This whole clutch thing has got me frustrated and I remembered when I got the car I told my mom I'd keep it stock.

Either way im getting a 1k or less jeep cherokee within the next few weeks and I kinda wanna off road it.

So either way im getting the jeep...im just debating on demodding the car or not...putting stock clutch and injectors in...unmachined s/c...Need an exhaust tho since my muffler baffles are blow out...the new clutch cm sent to me would be for sale too. Idk cause i just love the setup now with the exception of the clutch...any thoughts?

Dan

 

i might be interested in the clutch

 

well then keep it

 

what else you sellin?

 

what is wrong with the clutch?

 

Dan, not you too? =(


Yo, seriously.. We need to find a solution to these clutch issues. If we find a clutch-cure, I guarantee we'll be right back in the ring for modding once again. No one still has a clue what is the 100% fix.... ****.

 

doesnt disengage...tried everything...prob rubed on the housing but we had the car open header so we wouldnt have heard it if it did

same problems everyone else is having

Dan

 

Jekyl has the FX400 in his car, installed at the dealership and is having no problems at all. They can and do, work.

 

new style or old?...and from what I read he hasnt been shifting near as hard as Rob and I do iirc.

Dan

 

just wait for the clutch to come in from CM, im waiting for mine to come as well, i already got tranny ripped apart again for the second time. I dont want you to unmod the car when you come back to pittsburgh.

 

Making not wanna do anything to mine. Guess I can ride the stock clutch till things get sorted out. You can't take a stock RL to the GMSCB not can ya?

 

Well he's taking it to the track and I doubt he's granny shifting there. I will ask him tho.

 

Exedy told me that 99.9% of the time if you're having a problem with a quality clutch it's because it wasn't installed right.

 

if its quality why id they relase a redesign the day after i installed it...seems like thee early ones were defective

Dan

 

For what it's worth Dan, I had mine at the track last night, and my spec 3+ worked FLAWLESS! I shifted very fast and hard, and had no troubles. It's like it just finally got broken in! I am having ZERO issues with it. Basically, I'm just saying stick with it. I've been through this crap with 3 different cars now. You will always run into some sort of a problem when modding a car. You just have to try and stick it out and move forward.

 

Yeah I definitely want your unworking clutch...

 

Once they get this issue figured im sure it will be fine...I'm just pissed at it right now lol

Dan

 

i already called dibs!

 

reading>you...cm i sending me a redesigned one

Dan

 

Lol ohh!1.. Reading>me .. Me<owned

 

So now my question is about all the other problems people have been saying were wrong with the clutch system... (Hydrolics, slave cylinder, blah blah blah...) IS this supposed to all be resolved or something with CM's new designed clutch?

 

you expect everything to be working right? thats just how aftermarket goes.. more so when the car is new and the parts are just now in the making.. right now is the most defective annoying time.. but i think everything will be perfectly fine with in 6 months-1 year

 

LMAO all in good fun

 

Well that explains it then the stock clutch is a good clutch. just the gm factory guys did not install mine right.

Seriously now. how can you install a clutch incorrectly. the only thing I can think of is not ensuring fiction surfaces were kept clean of oils and grease.

So I am asking, just how do you install a clutch incorrectly?

 

so how long do you think my stock clutch is going to last lol? im getting my 2.5" pulley in 2 weeks, guess ill have to keep babying it, but im going to the track tomorrow and im going to hit 13's if it takes burning up myclutch... last time i went i didnt want to burn it up but now i want to hit 13's
