Hey you wanna fork down $500 for this bad boy, I won't hesitate to sell it to you. Then 2 weeks from now, I'll have a new intake AND stage 2 on my car. The ball is in your court.

I think it's the extra weight of that LSD. I happen to know someone that might be willing to take it off your hands if you want.

Oh I forgot to mention the $1500 "I don't know how the hell to take it out, and don't want to go to the dealer" fee.

That's fine, I'll do all the work so I don't have to worry about the fee.

Actually it would be slower, that's why you are getting rid of it. That would mean you pay me $2000 for my car being slower. Get it?

Alright time to end this thread hijack. If I had $2000 laying around, it would be going into my car, and it wouldn't be anything that is on the market right now.

BLOWN> You car and mine are so alike. Mine is a Yellow with performance package too. Sometimes my car is slow, and sometimes it is fast I tell you there's no way to predict it.

I want to see what my car will do after I finish getting all of stage 3 installed. I did the airbox mod yesterday and exhaust last week, and got a short throw shifter on it's way.

I hope the clutch can hold!

How many miles? If your easy on your clutch it will last for a while. My dad was always worry wart about the clutch going out while he was teaching me to drive stick. I am always easy on my clutch, and I could go out right this second and powershift 2nd gear with zero slip what so ever. Just be easy on your clutch and it will last forever.

So what did the Spec clutch cost installed and who did it for you? I seem to need it now. Other than driving normally, my clutch is gonna slip even if I floor it in first gear it slips after the clutch has been engaged.

So that was you two at firebird. I was in the red cavy w/ the silver stripes if you remember seeing me. I was running pretty bad times also, and had a hard time getting traction. The cav kept heat soaking, I had a hard time keeping it cool. I ran my best time around 1030 also, a decent 16.183@86.98.

Yeah I'm the yellow one and Kate is the Red one. My clutch is so gone. I need help with it. I'm going to a dealer tomorrow to see how gone it is.
