Ben is the only person in the history of ever to not like the FM clutch from what i can tell.

Installer/Operator error?

lol

he had issues with the FM clutch in his na.

apparently that means all FM clutches suck :giggle:

Yup. :D

Yeah... that car is gone. I sowwy. :(

I will look at your big boy rod.

And the FM clutch in the red 2000. Everyone who drove either of those cars hated the clutch. I installed neither of them.

The point is, i'm sure they're awesome and lots of people like them.

I don't feel like paying that money and chancing hating it again and having to do the job a second time.

And they don't make 1.6 clutch anyways, so why are we talking about them?

My FM clutch sucked too but that was probably 95% my fault

and this was the FM clutch and not the ACT clutches they used to sell?

the FMI and FMII are two of the best clutches I've driven on.

FM1 in both cases.

Both clutches had an engagement point the length of Texas.

I've heard great things about the FM2, but that seems silly for an n/a BP4W.

And again... it's not 1.6, so i really don't care about FM clutches in general right now.

I'd like to point out that Ryan_G is borrowing the mounts. I'm not reinstalling them so they will be for sale if he decides to pass on them.

I feel that it is far more likely that I will just buy them unless they rattle me to death. Especially now that I have a secondary vehicle in case I need to transport someone who is less forgiving.

Another care package from Amsoil.

And ES control arm bushings.

And JDM y0 BP5A ecu.

Nice.
is the 5a mainly to rev higher without going standalone?

Yes. Supposedly a small power bump and will play nice as a stopgap if i get a BP5A cam. Also the car the ECU came from had a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold that probably flows better than the stock garbage we got here, so it'll go nicely with the RB header i'll be ordering in the next week or two. :)

And no emissions, so i can remove that shit even before i go Megasquirt.

And because no emissions, i can remove the cat that PO said was bad and causing CELs (though i haven't seen one yet) and not care. Bonus for not having to buy my midpipe twice.

It's a stopgap that while may seem silly in light of going megasquirt eventually anyways, allows me to steam forward with a few things in the meantime and not spend my money twice elsewhere. Me gusta.

If you need a new BP5A cam, let me know?

I don't NEED one, but wouldn't say no to a nice deal on one. Details?

:laugh: I laugh so hard when people use this line

"I don't NEED your stupid worthless pos part that you can't wait to get rid of because no sane human being would give you even a dollar for it...........

.............but I GUESS if you really really want me to have it for tree dorras and fiddy cents, I suppose I won't say NO to this terrible for me and amazing for you deal"


Yeah, people just can't wait to sell you stuff :giggle:

PS: I'm not even hating, its not a bad approach :love: (for you)

He NEEDS my swaybar, don't confuse the poor man :rofl:

PM me a price for your terrible bar that will likely make my car slower and quite possibly blow up in a fireball. I'll consider it cause I pity you for owning it.

It wasn't really a tactic. I just want details and price.


I kindof feel like that swaybar is too hairy-chested for me. :(
