No, no oil on the clutch, actually I'm surprised that the clutch works. I had a real hard time taking off the flexplate for the b18 to put my flywheel on. And it's just a stock GSR clutch that I ran with my turbo b16 for 3 months, it still works. The finger wear wasn't even that bad. Goes to show you that launch control does save your clutch.

I got the dealer to blead the clutch for me, I don't have one of those vacuum hoses to get the air out. Also the clutch does grip well, I get sqeeks from 2nd to 3rd at the tires.

I have NO FREAKING CLUE WHAT THIS IS, I bet oneday I'll get in my car and it will just dissappear, or something will blow up. One or the other.

The springs are new, but what do you mean by out of balance? How would you palance an axle? You can't put weights on it or anything like that.

I need some more nfo about this.

Well, I think I'm going to have to agree with you guys. Now the next question is, how do I FIX it. Or should I just get some new axles?

I'm thinking about maybe getting some ENJO axles, stage II for the turbo ls vtec. Do they come with an intermediate shaft?

What do guys know about this company, NO-ONE around me does ---- like this with their cars, and I am kinda beyond the help of the local perf shop in expertise now. I live in a ricey area.

unless u are dumping the clutch all day long I dont think you will break axles. Jeff (Abaz) uses teg axles i believe.

my shop teacher once told me that if you hear and road noise or feel and shaking/bumps then has to do with the drivetrain/suspenion/or tires... you balanced the tires, check to make sure you didn't blow a shock at some point.

And what does it mean when your car wobbles at low speeds? Mine does this but i've kinda got used to it.

Next time you drive around Just drink 30 beers before hand. you'll have to try so hard to stay on the road you wont care about the shaking plus it might keep you from passing out good luck
