Mmmm, "custom" and "clutch", you'll want to hope it lasts, the next time it needs replacing its going to be a lot more $$$ again. I would personally rather have a standard (ish) cheap clutch set-up and change it a bit more often, than a dear one that lasts longer; less chance of breaking other components if your clutch is the "weakest link". Apart from that, awesome, mega neat 'rolla with grunt, what more could you want?!

Ya i'd be inclined to have the same thing with the clutch by making it the weakest link. You can still drive with a clutch that slips (well, to a point at least) but you can't drive with a busted diff.

 

 

But other then that damn nice chariot you have there

Thanks mate. I'm working on getting some interior pics. I got the halogen lights as a kit from auto-one. You should still be able to get them.

They should be available at SuperCheap or Autobarn? I got crystal-cut (altezza) pair from Autobarn for around $70. :bash:

AWESOME rolla Matt, :lolcry: You're right too, do it right first time for reliability and strength.

thanks mate, we just cut the sump where it was not clearing the cross member and rewelded it so that it would clear. Also the custom clutch was made specially to adapt the ke55 box to the 7k flywheel. It cost a hell of a lot but was worth it as it saved alot of mucking around and it's probably the strongest component in the driveline now.

cheers

Matt.

 

Would you happen to have a photo of your sump mods?

I do but it wont help you much as it was taken when tyhe engine was in the car :yes: But here it is never the less. You can only just see the cross member.

Cheers

 

Matt.
