Lol


Well got the clutch out last night. She got pretty hot, and I bent a couple of the fingers on the pressure plate. Can anyone recommend a aftermarket fly wheel that will work good with a boosted set up? Not one that's going to granade either lol, aka a spec.

spec dis-associated themelves with fidanza. their flywheels should be ok.

fidanza re-designed their LD9 flywheels to have beefier centers. they should also be ok.

if you want to spend the money you can go www.aasco.com and get a stepped style (isuzu) aluminum flywheel, i believe they are $550.

www.aasco.com brings up nothing.

Do you know the weights of the spec and fidanza flywheels? I'm not seeing it on there websites.

Alright well I dont have a whole lot of pics right now. I did get a new clutch and shaved around 4-5lbs off the flywheel when it was re done. No pics of that, as I havent been taking as many pics lately. There will be more to come as Iv got shocks coming and im going to start doing the interior in the next couple weeks as well. Sorry for the lack of updates and pics so far







couple more





and someones POS hood taking up real estate in my garage...........

Question for you dude.
How did the master cylinder work out for you? I was under the impression that you would need a distribution block, but it seems like you dont have one anymore. I would love to get rid of mine when I swap in the Wilwood master.

It's been working great, no issues so far. I am running a residual valve for the rear neon discs as well. What would you need the distribution block for? I'm sure you seen the way I did my lines a few pages back? All I did was get some lines made so I could delete the ABS and put a valve in for the rears.

Thanks! Picked it up from a guy selling it locally online, it is the thin version so I guess they make one that's thicker. Just got it on tonight, it's nice to have the steering wheel a bit closer now too.

I think powder coating the wheels satin black would look sweet!

I have thought about that but im still undecided. Not sure if I want to go back to the murdered out look. If fact id like to get some different wheels completely but its just not in the budget right now.

Thanks. Fuel rail I dont think is available to buy new anymore, I got mine used from a member here. The manifold came from Vulcan. Some people have had some bad experiences with them so use caution if you are going that route. I didnt have any troubles but iv heard of some real nightmares when dealing with them.
