oh stop with your trying to defend yourself
we both know a shiftlight in a car that probably gets 13s is OVERKILL
a RFL blowoff valve is retarded. it might work, but i have no doubt that a bov that is meant for venting off pressure and not squeezing the air for a noise would work even better.
and the pedals. just get a damn pad from mazdatrix for what, 5 bucks a pop? they are cheaper and work better. i have no doubt your pedals look just like some autozone special that someone put on their civic.
and i didnt jump all over your **** when you called bs. i proved you wrong and you said my car has "more rice under the hood than hosspowah"
guess what? you are wrong and i proved you to it.
and, I am not jealous of that gay lights. I think it is ugly and a half ***-ed attempt at a rice wanna-be. All three of those mods did nothing. did you get any faster with it? no. did you spend extra money and time on it? yes. therefore, it is USELESS and ricey. simple as that.
you are right, i dont have much money, but i am not doing **** half-assed. The clutch has some meat left, and guess what, i used it till I have the money buy a new one. As for replacing it? It is an hour or two work at max with 1 person.
Maybe if you really think that is that much trouble to work on your car, hell, bring it here and I will do it for you. I would rip out all your useless ricer bullshit too while i am at it. Trouble to change an engine? It may be for you if you have to pull the FSM out everytime, but it certainly isnt "going through all the trouble" for me.
The difference between me and you is... I have a clean setup and the inside of the car looks stock.. While yours looks like... well, unfinished. You would think with your "fabrication" skills, you would at least make the a pillar match your interior color... it just looks half done right now.

PS.. the shift light took about a half an hour... and cost about 8 bucks.. And, unless i pointed it out to you.. you would have never seen it even if you were sittin in the car..

The interior is Grey and Black already.... Why the hell should i paint the thing grey when all thats going to happen as that its going to chip and flake off after a while???
Why don't i just go out and color code the whole interior and paint all the removeable plastic parts brite friggin orange????????

Looks like you are the one who doesn't know anything about drag racing.
drag racing is heads up- fastest wins, simple as that.
what you are thinking about is bracket racing.
so i have no experience in bracket racing?
try multiple trophies at infeineon raceway wednesday nights
no, i havent seen your set of the ****** pedals, but you know what, i dont need to. pretty much all of these bolt on pedals are half assed and make the car look weird. you open the door and you see some weird pedals that doesnt look normal.
if you are slipping off the pedals while heel-toeing, you need to learn to drive better. i have no problems doing it in mine. if you need to adjust the car and blame this and blame that because you cant do a certain thing... you just need to learn to drive better.
Consistency? I adjust the rpm I shift at depending on my launch. Not from a preset shiftlight. Using that and shift everytime right when the light goes on... might as well cut the fits off a torque converter and bolt in an automatic
Don't give me anymore of your bullshit. you obviously do not know what you are talking about. back to the original question, stock clutch is more than adequate for 220rwhp.

didnt think so, My friend has a Blitz DD and my RFL's piston and port area dwarf his.
I guarantee you if you put the RFL on a flow bench, it would be on par or better than most of your "unretarded" valves
Not trying to add to the pissing match but that was a dumb *** statement

I think we're done here.
And for reference YearsOfDecay, you are not at fault either. You were instigating some of the arguing and flaming, as I've noticed you do a lot. For some reason you seem to like to believe you are always right and no one else has another answer.
Take the pissing match to PM's next time, stop cluttering the forum.
