Danteneon Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I love how you still haul ridiculous amounts of stuff with your car I like to cook my pets and my family. Use commas. Don't be a psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Shes been on house cleaning/ getting ready to move mode the last 2 weeks. Running around town dropping stuff out at storage, donations, and the dumps. Im actually thinking about getting a trailer hitch for it for some bigger stuff.

xt2005bonbon Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Im actually thinking about getting a trailer hitch for it for some bigger stuff. You should. I got mine from Uhaul. It was pretty inexpensive. Installed it myself. Pulled a 2500lbs load over a 2500 mile trip during winter last year . Piece of cake for this car and I am stock.

OutbackXT05 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Im seriously pissed at this damn car. My 2 month old Clutch Masters FX300 took a shit on me at the track. It only has maybe 2500 miles and barely 5 launches on it and it said screw you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutbackXT05 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Honestly ive been thinking like maybe 330whp (blouch 20g on 91 pump) but judging by my trap speed i highly doubt that. Highest trap speed was a piss poor 105mph. There was a exhaust intake tuned 2012 wrx trapping 106mph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Hmmm... what's the clutch rated to? Did you break it in properly? Sent from my SGH-T699 using Tapatalk 2 -Brandon 2007 Chevrolet Suburban LT3 1981 Chevrolet C10 LWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Yup first 500 miles took it nice and easy. Lots of stop and go. I drive it traffic going to school. Theres people on this forum around 450wtq no issues with this clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Im seriously pissed at this damn car. Well, it's not the car's fault you know . It's the clutch's.. Sorry to hear that your clutch is dead already. At least, the block is OK right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highest trap speed was a piss poor 105mph. There was a exhaust intake tuned 2012 wrx trapping 106mph 20g's aren't good turbos on EJ cars, so you are probably right. Who did the clutch install? If the PP->FW bolts aren't torqued properly, that can cause quite a few issues. Your best bet is to pull it and ship it to CM. to see if they will warranty it.

OutbackXT05 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 I did the clutch install. Got the flywheel resurfaced to their specs and torqued it properly. I just gave them a call and said to remove it so they can look at it. I know clutch masters is a good company so hopefully they will help me out here. If not im gonna have a part out.

OutbackXT05 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 So what I did was put my oem exedy clutch back in (already has over 200+ launches on it) And took that to the track today on my stock tires. http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/tt307/fibtlcivic/IMG_4489_zpsa2293475.jpg http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/tt307/fibtlcivic/IMG_4491_zpsb48dc703.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 I was trying soooooo hard for that 12.9 but just couldnt get it. Couldnt get the 60' down. I think because the boost threshold is so damn high I just couldnt get off the line strong. Oh well. Depending if I get a new clutch or not im gonna be getting some more parts and a dyno/road tune.

OutbackXT05 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Oh and I beat a ZL1. Its a priceless feeling to beat a car that costs almost 60000 dollars. Although my buddies ZL1 ran a 11.9 @ 122mph tonight so im no where near him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Nice. Why did you use your stock tires for those runs? And how long does it take you to swap clutches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 My 255 hankooks were too grippy. I put the stockers on and still couldnt even spin them with launch control at 6200. I changed the clutch this time in 4.5 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
