Impressions after drving with new clutch and STS
Impressions after drving with new clutch and STS
I got my car back from the tranny shop a few hours ago. Heres what I had done.
All the syncros
Throw out bearing(sp?)
New Luke clutch installed
Short throw shifter installed.
The STS is as low as it goes and man is it hard to shift, Im sure it will get easier but putting it into gear now is a b!tch, once im going its fine. I like the notchy feeling alittle , and the throw is considerably shorter as well.
The clutch is great, with this new one I can really tell how bad my old clutch was, I was originally gonna get an oem ne but he told me the luke one was kinda heavy duty, My friend had one in his mirage and it was really good also. Its got a lot of grip.
all together I paid $600
but now I think my exhaust studs cracked on this car too, now I have to fix those instead of doing the suspension. oh well.
Im just happy to have my car back.

Damn, that thing is nickle and dimin, man! I had a luk clutch on my Maxima for a while. It was great for a while but it didn't last like I thought it would. It also ate up my fluid.
Then I got the ACT
That sucks about your exhaust studs puttin a halt to your suspension mods. You need the drop, bro. Lookin good, though!
