first drive it.. it goes away
my stage 3 did that.. and now it feels just like stock
i have spec stage 2.. its alright for DD, sometimes a bitch in the winter tho.. but i love it, takes some time to get used to IMO.

heh I'm gonna have fun getting used to the clutch anyway. I've been driving an auto turbo civic for the past week. I'm just NOW getting used to the fact that there is no clutch to push in when I start the car... thank goodness I haven't tried to shift it lol. I bring that back tomorrow (the Civic).... that is... if I decide to give it back LMAO (j/k... I don't wanna be killed) lol
aww happy to see you got your part on time
hope you have fun with it

I recieved a simliar package from Karo a few weeks ago.
Good luck with it. I've heard stage 2's are pretty easy to get used to for daily driving. Since you dont have a lightweight flywheel (as far as I can tell), it shouldn't be difficult to drive at all.
