Hermm, found something interesting...
After driving MrGone's car from The Dalles to pick up Chris' car, I've noticed my clutch pedal is almost non-existant. Shawn's pedal is springy, smooth, and engages instantly (kthx to the excedy).
When i first got back into my car, i thought the clutch was getting stuck down on the floor! it gave no pressure back (well, not as much as Shawns). Also, when I was pressing it down, it would seem like it was clicking/grabbing and it would make that creaky spring noise... I guess I'll try a clutch fluid flush here soon to see if that's the issue.
If it's the clutch... well... to autotrader it may go... :/
oh, and Jeff, i dunno what I was thinking building up a VG... VE > VG

no C, just sounds like it lol.
The strange thing is Anton got better mileage in my car than I did in Chris's but I was babying it, while Anton was playing VE powah in mine
. Chris has a y-pipe and stock cat/catback, I just have the greddy/test-pipe. I doubt the intakes would make a difference (pop charger vs. CAI)
I was mentioning a few days ago to you that your clutch felt like a cable clutch, I dont know why

Hmmm. 1st it was get rid of the VG and buy a muscle car. Scratched...
Then it was build some super VG motor. Scratched
Now it's buy a VE maxima........![Smilie](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Personally, I'd probably turbo the VG. Do a very basic kit, get your 200-220hp and enjoy it. You will be faster than alot of cars out there. I might have a small turbo perfect for this for sale in the future also. All rebuilt

Just buying the Ve makes sense... i can get a VE for less if not equal to what i sell mine for... thats 30hp for "free"
