NjsGT's build.... with pics!

[NjsGT]

Power is money man.....gotta spend it to make it lol

Yup, Im actually thinking about picking up a black lung for the dyno tune....

well if it's anything like the one i bought i stalled the car cause i couldn't feel the clutch at all it was super light. it was well worht the money.

Yea, I have heard they have a light pedal feel due to all the extra friction surface which is good..... Especially on your stock slave cyclinder haha

Yea, mines been through 2 SPEC stage 3+ pressure plates.... They are much heavier on the stock slave due to being a single disk rated at 850 ft-lb of torque.... I should have replaced mine in the first place lol

Lol its always somethin, u would think if the slave was leaking before they would've seen it at island last time we were there and stoped you from running, u think maybe since you left everyrhing attached and the pedal dropped since there is no pressure behind the slave the fluid got pushed out maybe??

 

[Matt D]

Your almost at the end keep your head up man! lol Looking good!

Can't say Ive seen the manual trans left behind in the car and the motor pulled, the top bell housing bolts are easier to do from the top that's for dam sure.

yea but shouldnt it not leak regardless if its under pressure or static? idk man.... ill just replace it and do the dreaded clutch line bleed......... FML

yep, just about there. Im still good and motivated
it is abit tricky doing it that way.... you do have to save the last 2 top bolts for last... once the bottom half bolts are in and snug, all you have to do is let the tail end of the trans hang under the car, off its cross member and that pulls the top of the motor down and gives you just enough room up top to get the 2 top bolts in, actually with the intake manifold off its real easy..... done this wayyyyy to many times lol

 

[NjsGT]

-GT500 TB
-New K&N 8" cone air filter
-Entire Blow-Through setup
-Maybe deletes...

You have a great build going, keep up on the great updates.

You will love the mcleod clutch!

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Skip the deletes and grab the manifold

+1 cl manifold would look nice under that hood as well as increase performance.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

I think he is looking at the FRPP manifold

Thanx man! I know, I'm dying to test the mcleod out and to finally hear the new exhaust setup... can't wait haha

Skip the deletes and grab the manifold

Yea GB? Go with the stock motion plates and a FRPP manifold?

ther frpp manifold deletes the motion plates just like the cl.

Hmm, I didn't know that.... sooooo, what's the best price these bad boys are going for now?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

The FRPP manifold goes for around 500

If my tuner wasn't messed up I would sell ya mine and put my stock one back on

Handheld SCT

depends on what you want, plastic is lighter and cheaper the metal is heavier but can take boost, has bosses for direct port nitrous injection it's the one i have and i prefer it it's a quality piece but its also 200 bucks more then the frpp manifold but i can't say that the frpp quality is matched when i see videos of several cars with black lung problems.
