Mid-life Crisis Swap
Loud ugly noises and failure to disengage leads me to believe I tore a clutch disc. Dropped it off for new clutch today.
Engine is GSR B18, in an EG hatch. (Will's) Long term would like to boost modestly 7-8 lbs daily, a bit more at the strip only if and when I can add forged pistons and better rods.
Suggestions on clutch that won't break my leg in daily driving but will hold up to abuse of occaisonal indescretions? Considering a lightened flywell as well, suggestions?
Also, got some grinds and growls, syncro on 1st fairly chewed up, planning on rebuild while the tranny is out. I was considering adding an (ITR?) LSD if in fact my GSR does not have an LSD stock.
Current set-up behaves, I thought, like it does have, ie: on smooth surfaces I can leave two tire tracks, and the inside tire tends to break loose in hard acceleration into tight left turn. On the other hand, I don't do huge tire smoking burnouts so maybe its just pretty well balanced.
