Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

Decided to put on the Specialty X Exhaust since I had nothing better to do.

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

Sounds great! I really like the S-X catback. Did you get your drivetrain bushings installed already too?

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

No not yet. The drivetrain and rear diff bushings should be here Wednesday and Thursday. MAP drop shipped one of them (I forget which ones). I was going to wait until the bushings arrived before putting the SX on, but I didn't have much else to do yesterday so I went ahead and did part of the work required (remove driver side rear tow hook and trim the cat heat shield). That's all I was going to do, but then I had more time to do nothing so I went ahead and installed it. I know I'll have to remove it to do both sets of bushings, but I'm ok with that.

Finally have both sets of my bushings! Hopefully if the weather permits, I'll install these bad boys this weekend.

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

You're going to really enjoy the tighter drivetrain! Are we doing your cluch pill during the modding day in 2 weeks?

I decided not to do the pill. Reason being that I'm really used to how my car is now. I'm not sure how I would like the clutch with the pill out. Keep in mind that this is the first manual car I've ever owned and driven. Sure it's been 2 years that I've been driving it, but I don't know any better. Besides, I don't rip on my car like Jose does so I think the way I drive, my clutch will last me quite a bit even with the pill in. I've got ~29k miles on it and I haven't noticed the clutch change one bit so I think I'm ok.

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

Haven't done the rear diff but the driveshaft bushings would be worth the price if they were made of gold.

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

I have yet to meet a single person who didn't like it better with the pill gone; even the biggest of the ultra whiny bitch boys! I don't care how many miles you have on your car, removing it does nothing but improve the feel and lengthen clutch life.

Oh yeah, and get a MBC.

Re: Greetings MitsuStyles! Kracka recruits yet another one!

LOL wow! Can I touch my balls while you work on my car?

I do agree though; zero negative effects. Worse case scenario, we just put the pill back in for you, but I've NEVER heard of anyone wanting to do that. I really don't understand why so many X guys are afraid of this, it was the same thing with the 8/9 guys...but not quite as bad since so many were previous DSMers. My stock IX clutch actually started slipping during hard downshifts so that's when I removed the pill; I then put another 15k miles (including autocross) on the clutch without it slipping even a single time.
