$400 dollars to hold your tq and hp? So you mean the TQ and hp of a stock STI. hmm sounds to me like you need an exedy stage 1. Somthing mildly better than stock. Why put in a clutch that noone can drive but yourself? It's cool at first, but to be honest your sacrifice in daily driveability is not worth it.
In other words, don't put in somthing overkill you fucking ricer.

Well ya. Idealy I have a certain turbo setup I want once the snow is gone... whether that happens or not I dont know, but I would like to have everything done right, with no certain weak links.
Going with an aftermarket clutch is kinda sketchy though... The subaru trannies are not known to be the strongest. So its a good thing I dont go around launching my car like everyone tells me to do

Umm mod of the day, ghetto fixed the gas door on the bimmer so it stays closed now so it doesn't flop around all loose like a hooker in downtown Van.
Also repainted rear trunk lid grab handle/lisc plate light holder/whatever else it does.

Dont think i've ever gone this long without working on the car. maintenance is done, seems to drive very well. Aside from a clicking axle and no blower motor I must say I'm proud of the old Honda.
Used a hydrolic body ram and continued on the sprinter. Did what I could to fix the camber, but still not perfect. Close tho, but out a few degrees. Instead, I am going to make adjustable camber on the aposing side than fix the toe to not chew up the tires. 2 new fenders are finally on and aligned, bumper is on properly and the hood closes and is aligned pretty well... considering how it was.
Picked up some fiberglass resin and matting to mould in some new headlights. Going with projector style driving lights flushly mounted inline with the hood. Not sure how well the lighting will be, but I dont plan on the car being a DD ever again. Edit: Hopefully it will look like something simular to this. Nevermind my shitty editing skills

put it back in your backyard, there is no reason you should be using a picnic table for a spoiler.

Lol ^ Spoilers are a joke, I have only supported a spoiler once and it was stock on the 5.0 A buddy's gf picked it up for her car as is would go along with the racing stripes, fast and the furious paint sceme and all of the other nick-nacks; couldnt resist a test fit!
