looks like ill be buying a z06 clutch sooner then i thought :eek:
i drove it to elkhorn saturday morning and it started slipping bad and worse on the way home. i chanced driving to my friends house got there and decided i better head back cause it was so bad and about half way back it wouldnt engage for nothing so we pushed it through the intersection down to the pdq and had it towed to auto shop my dad likes.

oh well i guess live and learn...haha hopefully i can get the clutch installed quickly.

Go with a spec. Seem to be the clutch of choice for most.

I put a ACT stage 3 in the rx7... I love it.

SPEC was another one I concidered. Heard good things on both.

I think that's fair. My car is at best a high 13 second car, I just have the advantage on the launch. I think you would prolly walk me, but it might be worth the $200 just in case you didn't... :shades

$200 would be nice to have in your pocket Dave. But whatever...if you are doubting the Powa! of the Ls1, I understand :shades

What are you talking about Dave. I just like the safety and security of the advanced AWD platform. My cars are all being de-modded. I'm too old to have fast cars anymore. Why do you think I sold you the Camaro???

13.0? now thats an ignorant post. Everybody knows DSMs never run long enough to go 13.0 :goof
