Yes it has given me headaches here an there, but I expect that when we push our cars the way we do. I wish I had that car payment as well. Would have had more money to do more mods
my kids love my car, but my oldest says my car is too low and we should take moms car because of speed bumps.................he is 8

Hahah my 2 sons are the same thing, they tell daddy can you drop me off and i say why, they tell my i wanna go fast vroom vroom plus he even makes a sound of squirching tire. When my little one is in the car he always says daddy your fast but mommy car slow hahaha. As for payment I was done in less that 2 yrs, it feels so good not having no car payment it has been almost 6yrs.

Can anyone suggest a good clutch for my VIII?
I have the exedy stage 2 ceramic twin disk and the chatter came back. It's rediculousely annoying and embarrassing.
I'm looking for a sport clutch but still inexpensive.
I daily my car and barely WOT.

Also, anyone got a scanner I can borrow for a couple days?
I need to fix all my doodoo faults that are popping up.
One more thing, has anyone taken their ISC (idle speed control) off to clean it? If so, what sort of solution did you use?

Exedy twin disc is a good clutch, its rebuildable...imo u should stick w/it...i've had a 4 puck, 6 puck and a full disk and having to compare it to a twin....the twin outperforms, plus you can shift faster w/ the twin.....just like a Ducati man, clang clang on idle but engaged its pimp!!

I have my cpu and tatrix, I can clear you codes with evoscan. I'm in wahiawa but running around the island during the weekend. I can meet up with you at some point and help you out. pm me your number and I'll txt you mine.

Don't get me wrong. I love how it performs. I just hate the chatter. It would chatter for a few days, then be quiet for a few weeks then start chattering again for a few days.
