Test phase nearly complete...have another free clutch!

[APM Tuned]

If you haven't yet seen this post...you need to check it out.

It's for the 5 speed guys that are wanting to keep the five speed alive! Who wouldn't? Great gear ratios, no crazy expensive conversion costs (these aren't cheap like per-say the LGT swap but it's not an STI swap money!) and there will be options!

Both a Dogbox and a Syncromesh options will be available, I think this can really help push the WRX transmission in the right direction without all the hassles of some other companies.

[IMG]The gears[/IMG]

On top of this, we're looking into creating a case stabilizer for the public to further help with holding the trans together and giving the public another option. We've used a protoype version in a rally car and so far it's holding the torque, however, the gears would be the next step to further help from having input shaft and main shaft failures.

Someone had designed something similar to the stabilizers for the 5 speed and sold them but for some reason they either didn't sell well or there were issues in getting some parts because I've only seen a few out there.

FREE used FJK1000 STI Clutch, Get an install performed in house at 300 for the service and 60 for the flywheel refinishing and get a used FJK1000 STI Clutch (with approximately 7K on it) for FREE.

Also, for those who'd like to know how it's free. A client wanted to go with an upgraded unit and had this installed at a different shop...everything was perfect on it he just wanted to change it before he would have needed to as he is pulling the trigger on getting a built motor and turbo and head and blah blah blah.

So we've had a "donations" or "pay it forward" program for a while and this is how it works...someone decides to get rid of a clutch, struts or whatever else that's in great working condition (not good, great), we allow clients to either trade a service, trade a product, get it for free or get it in part of a service for free if they require it and are low on funds.

If some one struts because they have lower springs on some herra frush wheels and clearly there is an investment in the car then no, or someone needs to put a slew of power to a car and can't afford a clutch...no. If your down on your luck and we can help you out...we will plain and simple.

Staring off with some tires and wheels. Thanks to Vossen Wheels for the great looking CV3's. Out of the box with 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rears!



H&R Springs will accompany the wheels and tires with more pictures being uploaded by the days end! JB Tune, some custom chrome "delete", bumper reflectors ans some mild upgrades to better feed the car are also in line!



H&R Springs getting us to setup the car with a nice low stance while retaining the daily comforts.







H&R Springs are probably the cleanest of springs to install, no issues, no binding and the fitment is pristine!



As you notice...unlike the previous pic of the front end, there's no reflector. Makes for a nice clean front end.



Not only is it a nice wide stance, when it's moving it looks even cleaner! H&R Springs, Vossen Wheels and Michelin Tires really allowed us to make Mr. Mannings' car visually gorgeous! Next up...JB tune, Intake and a custom exhaust system with chrome "delete



See the staggering...uh stagger?

We're looking into a few things for the next season, simple things that can make a work of difference in the weight department. If someone would be interested, there also a few power items as well as aethetic pleasures we're looking into.

PLEASE PM us so that we can accordingly measure out the status of your vehicle with what we'd like to achieve. PM the MYO as well as current mods and possibly what YOU might be interested in doing.

Mark,

Do you still need a car for testing? I currently have a gearset rated for approximately 400wtq, but I would like to strengthen the casing. PM me for more details.

Subian, there's more then just gear sets on the line but if that's what your interest is in then we'll talk. I'd like to get someone (like yourself) with the power to suit what we'd like to make as an upgrade.

I'll be speaking with you shortly.
