Triple plate may be a little too crazy......I'll look into it though. I mean my G35 clutch is already hard as crap to push in Why change now.

First of all, don't dog my civic. We all go through a phase *cough ricer william* but my civic ws really clean and it was done tastefully. I need to post some pics

Secondly, exedy still couldn't hold up to the power I made and I went with an ACT 6 puck sprung instead of a sold face and it did the trick for hwy and track

You missed out on the grubbs meet when we talked to Tim and his 600+ hp 350z. He was telling us his clutch stories...pretty cool guy.

I'll have to talk to my boys about more clutches. I still have a month to work these types of things out. But Continues with the feedback...it certainly can't hurt.

Well, I still bowdown to the almightly GTR, you are certainly lucky. I wish I can cross that car off my car list. Seriously, you just need to pimp it in D-town. Won't it feel weird to go back and forth between the G and skyline?

So far after having driven a GTR and GTS-T around, you don't feel weird when you get in it, until you don't do if for a while, then it gets tricky. But if you do it pretty regularly you build muscle memory like you would for anything else. It always takes a few minutes to get used to it again, but after that you can really do it all day.

I just posted our little clutch question on the skyline forums to see what those guys will come up with for the best clutch in my situation. We shall wait and see.

Thats awesome man, i can't wait to see it. As far as it being weird to drive, when i come back home here to england and drive, i dont even think about it. Other than reminding myself to drive on the correct side of the road, but as far as being on the other side of the car its pretty normal. The only tendency at first is that it is hard to get used to being in the other side of the lane when you drive and you tend to drift into the middle of the lane because you are used to being on the left side haha. I personally think though that having the steering wheel on the right side feels more natural.
