Title: New Mod Pics...
Post by: johnster on May 19, 2008, 07:36:05 PM
Just felt like posting pics..... ;D

-The new Motowheels Pressure plate/Half Cover I just installed...Great kit!!

-Matris M3 damper I just finished installing a few minutes ago..... ;D  Decided to mix it up and add some blue to match the spring keepers (okay, it's all they had left, but I thought it might look OK..... :-\ ) and the $$ was right!!   :D What do you think???

I like the clean look of the clutch cover cover and color of the PP.  [thumbsup]

Was the PP hard to install?

Thanks a lot....  :)

Was the PP hard to install?

Piece of cake!!   [thumbsup]  The hardest part was making sure the push rod was seated properly in the throwout bearing....I ended up putting the pressure plate face-down on my workbench with a towel under it, and hammered the push rod into the bearing with a rubber mallet.....After that, you literally just put the plate on (lining up the marks obviously), screwing the bolts into the posts (I used medium strength Loctite), and you're done!!

I just tightened the bolts until they bottomed out, then very gently snugged them up.....The posts are supposedly very brittle, so you can't torque them down, or you risk snapping the post off... The spring preload will keep the bolts in place...

i like it. sometimes red on red on red is just too much. it's good to mix it up sometimes.
