As the topic says.. it's dead... :cry:

...

Seemed as if it was on the way out since i got it (2weeks ago) .. but figured would last a little longer than this at least.. time for a new HD clutch... yay and "oh fck >_<" all at the same time.. this means no intercooler for a bit longer =(

Needed to rant somewhere.. figured this spot would do just nicely :-?

This is probably just going to make you angrier, but I think the best place for this thread would be the Bitching section :wink:

Luckily for you, heavy duty clutches are pretty cheap now.

Haha seems like the month for ppl breaking clutches, mine went not long ago, my mates one we are replacing at the moment, urs too hehe....

I just put a Xtreme 6-puk extra heavy duty in mine

got lots of bite so not great for continuous start-stop driving but great for the track/spirited driving...which is what i was after

pulled out this...

and replaced with this...
