clutch

[scoobzie]

hi guys my gear box is driving me nuts i have to double clutch to get into reverse when changing from 3rd to 4th the teeth chatter and finding it hard to select other gears when changing i was told my clutch is on the way out is there any good samaritans in the glasgow area on here who could possibly identifie this for me if i brought the car to them as a favour cheers scoobzie

Bring it down to my resturant on saturday night at 8pm and i'm sure one of us fellos SIDC will have a look at it.

Does the car go into all the gears with the engine off and without depressing the clutch?

Where is your biting point on the clutch? at the bottom or top of the stroke (oo-er!)?

What clutch are you going for ?

If you have plans to mod your car better going for a uprated one

and make your buy future proof.

Jimser is the man to ask about uprated clutches looks like he has

dun his homework.

I think ma clutch is ok. I was a bit eager in the first runs to put in a good time

when we had the dry spell. After learning to launch the car with out launch control

i have had no clutch slip so fingers crossed its ok for now.

i was speaking to a m8 who is into 1/4 mile racing he gave me some advice on how to launch he said to hold the reves at 3000  aswell as getting your bitting point let the clutch out from bitting point and floor it and was told its easyer on the car and gives you better reaction times so i will try this next time cheers scoobzie

I will give that a go next time iam up.

jac i tried it out just before my clutch kicked it i found it works really well the only thing is getting the car to sit still at the lights but once this is mastered i will be calling andy this week to get the car mapped so i have a busy week ahead with parts to get fitted anyway hope all is good and cheers for the replys looking forward to the next run up with you i should be able to keep up lol cheers scoobzie
