Fixed the whip

[38SHO]

welp today I got my car running again

I installed the following parts

-transmission(thanks kelvin, shifts great)
-SHO Source 8lb flywheel
-Clutchnet clutch disc(this looked awesome, the hub design is the best I've ever seen)
-Ceramic TOB
-new ps rack
-new twice as big as stock PS cooler
-20.5mm/26mm swaybars instead of old 24/23

transmission shifts great, flywheel is barely noticeable, especially when you factor in I'm breaking in the new clutch and getting used to the new pedal, If you told me it was a stock flywheel I'd believe you, the only thing noticeable about it is the RPM drop off between gear changes.... getting started is about the same, all those people who say its so rough and not to even use it on a street car... I don't even want what they are smoking.....

awaiting alignment and to give it another once over tomorrow and I'll go see how these new swaybars feel.......

 

[K-Dawg]

Cool. Just be careful with those swaybars. Don't want you to back that thing into a tree or something.

What trans fluid did you use?

word, my old 20.5/23 setup would get a little hairy if u hit the brakes in a turn lol


just regular old Mercon, I might switch out to something better once I feel its worth spending the money on..... what did u have in it?

 

[38SHO]

here's some pics I took while I had it apart, some shots of underneath to show how nice the chassis is, its dirty as **** from the rack leaking, but no rust! I need to do under there with some degreaser and about 30 rags and scrub the **** out of it.....Threw in a shot of the old a/c deletion mod...

 

[SASHO91]

Which clutch did you go with from clutchnet? Before I picked up the CM3, I wanted to check out what they offered but ended up breaking down and buying a CM3.

Glad you got it back together.

 

[38SHO]

its just the cheapest one they had, it was like 125 bucks, stock organic type material, reybestos is printed on the friction part.

the hub of it is nice, all the springs are fully enclosed..... on their website now they have a video, some parts show how they are made.... This clutch looks really heavy duty..... its a shame I didn't take any pictures of it, but if you put it next to a stock style clutch disc, it makes that look like its a 5 dollar made in china pos, while this one looks like a million bucks

 

[BlackonBlack89]

cool. Glad to see it up and running.


X2 on the flywheel. People act like driving stick is totally different with it. (I think they can not drive stick very well )

 

[SeanMc]

You live in Florida, and deleted the AC. Crazy man, crazy. Other than that, looks good

 

[38SHO]

yeah I really only drive my car to and from work, and sometimes at night to prowl around, when your already working outside 9 hours a day, whats another 20 minutes without A/C.........

 

[SuperchargedSHOguy]

When are you adding the 50 shot?

 

[38SHO]

50 shot? you know I would never do something like that to my car.....




































100 shot sounds more like it

 

[St Louis SHO]

Why not do what I'm doing.































350 shot...

 

[38SHO]

at that point I'd rather go turbocharged..... cheaper in the long run.... gotta get expensive in a hurry just to refill bottles at that rate...... especially if you actually use it a lot...

 

[SuperchargedSHOguy]

So, whens the big day? I see you going through a lot of refils.

 

[38SHO]

i've never used nitrous before, if I had a zex kit, spraying about a 100 shot through 2nd, 3rd, and some of 4th.... how many runs would I get before the bottle doesn't have enough presure?

I'm trying to get those volvo wheels, I gotta do insurance, registration, might even get a custom plate, and I got a fucken failure to stop for a school bus ticket the other day.... POS cop, said there was no median and kids running in the road..... wasn't one kid with one foot on the road and there was a raised concrete median....... kinda ****** me off that he slapped my SHO as he walked up to it..... oh yeah and the fagget had a headlight out... wish I coulda wrote him a ticket for that....

(2) The driver of a vehicle upon a divided highway with an unpaved space of at least 5 feet, a raised median, or a physical barrier is not required to stop when traveling in the opposite direction of a school bus which is stopped in accordance with the provisions of this section.

if there is a median there take it to court and fight that shit.

 

[38SHO]
