What, the "no resistance" thing? THat does sound wierd.

My clutch felt like that for a while, but that was while the stage 3 clutch was breaking in. Its strange that it would feel that way from the factory though. Maybe it will change a little once its driven a while.

Never had the privilege of no brakes. lol

But I imagine it felt like when I just got my clutch in. The pedal went straight to the floor without much resistance at all. That is strange. I haven't heard anyone else mention the clutch acting like that. I'm sure if that is common we will hear more soon.

yeah the clutch does feel like that! i was like wow thats weird. It pulls great down low. I didnt pull it past 4g though. I know its not my car, but I still wanted to have some sort of respect for the person who does end up buying it.

Yeah I got mine done there also, Ive had them on for a year and still look perfect. They will even cover the dot matrix on the top of your rear window and it will stick wont peel off in the sun like others.

Hey Jordan! Was that you and the girlfriend on 691 racing the vette?

I saw you guys a ways back and thought that someone might be out for a race. For some reason I get that feeling when I see a car with fogs. And when two cars with fogs are next to each other, my feeling grows. lol I recognized the 'balts lights, but didn't count on knowing who it was. The car sounds really nice BTW.

Yeah that was me. I wasn't planning on racing the vette he just happened to be there. And i just raced my buddies S2000 like 5 minutes before and smoked him so I was still in race mode. LOL I figured I would try out the vette. Didn't do to bad, he defiantly could beat me but I never fell back from him.

Yeah as soon as I saw exhaust with that blue granite I knew it was you. I pulled around and then saw rims. You always said u lived in Cheshire and work 2nd shift.

Well, it was nice to spot someone outside of a meet.

Usually there is no one around.


I loved it when you took off after the vette. Maybe someday I'll get a quick car.

Not for long anyways.

I had them replace my defective stage 3 clutch yesterday. Lets just say that Ted helped me out big time with the install cost.
