Bad run at the track, could have been easy 13's
BITCHASSCRACKER ---- YOU AND YOUR SHITTY CLUTCH!
Went to the track yesterday with 14psi, 9psi antilag, bitchasscracker clutch, new motor mount inserts, new tune, spark plugs, fuel rail, and fuel pressure regulator, and all seasons tires, the interior was mostly gutted aswell.
Could have easily been a 13.9second run but 1st was good 2nd was good, 3rd didnt catch at all, 4th same story, 5th for last ditch attempt, with no luck.
Past 2nd gear I kept it at like 50% throttle!
Also it took me awhile to stage because, I was using the ebrake for the first time instead of the foot break!
Dont worry I expect the flaming to come. I started building this with no knowledge of motors or turbos last year when I was 17, this is the first summer/ track season I have had it!
Edit: Thats my dad filming saying jeez, hes never heard 2 step or a turbo in a honda, haha and thats my mom in the backround saying, "Thats gunna make me sick!" hahaha

Re: Bad run at the track, could have been easy 13's
sorry to hear about your clutch but yeah, id replace that soon lol. a friend of mine is runnign 11.7's on 14 psi with z6 and full street trim with the exeptions of the slicks. on the expensive days when the actually prep the track he hits 1.7-1.8 60'. but on the ghetto wednesday when its cheap he can only cut a 2.0 at best and his ---- drops almost a whole second. just replace your clutch and your ---- will be alot funner to drive. nice work so far though

For example, the 88 HF I bought from him probably about a year ago, said it had no cancer rust just some surface rust that could be sanded off. Got the car home and took a closer look, back half of it was entirely rotted and covered in like 1/4" or more of bondo. I didn't make a real big deal out of it because I got the car pretty cheap and didn't feel like I got burnt that bad. However it doesn't surprise me to see that he sold JD some worthless pistons, and sold you a worthless clutch.

When will you guys learn the painted pressure plates from ebay are stock
Buy an act or one from lsd mike and enjoy breaking transmissions before clutches
I have an act clutch that saw 7+years of abuse and just cut 1.7's 60's on a 12 sec d15b. Had to replace the disc plate is still solid.

im running this one on my built z6 shooting for over 300hp. might be a little overkill for your set-up as it sits, but at least if you build the motor you wont need to upgrade the clutch. pedal feel is fairly stiff but the engagement isnt too harsh for the street.

Re: Bad run at the track, could have been easy 13's
im also running an lsd clutch and pressure plate and its been holding up great, its on its second engine. I will put it to the test when i get my car tuned. The clutch is a 6 puck un-sprung. It is a little harsh for the street i think but i like it alot and am used to it now and i can drive it with out any jerking or problems but others who never drove it stall it frequently. The pedal is a little on the stiff side but id rather be on the stiff side others may not. all in all im 100% satisfied with it. LSD FTW
