    Build your own RSR clutch kit - Parts list

    Nah I can't remember at this point, this was 4 or 5 years ago. I remember it being on one of the pages 11-14 of this thread but I can't remember which post I followed exactly. And I had to buy the PP w/ the disc included even back then.

    Build your own RSR clutch kit - Parts list

    I done the piece together set up with the stock DMFW at around 55k, setting at 130k now without any issues and have been running stage 2 ever since installing it. I will say I can feel a bit of backlash when I go from coasting to back on the throttle, like when you can feel play on the rear...

    Power drop-off after shifting.

    Car: Cobb stage 1 v103 93oct high boost evoms intake catless 3" dp. Noticing something strange that sometimes happens when I do a fast shift from 3rd to 4th. After getting into 4th and going WOT it will lunge forward like normal then kind of choke back until it revs out a bit. You can even hear...

    Replacing cracked swaybar, what else to replace?

    Rotated my tires the other and was cleaning the salt and cleaning up some rust on the suspension I noticed my FSB was cracked. No idea how long its been like this but there was substantial rust around it, so I imagine it's been well over a year. I'm going to be replacing front rear with the...

    17's to 18's fuel mileage drop.

    Last Summer I finally replaced my factory 17's with a set of 18's. Running Nich Targa m129 and BFgoodrich g-force all seasons. The wheels are supposed to be the same weight as stock (25lbs) but I'm not sure on the tires. Lifting the two side by side there was no real noticeable difference...

    Rubbed all the new off :[.

    I'm never going to a gas station with diagonal pumps again. Creased inner wheel housing I was turning right while the pumps are angled left because somebody had the left side blocked off. All I could see was the top of a garbage can that I had plenty of room to get around. At first I...

    GoPro EVOMS intake sound clip.

    Boring and dreary day so I stuck the GoPro to my hood and tried to make a video. For some reason the sound came out terrible so I just cut one little section out of it where you can hear the harmonics of my EVOMS intake. It sounds incredibly annoying outside but you can hardly hear inside...

    Powder coating service coming soon!

    Just thought I'd let everyone know my father and I are starting a soda/bead blasting and powder coating service and should be starting to do things for customers fairly soon. We have everything about the process figured out - so now we just have to find the time to sit down and figure out...

    calling b/s on seafoam.

    I rebuilt my motorcycle a week or so ago and figured I'd give seafoam a try since the motor had been burning oil and I new there would be plenty of carbon build up. before: during: note that it is already cleaner because I wiped what I could off with a shop rag. after: It looks cleaner, but...

    cant wait for riding season!

    Been getting my moto ready for this year: New piston and rings: Dirty Valves: getting seafoamed After: Not as good as I hoped but I didn't have the time to really let it soak. Amazingly got it back together. Very proud of that since I never finish anything, much less in one weekend.

    GT5 snub?

    I can't say for sure, I don't have my PS3 yet, but I've read to check the used dealership after every event you do an even because inventory will change each time. and I'm pretty sure you can buy/sell/trade vehicles.

    So far impressed with the snow performance.

    Anyone else very impressed with snow handling? I was afraid with it being rather heavy all that inertia would be a downfall, but it doesn't appear to be so. Last week or so I went down some 2 lane road and in places there was 2-3 inches of slush, there was one or two turns where I felt the...

    Oil spots on rear valence after 10k service..

    Been neglecting my car a little thanks to finals coming up and noticed spots of oil in the dust of on the rear valence. Checked my oil and it's right below max when the engine is cold/on level ground, so I look under it and the aluminum cradle is covered in oil, some oil dripping from the oil...

    Need for speed hot pursuit

    I'm in the process of borrowing it as I type this. So far I haven't read anything good about it (graphics are horrible, no way to force anti-aliasing causing jaggies everywhere) but I'm just hoping it'll be a good "turn off your brain and go" game to help with some end of the semester stress...

    Color matched grill.

    All the pictures I've seen with a painted grill also have a golf grill or the front lip so I figured since I finally got around to painting mine I'd post a picture on my otherwise stock car. I was really impressed with the color match, previously we've had trouble matching red cars, but we were...

    Car Town

    haha, I play, good time waster when there's nothing to do. I was actually given the chance to keep a GTI if I win so many races with it.

    Anyone else notice "XDS" kicking in while cornering/decelerating?

    I'm not sure if XDS is the correct reference, but what I'm talking about is how our cars brake on the inside wheel of corner. Does this feature only activate when under 55mph? I first noticed something while driving on some twisty ass backroads on the way to downhill race, I came into the curve...

    And I thought subaru's paint was bad.

    VW has to use what is easily the worst paint I have ever seen. I've own my car for over 6 months with <6k miles on it. Any forward facing painted surface is ate up with very minute specs that looks someone stood back with a sand blaster from fairly far away and just had it. I also already have...

    Dirty dubbin'.

    Went to my second downhill race this weekend in North Carolina. God damn GPS turned a 3.5hr drive I probably could have managed on my own into a 6 hour excursion through terrible back-country single lane roads, about an hour's worth of gravel road, and it tried to tell take some path that would...
