enough to make me completely happy and proud to say, "yea, thats my car."

 

baller now huh?? glad ur car is getting done right .
Now maybe people will want to park next to you

 

oh yeah, mikey hit me up when you get the chance I have something I may need help with.

 

I had the ACT Heavy Duty plate with the Performance street disc

 

damn nel... how much hp did your civic put down to warrant that clutch? lol...

 

with the k series and other bolt ons...not enough lol
it wasnt as stiff as I thought the clutch would be...it was my daily just like my z now

 

so anyone going to the stillen meet?

 

hey guys.. so here's how the new clutch feels now. need some help. how do u guys break in clutch?

1) the clutch pedal vibrates.. from initial step to engagement point, it vibrates hard. can make my feet numb. doesn't vibrate when it's fully depressed.

2) The car is really hard to get off on first gear now. On a complete stop, if i left go of clutch just a little, car stalls.. need some gas to just get the car moving.

3) I can't get into gears half the time.. on the drive home, if I double clutch, I can get into gear easily.. say driving at 50mph and I'm in 4th gear. I fully depress clutch, I just can't get into 5th no matter what. Have to let go of clutch, then clutch again to get in. same goes for almost every gear.. but random times I can go in easily.

4) There's some loud noises when the clutch is engaged. From outside of the car, it sounds like metal hitting metal. pretty loud. but this is prob from the shudder. hope it goes away after break in.

 

hahahah not double clutching like you should.

 

oh im granny shifting alright.. shifting at 3000 rpm too cause anything higher, I can't get into gear..

 

lol double clutching! you rarely hear that nowadays only in big *** semis lol.

 

woooot problem fixed.. just had to break it in more.. I just went out n drove around 60 miles and it all went away. clutch is smooth as butter now. still a little shudder but that should go away after a few more hundred miles.

new clutch feels gooood man! engagement is so fast now. I was talking to tha shop's owner.. he was dyno tuning 2 Evo X.. exhaust, intake, boost control and a dyno got him over 90hp conservatively.. mod bug bite me instantly right there..

 

nice m0nkie, you gonna get that volks superlap? hehe

weekend bump! this thread is dead on the weekends hehe

 

naa no superlap for me.. Im leaning toward CEs or AME. but some spacers will do for now. I gotta put in some power mods.. cosmetic can wait

 

Sorry to hear what happened man, I hope you can get this resolved soon. Sounds painful to endure...

 

yee its fixed now. everything is working good. just gotta break in another 500 miles and I can start launching again

 

^ that's the kinda shiet that got into into this problem in the first place... hahaha... take it easy turbo... lol

 

hahahaha... but you can feel the difference so much on this clutch. launching should be a lot easier
