well. it seems that my good friend didnt like my operating handbrake, ripped it and snapped the cable on me. lol so it shall be fixed today hopefully after work. lets hope my car doesnt roll away before then.

 

also it would appear that young Claudia is in need of a new clutch as her thrash potential is minimized by a very worn clutch, also the possibility of no clutch scares me so i must drive grandpa spec now.

 

 

Anyways, nothing really new to say. just that she is falling apart on me =[

hmm, i feel some decals itching to attach themselves to young claudia =]

 

i think the decals will have to wait. i think the cars itching to be closer to the ground :(

 

Not a big fan of the photoshop pic, will look better in the flesh me thinks=]

clutch>lowering>decals

Meh, clutches. Not worn till your running on the brass rivets like my ke25 was :(

I think its nearly time now, lol :wink:

For the handbrake, just leave the car in gear and it wont roll away. Thats what my mum and dad always tought us when parking our car. Leave it in gear in case the handbrake fails.

oh the handbrake is fixed now. clutch isnt real bad. not slipping that much just not working that great either.

maybe try adjusting it :(

yeah thats what dad thought, gettin a service this weekend prob so see if the mechanic can do ne thing then.

if all else fails. get a Exedy HD clutch like i did. pics of said clutch in my thread :(

no point gettin HD. chances are, ill struggle to use it, so may as well keep thrashin standard duty ones :(

I haven used the HD one yet but i can't see it being heaps harder than a std duty clutch. and its not liek a button clutch that doesnt have any slip in it.

in all honesty. i don't see the point of a HD clutch in a standard 4k, i don't see the point in anything that isn't going to be run hard all the time. i see the point in race cars so as you don't wear them down in no time, but for a daily driver that isn't thrashed like a racecourse, there isn't a point.

most HD clutches on the market are a very light upgrade from standard, the are much like a standard clutch in regards to feel with a slightly heavier pedal.

 

Id recommend going atleast to a HD, atleast then you wont have to change it again later down the track if/when you do some performance mods
