Default klutch suggestion please

Good day,

SO my 2 yr old FM happy meal bit the dust. a bit premature.

thinking its form my cas oil leak ive ignored too long.. any hooot.

Tossed between two products really.

Exedy stage 1 280$ free 2 day shipping on amazon
or FM 1 $380 after shipping.

anyone who has tried both chime in?\

Im leaning toward FM since im used to the feel of it. and if it indeed was oil spoiled I might be able to save the pp and change the disk.. maybe FM would give refund for pp or I can find someone to buy it.

but If i go FM and find the clutch was simply worn IM going to be pissed and wished I went ACT or something.


btw its on a 96 with JRSC kit upgraded crank @8psi max.

Take it out, call fm and get the pp. I don't think the exedy would hold up with a jrsc.

you honestly think FM is going to refund you money because you don't know how to drive or spell?

the problem isn't their products or oil. it's you.

It's a WEAR item If you're slipping, it's worn. To prevent this, learn how to engage the clutch instead of burning it up on shifts

Default Thanks

Wow. Thanks for all the friendly advice.
Sarcasm.

This place is terrible. Is that how you guys always welcome new people?

Thanks to the person with actual advice.

I think your right the exedy is rated at 166lb of tq vs 300 on fm.

And to the dick hat smart *** wondering why fm would refund me..

Because i asked them?!.. and obviously if i salvage my pp I would have an unopended unused pp i bought within 30 days.

And thanks to ppl telling me i dont know how to drive or spell. Hard to belive there are other languages in the world and parts where urs isnt the main one.

And like i said there is oil in the bellhousing..

Not gonna lie honestly dont think ill post here again.. Love the vibe.

Peace

English is my 3rd language.

Let's play a game: you don't act like a whiney entitled noob, and you might get serious answers.

You are right. My apologies. im def a whiny noob.

Thats true.

I am a new comer to this supposedly OPEN. and FRIENDLY community seeking help from fellow like minded enthusiasts.

Am I in the wrong place? Did I some how click on a link that teleported me into a video game called league of legends (or insert any video game with **** community)

Whiny noob = reaction to getting flamed on my first thread.

I asked a pretty simple question. and got a bunch of ...

meany heads.

So My question is this. Were YOU not a noob at something at some point in your life?

how would you feel if you got a cold shoulder the first time you met someone.
