Jozinobi Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 ^^!Engine UpdateYesterday I went to my mechanics to collect the head and stuff to take to the head specialist for reshimming. Turns out one of the shim buckets was missing. Rather than wait for a new one, after some phone calls I managed to track some down, my tuner had spares. I took the emu over so he could take a peek, said it was dead on etc.Today I took the head etc to the machinist for the reshim, after a brief chat I trusted that I could leave it in his hands. I will be getting it back Monday which is good news.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sx_turbo Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 excellent project mate.on a side not though, those "fake autobahn" pics you have been given are not correct at all, i can garuntee you that it is wrong.exedy clutches do have full cirlce rivets aswell.the way to tell is that on autobahn clutches it does not have the "daikin clutch" logo stamped into the clutch plate, you cant tell from pics like that they need to be up close.there is a lot of scare mongering going around at the moment.i know as where i work we sell exedy clutches Quote Link to post Share on other sites
