Re: Mark's Evo IX MR Winter Projects

I forgot to review how the car drives with the new clutch. I had a dsm qm for many years, and it made so much noise it wasn't even funny. The new gear drive is barely noticeable and is slightly louder than the exedy. driveability is very similar too. I'm super happy.

Oh and I needed to machine some of the throw out bearing to get it back in spec. It was like 0 clearance, it should be around 0.144 of clearance. Others have commented about this too, and some have toasted thrust bearings due to not measuring!
