like around 2000-3000. Would that hurt the car's mechanicals long term speaking if done moderately like a couple times a week...
I'm practicing some launches so ...

 

Well, it's not like you have to launch the car at 6000 like other cars we know

Around there you should be fine, just make sure you have $$ for some new tires!

 

tires and gas ... when is kumho making tires for us? Their tires are cheap and have kick *** grip too.

 

Who knows? I will be getting Yokohama's for my next set...whenever this damn feathering kicks in..lol

 

i dont like these bridgestones lol
2000 rpm launches wouldnt kill the clutch that fast?
If it did kill the clutch... would the dealer replace it?
for free?

 

Wear and tear of the clutch? No.

 

How about cruising at 70mph in 5th gear then downshifting to 3rd and clocking in at about 5500 rpms?

 

Hello im new here...just raced my frist car (RSX-TYPE S and i killed him) and my launch was alright, it was at like 2200, i wanted to konw what you guys launch at and btw my tcs was off

gas is 3.50 here
too bs to race lol

 

Throw some nitto's or bfg drags on there and launch at 6k

 

All your gonna be hurting is the life of the clutch an tires. Our stock trannys can handle a lot of abuse on stock tires. Drag slicks installed, you may start breaking stuff. But pretty much, your gonna break traction before you break drivetrain.

 

Good luck explaning that one to th dealeership when you try to get a rear end replaced under warrenty.
"How did this happen"
"Um, well, um, I had slicks on and tried to launch the car at, um, 6000 RPMS.... I don't knwo why it happened."

 

"I think there is a TSB for this one."

 

how much to replace the clutch? Can it be replaced under warranty?

 

I think you're right. Haha!

 

I thought the rear-end in these cars could take some abuse? Even with drag radials I bet you'd be ok (rear end wise). Its not like these cars make much power when stock. Your stock clutch wouldn't last too long though.

 

CAN I GET FREE CLUTCH REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY..?!

 

Never dealt with cars much, have ya? lol..

Clutches...are a "wear and tire" item..much like tires. IE, unless it is PROVEN to be installed incorrectly by the dealer/factory, then you cannot get one replaced. Any damage is USUALLY done by the act of driving, therefore not covering it. However..lets say if it just fails without abuse..then you have a case. But in how YOU are talking, no, not at all.

 

+1

The warranty only covers workmanship and manufacturer defects. If you caused the damage by hard launching or bad shifting, it's not covered under warranty
