My clutch started slipping since I've been home on leave, so I got some parts and Dad and I replaced it. All the times I've had the tranny out before I was using a lift, so doing it this way was kinda a PITA but there were some benefits too I suppose. Doing it for free at my Dad's shop is one of them haha.









And a few pics in the driveway.





I wish I was a better photographer with a better camera. Oh well.

Thanks guys! Tyler, I still need a good camera and some classes on photography haha. Dave, I got the same one I had, the ACT Xtreme with 6 puck sprung disc. The only problem is the throwout bearing they sent didn't fit so I had to use the old one, which luckily was still in good shape. And let me tell you guys something...the ACT Prolite 9.5lb flywheel oddly enough weighs just a bit more than the Racing Beat 12lb flywheel I had on there HAHA.

Tire rub a little on the fender when turning but not too much :p I drived it an inch lower in front (do not try this at home if you care about your fenders lollll) That was a little too stupid :p But now it's ok to roll/drift/track it

so i drove roxy (my fd) to orlando and back to miami and then to tampa and back
and she rode like a champ...
but somewhere along the line i guess i drove over something without realizing or something
and it broke the band on my exhaust and snapped one of the bolts holding down the band
i have the HKS Carbon Ti...HKS was great, sent me a new band and its all fixed now

but heres the pics from my woes of the war with the road

this is the temporary fix i came up with while i was in tampa for the ride back down
gota love some industrial strength zip ties loll





heres the pics of the actual damage compared to the new band




and also 2 pics i thought were cool
i searched rx7 hks carbon ti to find a replacement part and 2 pics of my car popped up
and a bunch of pics from other guys on the forum too



got a new machine in the schools machine shop and i loved the name

My friend has gone to school for about two years now for photography and has gotten pretty damn good at it. He took shots of us skateboarding a couple nights ago and made us look like we knew what we were doin, haha. He'll love ur car too and would gladly take some shots. Let me know and I'll ask him.
