Barry, I know how much glumness there has been about your car for the last couple of years. I can't imagine how excited you are at the moment!! I bet you are driving Chrissy nuts!!

[White Lightning]

Aye, Wayne. The blighters want my money now though!

[White Lightning]

Excellent ... :happy:

We don't get over time :bigcry:

We are just expected to do the extra hours for nothing ... /Grrr

[ritch_w]

how come your last clutch didnt last long? I recall all the hullabaloo you had fitting it, and taking it out and refitting it... etc etc

[BraindG]

well - basically my bad, i drove the uprated clutch as if it was a normal one, and as such ive glazed it.... thats the long and short of it :D

[Crickle]

Aye, Wayne. The blighters want my money now though!

Barry, I know how much glumness there has been about your car for the last couple of years. I can't imagine how excited you are at the moment!! I bet you are driving Chrissy nuts!!

Nah... he hasn't driven me nuts... I'm looking forward to seeing his little face covered in oil instead of paint and plaster. He's been so busy helping me the past 5 weeks that he deserves something for him..I.e Manly car stuff!! :scholar:

it'll be nice to just hear his engine when he moves off my drive instead of the clutch slipping squeak I normally hear!

Barry how come you need such a heavy duty clutch?
Is your car heavily modded?

[zentac]

If youve already got that same package vant you get the clutch replated?

[BraindG]

weeeee its arrived :D - 5 days not bad..

[bradc]

now will you be printing out your own articles?

[Eurospec]

By the way top tip- if you dont have one, hire an engine crane. Use this to dangle the box from when you go for installation. This makes it a lot simpler to get the box back on when the motor is still in the car.

Cheers,

Ben.

Not that heavily modified, but original plan was to get it cos it was slipping (at bruntinthrope) then get forged internals etc... thats not happened, but may happen, and as such getting the same clutch :scholar: just incase.
