    CLUTCH

    can we adjust our clutches? and will that give more clamping power? my clutch slips and i cant even do a burnout. and do you think 215/45/17's will hurt my car? i got a deal asnd i want them
    thanx

    Yep, you cooked that thing off. I cooked mine something fierce about two weeks ago... hot enough to grill steaks on.

    Best thing to do is get a new clutch... a stage 2, unless your car has been modded to the point that it will eat stock clutches, then a stage 3 is your best bet.

    nopionline.com sells 'em, they have a nice little selection of clutches to choose from. Of course, don't expect to pay the same as you would a stock clutch either.

    I'm liking the Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch Disc And Pressure Plate (90% increase in holding capacity) - LXi Fuel Injected 2.0L Engine - No Weights.

    Its not $400...

    Check around on eBay, there's almost always an OEM clutch kit or upgrade clutch kit for our cars floating around.

    This is the bad boy I got my hands on:

    "215/45/17's" got stock shocks? then ur screwed. 215? ur screwed again unless u wanna be scraping your wheel well while trying to turn. 205 is the max u can go. get stiffer shocks and coils if u dont have one and then try getting new wheels and tires.

    Lets not get frisky here. I was not talking to just you buddy, i was talking to every member who was reading it. going with 45 tirewall height is not for ur shocks, i was talking about your rims. Cause its easy to get them smacked hitting pot holes.

    Next, 215 is not for our cars, unless u run with offsets (dont know exact numbers for that). I know anything is possible, but why spend on a 215 instead of a 205 which costs u hella more $$.

    i was not trying to BUllshit or crap talk with my post, if thats the kinda impression you got. What i was mentioning was that if you wanna do it right just follow the proper procedures.

    <<<Please do not assume what i know>>>
