At this point it has to be the slave cyclinder.... what do you think?

When you're pumping up the clutch, is it coming off the floor each time, or does it stick to the floor every time you pump it?
I talked to Jonny Boy last night... we'll check it out this weekend. Replacing that cylinder is simple if that's the problem.

Sorry Ian. At least we have good taste in wheels.
Yes, I got 18x9.5 +20 all around. Nothin special with tires, some Kuhmo Ecsta MX's 275/35... I can rotate front to back though.. so that's cool. Getting the tires put on tomorrow.
They weigh about 25lbs each. I thought they'd be a little lighter.. oh well.

Welcome to the club. Please post up pick of the ride. Yes we often meet at woodward, when summer hit and school is out, we meet at OU, and sometimes we meet in Milford. Many events and a lot of time to meet up with all of us. I look forward to meeting you and checking out the car.

Shiawase, mine gets driven year round so no biggy. Be sure you get snow tires for next season or you are SCREWED. Trust me on that.
Hopefully you can make it out to an event sometime.
Zminus -that is the X02 I assume you are talking about. We installed ont no problem on Nicks car last year. I thought it was pretty good quality. Though the tips don't look 1/8 as good as the real HKS. It was also DAMN heavy.
Neil- great to have another G35 on here, Cturnbull is the only other one I think. So your the car Speed Industry is buliding. Very exciting I hope it comes out well for you. We go to alot of events and post pretty oftern as you can see on here..
Dil-Very sorry to hear about your car man. That is some BS. He better fix it FAST and send it straight back. I would be freakin furious...
Craig-thanks it was nice to see you too. Love the look of the car its really coming together now. Now we need you to put on a Supercharger!!!

As Datona said, I've heard it appears to be pretty good quality. There was a thread going on somewhere on this forum about how the tips start to turn ugly and discolored on some of them pretty quickly, and some people had some rusting issues with it. I'm sure if you search for threads about X02, it will come up. With that said though, the HKS is awesome, but I understand the appeal of the X02 costing half the price.
