Ya i've heard that too. I did research and unless you are running 400whp anyone I've talked to said go with the GMPP clutch. TVS guys have had no issues at all. Best band for your buck.

The only advise I can give to ya Jordan is I know you want a house and stuff and thats awesome. Great attitude to have. But you are still young man. Enjoy it while you can. Don't rush into growing up because once you do it's soooo hard to go back and travel and do the things you wish you did when you weren't ***** deep in debt and had the flexability to do the things you want. I just bought my first house and i'm 27. I've blown insane amounts of money on toys, traveling and racing motocross over the years but I don't regret it one bit.

No problem man. Lol it's funny because once you grow up you are going to wish you were younger again lol. It has it's pro's and con's going both ways. I love having my own place. But just looking at what I did when I was younger and where I am now i'm glad I did what I did. I have tons of memories and stories to tell. The only thing I haven't done yet that I want to do is go to Australia. I really hope to do that some day. Something I should have done when I was younger haha.

Ya Pierre lived there for a year then went back again for 6 months. I'm so jealous of him lol. The thing with a house is there is so much more to it then just mortgage payments, it's insane. And if I ever went to Austrailia I would like to go down for atleast a month to make it worth my while. But doing that with a full time job and payments/bills out the **** is just not in the cards.

You guys shoukd know by now, my weekends i turn to the bottle for answers.

So apparently, my brakes are sticking. My brake lights stay on till the car is moving about 10 kms a hour....

not to mention it feels very slughish off a line...****

Another one on the charts

Plus the service ESC/TRACTION CONTROL light came on this weekend, my thoughts is it has to do with this brake issue.

I was looking at your car. Very nice with low k! But $424 a month for another 2 years with an $8800 buy out comes to $18,976. Thats a little expensive. But GLWS man. Too bad you are getting rid of it.
