Yay! my car is finally back from getting the damage repaired. Paint match is close, I can live with it until I have the money to respray the whole car. Most people would never even know there was a difference, but once you see it..... it cannot be unseen. I'll stick up some pictures once it stops being miserable. Which will be at least a week.
I did get to spend all weekend cleaning some of the body shop dust. I also stuck the new clutch and mounts in.
The clutch feels great. The pedal is much more firm than the SPEC clutch (in a good way, stiffer than OEM but not much). I'll have to read up on adjusting the pedal though, as it does engage quite high right now. It'll take some getting used to.
I also installed my Sakebomb Garage lights. Excellent product! I'll post some pictures of them installed, and lighting output ect when it is nice out.
The only problem I have is that now my throw out bearing is making noise. It was brand new when I put the SPEC clutch in (4000km ago), and it wasn't making noise on Friday before I started, but it is now.
I also have a new exhaust leak which is driving me nuts. It's not leaking from any of the bolt on flanges (motor or turbo), and I went over every inch of the manifold before I put the motor back into the car. It must be from the V-band flange.
