If you've got an ACT clutch, you MUST use an ACT clutch disc. If it keeps giving you shit, check into your flywheel's step height. I had to modify the factory step on my car from .614 to .610 so it would fully disengage. Yes. The thickness of a human hair. At least... my hair anyway. I got some thick ass hair. No homo.

 

talked to ACT today, their clutch's are made to stock spec. so they can be used with any disk. LSD motorsports confirmed the information today, and i purchased one of their 6 puck disks for 127 shipped.

I'm gonna hopfully tear that thing apart tomarrow and inspect everything closly, if the pressure plate shows any signs of problems, i'll be replacing that as well. Otherwise i'm gonna give it a shot as is. with the new clutch disk, and the old trans.

 

You spoke too soon:tsk:

 

hey tony what about south bend clutches

 

no clue what your talkin about?

I'm struggling in my mind to figure out how, less material on the clutch disk could cause it to not let go when i press the pedal down, but due to the appearance of this disk & the missing parts of the pads. I'm replacing it anyways. Hopfully this will resolve the shifting issues.

the leading portion of each pad as some amount of material missing.

 

replacement clutch resolved the shifting issues. Now onto yankin the motor to put the ACL's and other crank in position. Probably start that project next week some time.

 

sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet Tony. I'll holla at you sometime this week, I have been busy as shit and totally forgot to call man sorry.

 

I'm really starting to think that i wanna keep my 2.5 inch exhaust with ES Oval and just run an electronic cut out off of my 3inch downpipe.

The plan was to just upgrade to 3inch & throw a magnaflow muffler on, but after driving a car with that exhaust on it, i'm starting to think that i kinda enjoy my quiet exhaust.

I already said you should do that a long time ago h:

 

i must have forgot.. idk i need to pull everything & swap out my bearings & crank some time this week. Then it's gonna time for some more tuning. I need to crank this thing up. Gonna have to show some of the locals what the hondas are really made of.
