    Clutch Masters FX850 Users with R154

    Thanks! I will be looking into this. Already RMA'd my FX850 once after the slave clylinder started leaking. They made me pay $500 too... :( They returned it with extra seals so it could be rebuilt without sending it out next time. Not exactly the solution im looking for as they claimed...

    Driving from Montreal to Calgary

    I'm about to drive the opposite way, vancouver to connecticut. Going through canada most of the way, but will be avoiding the transcanada through the canadian shield. I've heard many people tell me its terrible, lowest speed limits around and a billion ontario police there. Will be ducking...

    12:1 compression bad idea for boost?

    But not pump gas, I believe that mixture is about 85% Toluene. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toluene "Toluene at 86% by volume fueled all the turbo Formula 1 teams in the 1980s, first pioneered by the Honda team. The remaining 14% was a "filler" of n-heptane, to reduce the octane to meet...

    12 people eh? If I register it sounds like I'll be a shoe-in for fastest mk3 for the 3rd year in a row!? Wahahaha.... Maybe if I can get over my fear of the american boarder shredding my car (happened to a few people I know, complete disassembly), plus I don't have a passport. Maybe its...

    Ultra High Performance Summer or All Season? Kumho Ecsta SPT and ASX vs others

    @Figit090 Honestly I feel the spt's are fine (for me) in freezing and rainy conditions (hence they are my winter tire). But it should be noted that I never boost/speed in the winter or questionable conditions. You know that feeling when you get used to your power level that anything less...

    Ultra High Performance Summer or All Season? Kumho Ecsta SPT and ASX vs others

    Funny you ask. I kept my r1r's in my bedroom closet over the winter, and I started to really enjoy the smell. Fastforward to last week: I'm driving back from getting the NT01's and there in the back hatch. I was thinking about how good the smell was when the smell changed from sweet fresh...

    Ultra High Performance Summer or All Season? Kumho Ecsta SPT and ASX vs others

    As the resident tire tard, I shall chime in about safety, I live in the same city/climate as grimjack. Since I got a t67, I only drive on r-compound march-october and I use kumho spt's as my winter tires. This last winter, just before removing my Toyo R1R's I picked up an 8" bolt and...

    Brake Upgrade ??

    +1 for arz willwoods in general +3 for arz willwoods if you have asperations for more power After my swap was finished I nearly wrecked off the highway. I knew the old stock brakes would suck, but after riding to the top of fourth to atleast "see" what this T67 would do on 16 psi, I found out...

    Project X, 2jz swap

    I'm thinking it might have to do with the turbine housing being 0.68 A/R. This setup seems to have a similar length power band as other 67's but starts ~1000 rpm sooner. It seems like others are 5000 - 8000 power bands while this is more of a 4000 - 7000 rpm power band. What do you think?

    r154 top gear speeds?

    While you didn't, searching the internet revealed (for me at least) only 225/50/R16 for Kumho Ecsta SPT's Had I made such a claim without evidence, the misinformation task force would have striked swiftly

    r154 top gear speeds?

    I've lost sight of wether what I'm posting now is inane or not so i'll leave it at this. I only posted in here because I was once concerned with the top speed an r154 could give me. (as i have significantly more power then stock) After checking out the ratio's I found my concerns...

    r154 top gear speeds?

    Firstly, I made no assumtions of the OP's setup. I know nothing about it. My comments are directed only to someone (regardless of setup) who is concerned with the speed a r154 can deliver to them. If you want to go fast you need power. I suppose I could have assumed instead, that the OP...

    r154 top gear speeds?

    All right i was having a bit of fun with my claims of hate =P It's no secret how one would go about to raise the rev limit. Obviously purchases are required. I find that someone who is concerned that their r154 doesn't have enough speed in the gears, has enough power/budget to get there...
