I'm right near 3" as well. What makes it worse for us is that V3 front end. its so long it's even more of a pain, especially entering /leaving driveways.

Luckily no scratches on the exhaust yet! only on the ZSpeed plate. Which is a good thing because that would have been my Greddy oil pan.

MM, what's your hoenst opinions on your Spec SS clutch, streeting wise? I'm thinking this will be the only option I can go for 1,xxxhp

Is it on/off feel, or any give? Is it rough in stop-go traffic? etc

The engagement point is about .5-1" off the floor so as soon as you release the clutch slightly you start going, and in all honesty it feels like OEM NO JOKE!!!

Static is life. Would never go other wise.


With that being said. My expensive Motordyne ART pipes and exhaust don't like me very much.

How it sat during Black Friday shopping







Was going through some old stuff in the parents basement and found this gem.
How it sat the day I bought it circa 2007. Dealership wanted to take a picture with me and the salesman. A Polaroid?? lol
