They will come!

OK. Update!

My exhaust leak was in the right hand header bank. Mechanic told me it was a little loose.

Clutch will go in today, and he will start it up to see if the leak is gone. If it is, I should have my car back tomorrow.

If it's not, it will be more time as the header will need to be take out, resurfaced and reinstalled.

Fuel assbly gasket should arrive and be installed today.

Crossing all fingers right now.

GL man! Do you know if the leak was present when you initially installed the stage one kit or is this something that developed later on?

Thanks!

I believe its been there since day one. I only pray that it was just a loose flange, not warped. Also waiting for overpipe to be moved a bit up and not hit the frame.

Installed the FX 300 today on the car.

So since this is my thread, here come a crapload of pictures for the clutch change

:

Ugly stock clutch:

Poor weak stock clutch:

Car next to a scary as shit Del Sol build:

Look at the new clutch on top, yes i got the FX 350:

New Flywheel in!

And the clutch is in!!

Wait you got the infamous never before seen in the wild doesn't exist FX350? I love the look of the stock Exedy clutch with the purple and blue hues. Mine looked just like that which reminds me I never got the clutch install photos from my buddy.

I love the purple and blue hues too!

Regarding 300/350, I think its still debatable and the 300/350 look very similar but look at why I think I got the 350 in the post below:

Sidenote, I need to ask Andres to look at the box tomorrow.

Quote:

Look at the face of the disc I got:

Now look at the face of the FX 350. Look closely at the friction surface, even though its different colors, it is the same shape and size. The small contact areas are completely separated by themselves.

Now look at the FX300 face and see how instead of being completely separated per contact area, there is still a little bit of material on the edges to connect the whole contact area as one.

What did the box say? Doesn't Clutchmaster label their boxes and the part number should tell you for sure.

Funny because no one has asked that question, only me and kept it to myself

Honestly, I got it and put it away while installing the Turbo. When the day came to take it to the mechanic didn't bother to look since I swore I had the FX300. I need to ask him tomorrow.

Box says FX300

In their site, the FX300 is not an option to buy... The saga continues. I'll call them Monday with a picture to get the official word.

How loud is it... What is the flywheel weight and does it stall when going on neutral or is your idle funny?
