what Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I am definitely not on my OEM clutch anymore.. I think that was gone at like 25-30k?? I am on my third clutch. My second was a Spec, and now my third is an ACT. The ACT clutch makes more noise, the clutch works good just always squeaking or chirping like a bird sometimes. I will probably go back to all Spec stuff when I need another clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 78K miles on the OEM still? wow! With doing the turbo upgrade, I think I'll want to have a better clutch... better clutch, better times. and yes, LGTKC, we're talking about launching at the track. Correction to my post, 68,000 miles on the stocker. I must have gotten a good one! Unlike most here, I have little to complain about the stock clutch except for the occasional stench if I screw up a launch. BTW, AKLGT your vehicle description cracks me up...... "hatch thing" I think they look cool, just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Paul, is that a young azn cross dresser in your avatar? Nooooo, dude do you know who that is? I'd run 3000 miles in the pouring rain to be her man. No makeup, absolutely drop dead georgous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fonts Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I'm sure that I saw a film clip of a kid launching his STi and he broke the rear axle. Took a quick look for the clip and couldn't find it. I'll search again and post if I can find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-3-2-4 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 haha I knew it was that video.. Anyways I tried to launch in my car but my 5MT has almost 200,000 on it so I slip more then just letting the clutch slam up.. However the 1-2 shift with WOT throttle causes the whole car to buck.. 2-3 is not so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
