Message Looking in from the starters view

These where once just last year a nice pretty Black set of 3" down pipes, look what that heat from them turbo's does.

Here was the major hold up this time. Even thought I got all new SS bolts and nuts, the heat from the turbo here on the drivers side turbo, locked all these nuts on them bolts. Lets just say major pain in the ass cutting all three of them off.

Tranny down just now, here it is as is......

I didnt see this at first, because once I dropped the pressure plate, my eyes went straight for the flywheel surface, to see how bad it was. Yes I'm sure you know what those little peices are ( Genic )

Heres the pressure plate side of the disc, pads look damn near brand new still.


Heres the flywheel, to be honest, it didnt feel that bad, but it's getting pull and replace with the carbon/steel insert ( shipped tomorrow ). Threw all the replys this will get, SOMEONE please tell me if those flywheel bolts are reverse threds. I'm having a hella time getting any of those out. That's clutch dust in that center part, not missing paint.

Now here's the flywheel side of the disc, pads are shot, worn flush to the buttons and look at the heat marks on the inner part of the disc as well.

Here's a lot of pain and heartache in the pawm of my hand....... Sad , just sad :(

STAGE V++++
Going to XIII and beyond :)
