Right.
How'd you end up running the shifter and clutch?
Solid linkage or cable or pnuematic?

Ran solid linkage for the shifter and a clutch handle for a motorcycle on the shifter with a extended clutch cable for a R1. Worked out pretty damn good.

Anyone have a passenger side power window switch for an S4 kicking around?

Also looking for the **** that goes on the controls in the cluster for the rear wiper switch, S4 coupe.

Cash in hand.

Good thing this thread isn't getting all cluttered up with LS1 faggotry...........oh wait

Car is "done". Made 911whp and 866wtq at 18psi but the car wouldn't make power past 5500rpm. My coils were off a wrecked truck and the spark was leaking/blowing out on one of my coil packs. Tracy at Speedfab in Jacksonville, FL tuned the car and did a kick *** job Took it to the track, and without even trying to launch the car (2.8 60') it trapped 145mph on 12psi.

Few shots from a photoshoot last night

Does the newer t56 have a push or pull type slave? Is it possible for the slave to not allow the clutch to fully engage?
A friend is having clutch issues in his SS.

LS1 or LT1 SS? Stock clutch? It's a common problem for the clutches to "stick" on stock master cylinders. It woudn't surprise me if that was the issue http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/manual...-write-up.html

Its a 99 SS with a Aluminum flywheel and Spec 6 puck clutch. Has been working great for 20k. Now it barely moves when you release the clutch pedal like the clutch is gone. It happened all the sudden, not like the clutch started slipping and got worse.
And the clutch pedal feels fine, does not stop part way up or anything.

Are they push or pull type slave cylinders?

Keith,

The stock T56 slaves are known to occasionally puke. That could be the issue. How does the fluid color look?

I've spent a lot of time with T56s, let me know if I can help.

The fluid is pretty clean. Would a bad slave or maybe air in the system cause the clutch to not fully engage? But yet the clutch pedal feels fine...

Oh and I got the 7 back on the road today!! Just in time for winter...

Clean fluid is a good sign. A bad slave can make it not fully disengage.

Is it failing to fully engage (slipping) or release (can't get in gear)?

I've seen pressure plates fail and cause a lack of release (Azar's car).

And I hear you on the car. I got the new turbo setup on the road the beginning of October, and didn't get the big bugs out until mid October. Oh well, always next year.

Preaching to the choir, amigo. I can't fit in the car with a helmet, let alone a true cage haha. It'll get a 4pt roll bar when funds allow, *might* add down bars if I can fit them w/o cutting the door panels

It is failing to fully engage. Making to slip bad enough that you have to rev it 2-3k rpm for it to move.

Ahhh, I thought it was failing to disengage.

Failing to fully engage would almost have to be a problem with the clutch itself. Honestly I'd pull it, they're not that bad to get out of the car.

Ok ... And a few weeks pass i email again same thing, so if any of you could help me that would be great I'm out 1300.00 and it's very irritating
Thanks in advance

I have never heard anything like that from Neukin. But hopefully he gets you straightened out and some extra stuff for that long of a wait!

Well after doing further research on BBB, google and Honda-tech I have found quite a few ppl in the same situation even another guy on this forum was over a year and a half I pm'd him to see if Neukin ever delivered, sounds like he's good if it's a common order but if it's a unique application or a lower moving product he doesn't seem to get it delivers in a reasonable time
