    Driftmotion intercooler kit?

    I just put the diftmotion intercooler kit on my car. It was sort of a pain in the ass to install. The end tanks on the intercooler are cast aluminum and I pulled the caps off (the caps say CX racing right on them) and wiped my finger in the corners as far as I could reach and there was grit like...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    Well the clutch I got from Driftmotion cured my problem. Avoid the cheap low quality w58 clutches on ebay unless you want to be a sucker like me.

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    The backstep looks good though I haven't actually measured it, if it is supposed to be .020 I believe it looks to be at least that. It was done by a reputable machine shop. I have serious doubts that the thread starters problem was cured by adding another .002 to .005 to the backstep. It would...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    The flywheel was machined before I put the first clutch in and just barely has smoothed out the machining lines. probably has about 75 miles or less on it. It was all clean of oil or grease when I pulled it apart. I ordered a clutch from Driftmotion that is supposed to handle 375 foot pounds of...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    Right, after I posted that I realized he meant the engine seal, not the transmission. Anyway I pulled the clutch out and there was nothing obviously wrong with it, so I threw in a used stock replacement in it just to see what would happen and it slipped just as bad. My next step is going to be...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    Rear seal?? Could you give me a little more detail because I don't understand how the rear seal leaking could cause clutch slip? And ForcedTorque, your point is well taken, but I don't think its possible for the transmission itself to "slip" without stripped splines or broken gear teeth which...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    The disc I'm using is a ceramic 6 puck, Here is the exact setup I bought. My motor has typical mods and makes about 300hp at 14-16 psi but it slips well below that (4-7psi at 3500+rpm). I put a new input shaft seal in the w58 and re sealed the front bearing cover to prevent any oil from getting...

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    I am having the exact same problem as the original thread starter with my 87 turbo with w58 swap. I have the clutchmasters stage 2 disc and pressure plate with a freshly machined stock flywheel including the step and properly adjusted freeplay. Has anyone had this problem and actually resolved...
