Although I could be wrong. If that clutch that you're getting feels any better and holds up I may switch out. I know the racer clutch is hard as a rock to push and I was like WTF. I think it's gonna take a learning curve with any new clutch I put in. The stock tc is the only clutch I've ever drove except for Mike's racer clutch for a minute and a tractor.


Brian (Jester) Has driven his car long enough and hard enough to give a review. I have asked him about is thoughts. The only thing he said to me was, the engagement is HELLA quick. So you better be ready to drive it. Our Street/Strip clutch had a different engagement than factory of course. It took a week or two to get use to it. But after you learn to drive, you drive it like IT WAS stock.
I will agree with what brian thinks about the clutch. youll get use to it soon enough paul

I know it's hard to hear from others that the purchase you made may not have been the best, but I'm going to let you in on a little secret...

If 20 people tell you that you have a tail...
you might want to turn around and check.

ZPI does not have yours, mine or anyone else's best interests in mind, only their own. I don't care how much you think they are your friend... they are not. They would sell you a paper clutch if they thought you'd buy it and recommend it to others blindly.

And Rhythm... I want you to take this one personally...
AT LEAST I DON'T OWE MONEY TO ZPI... FINISH PAYING FOR YOUR TURBO KIT! THEY DON'T CARE HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU SEND TO THEM FOR BUSINESS, THEY WANT YOU TO PAY FOR THE PRODUCTS THAT ARE ON YOUR CAR. THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND, YOU ARE A CUSTOMER TO THEM AND NOTHING MORE!

SHOCKING... I KNOW...

They must have been desperate to fill seats at the wedding to invite customers that still owe them money but then again, we all know they don't have many friends left.

Don't hate the player, Hate the Game..

I know you were a tool, but I didn't realize you were that big of a tool...

If my motor blew....Do you honestly think it would take 18+ months to have another one dropped in and turboed?

Who do you think would do the work...



Edit.....Id rather owe money, and drive my car, then have to borrow a friends car and have no tC for more than 1 1/2 years

There are several reasons why my car is taking so long, 1st and foremost is the fact that there still are not 100% of the items needed to get the job done right. I had the 1 set of custom Arias pistons, 2nd block sleeved by Golden Eagle, 1st Cometic head gasket, 2nd set of Axels from DriveShaftShop, 1st built head... etc. Being first to build this car has paved the way for others to do it right from the beginning - RESPECT.

Another reason is that my current ride is faster than ANY tC on here so I'm not dying for something to go fast. I can be patient and wait for it to be done and done right this time.

The first to build this car? You actually have to have completed the build + turbo and be driving it to have that title....RESPECT.

Any how, so I will be providing an update on the Clutch/flywheel combo after it's broken in. Will be making some more vids soon. I'm going to try and get Rich to stop working so much, so he can do another heads up race with his S/C'er vs. Louis in the Stage 0 again.

You bet...I love getting down on the bike. Make sure there's a camera there!
