nice.... will be a monster - bring it to the coast and we'll see how well it runs.
Its a 6 puck clutch BTW. I doubt it is even possible to get a 6 plate clutch (for cars) outside of the hardcore drag racing industry.
This is a 4 puck clutch

Sorry guys... imageshack is a bit slow.....
Note that the radiator also needed to be moved because the turbo is too big and is in the way

You better start exercising your left leg to operate that clutch!!
Button clutches are like on/off switches. Either you're going or you're not. Puts a lot of extra stress on the drive train.
But it is worth it!! It also lets go when you want it to let go!

With that clutch you need to pray you never get to sit in bumper to bumper traffic

very frustrating and very sore leg
