4418, First run in my RS.....clutch broke :(
Posted by Initial DSM, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
What a mess. Evo vs STI day at E-town. Well its non turbo, but i guess I just was curious to see how it would run and get some practice time in. 16.7 , and 16.9 . I couldnt go into 3rd gear; 1st run not so bad, 2nd run even worse. I took aprt my shifter console later and also realized im missing a bracket that keeps the shifter from wobbling in gear; which made it harder for me to shift smoothly. Anyways , only got 2 runs in before my clutch went. thanks to Extreme97nt, Brokenrodguy, Remy , and Bigbald for helping me reinstall my belts that flew off :( , and for the AAA card to tow the jalopy home. :)
anyways here are the two runs. I wonder what I shoulda run if i didnt miss gear and slowed down?

R/T .524
60' 2.467
330 6.808
1/8 10.481
MPH 64.75
1000 13.924
1/4 16.926
MPH 74.28

2nd run

R/T .311
60' 2.544
330 6.903
1/8 10.545
MPH 64.02
1000 13.973
1.4 16.777
MPH 81.30

Those arent bad times for a non turbo RS. I have a 98 RS and the first time i ran it i made four passes the only mod i had then was an APEXi 3" intake and i was runnin 16.8 to 16.2 as it cooled down outside. But i didnt have any trouble with my clutch. I have done some more ugrades since then and Im at 14.7 but no turbo YET!!!!
