    clutch pedal problems

    Update... Took it to the shop. I was thinking the new cable I put in was too short, because now the clutch disengages after pushing the pedal only about 2 inches. The guy looked at it, and the cable is fine. Apparently the problem is the clutch itself. It has worn out (has been in for only...

    clutch pedal problems

    The quadrant, firewall adjuster, and steeda cable were all put on when I had an aftermarket clutch installed by a professional. I bought the new cable from a stealership. Called ahead and asked specifically for a clutch cable for a 2003 Mustang GT. If they messed up, I don't know how I could...

    clutch pedal problems

    Bigger problem now. The clutch engages way too high (probably not fully engaging now). I have the adjuster screwed all the way against the firewall. Correct me if I'm wrong, but adjusting towards the firewall should make the pedal engage lower. When I snapped the other cable, I had been...

    clutch pedal problems

    How did you put the rubber piece on the OEM cable through the Fiore firewall adjuster? The steeda that I just took off seemed to fit in that hole perfectly, but the OEM piece is a lot bigger diameter. Am I going to just have to cut it down? Also, what do I do with this other part that seems to...

    clutch pedal problems

    I was hearing a popping noise occasionally. I wonder if it was slowly fraying, strand by strand. Then a couple of days ago I had that big pop, which probably frayed a bunch of strands, making the cable a little bit longer, leading to the really low engagement. I was trying to fix it so I could...

    clutch pedal problems

    Heard a loud snap when I pushed the clutch in one day, and ever since then I have to push much farther to disengage the clutch, to the point that the clutch still isn't fully disengaged when I push the pedal to the floor (hard to put in gear, even some grinding occasionally). I looked at the...

    strange transmission noises

    Don't know any "trusted" mechanics up here and I want to get it fixed quick so I guess I'll take a trip to the good ol stealership. Thanks for the info everyone. Will update with how it turns out.

    strange transmission noises

    No problem, sounds like the same kind of info I'm looking for. That's what I suspected in the back of my mind but was really hoping it wasn't. How hard of a thing is that to check and fix? Will I be able to tell if the mounts are bad just by looking at them? Edit: Just realized... a few...

    strange transmission noises

    2 probably unrelated issues here... wondering if anyone has experienced them or can shed some light on what's going on. Got about 20k miles on my viper T56 with spec stg 2+ clutch, steeda adjustable cable, fiore micro-click adjuster set up. I've been encountering 2 strange noises. First, and...

    Wheels i cannot afford and love, but really?

    As stated before, the FR500's were modeled after Euro wheels. It's pretty hard to find a truly unique wheel design. And most of em are ugly.

    Question about CA Intakes

    I actually have fitment problems with my JLT. It contacts the shock tower and when the engine is running it makes a squeaking sound as it vibrates and rubs against it. I'm running a KB s/c though, so the OP probably wouldn't have this problem... anyone else experience this, either n/a or...

    Sweet wheels man. How much do they weigh?

    tires / traction

    I doubt you'd be "fine" with 275/35's. I was running 285/35's on heavy ass 18x10.5 wheels BEFORE the KB and I could still break them loose. Now I'm running 305/35 NT555R's and it hooks pretty good on the street. Takes effort to spin em from a stop. But I'm also running a Viper T-56 which has...

    looking at sport quads

    The YFZ has the best power to weight ratio in it's class. Been a good quad for years, and they've finally fuel injected it for 09. I'd go for one... mainly because my senior mechanical engineering design group is building a race car using an older YFZ450 engine, and we are wishing we could get...

    Who has done a T56 swap?

    You need a shorter driveshaft. Stock one can be modified I believe (cut, new yolk put on). I just got an aluminum Cobra driveshaft.

    Trilink vs MM torque arm vs Griggs torque arm

    So you're saying you want to go with a Watt's Link? I'm not 100% sure, but I believe having one of those requires running dumps.
