Your car is not normal tho

BYT*SS*TURBO 07-25-2011 12:34 PM

I believe he is referring to pre-turbo days ;)

WSFrazier 07-25-2011 12:38 PM

NLS does infact shave time at the track. Every little thing helps.

I've been NLS and side stepping off 2step using WOT Box for over year with many track passes.

Never did like that Exedy clutch ever since Dan got one of the first ones years ago.

OP picture looks like driver error to me.

Supercharged Guy 07-26-2011 02:44 PM

Dont tell me that man... shit i took out 1 trans with it so far haha... clutch is still holding

BYT*SS*TURBO 07-26-2011 05:55 PM

It is indeed the Hypersingle. I have it on my car and haven't had an issue. Oscar also had it and it held up for the nitrous pulls just fine. This guy does drive the snot out of his car tho and likes to break parts lol

T-Man 07-28-2011 03:56 PM

Just more proof to everyone that anything can happen with any clutch/MFG out there. No one clutch is 100% godlike.

Thanks for posting BYT.

09BlueBaltSS 07-28-2011 04:53 PM

Is exedy going to help him out or no?

elecblue06 07-28-2011 05:06 PM

i wish i had a picture of one of the guys from my shop.. clutch exploded and fucked up the firewall lol

BYT*SS*TURBO 07-29-2011 09:29 AM

His Trans cracked as well. There was a massive tranny/clutch failure that went down. Im not sure if he contacted Exedy but he bought a new one anyway along with a ZZP S2 Tranny.

09BlueBaltSS 07-29-2011 02:29 PM

Ballin!! LOL

riceburner 07-29-2011 02:31 PM

for sure he should contact exedy. exedy replaced bolus' clutch for free. a free $1,200 clutch would help him at the moment i'm sure. lol

^This.

And if that clutch breaking caused damage to his trans, would that in turn be on Exedy?

Im sure they a disclaimer of some sort relieving them of responsibility but they should replace the clutch

BYT*SS*TURBO 08-01-2011 09:46 AM

He's welcome to contact them and ship the box of pieces back to them lol. We have it all saved. But he already bought a new one and ZZP S2 trans. Im sure he could sell the free one tho and recoop some of our fees :)

I would say exedy does have a claims department like anyone selling parts does. Only thing is he will have to prove to them it was a part failure and not a end user error. Most claims are denied if anyone wants to know the truth lol.
