Yeah, Every week.

So, not sure if im going to the Autocross this Weekend or the Toys for Tots Cruise.

Would love to autocross the S, but clutch is still slipping, and i just emptied a huge chunk of the clutch fund. So im really not sure, either one will be fun, dunno.

Matt....Do the other S2k guys from your club ever post on S2ki?
I see several S2ks rolling around with modifications but never know who they are. And it seems that only a small percentage of the local guys and girls post on here. Just trying to put a name to the car.
I've seen your car once or twice. It's beautiful, I've always had a soft spot for suzuka, especially + gold.. a very nice combo in my opinon

Usually I'm in the nimbus ridgeline, the S sits in the garage...too much rain. Sometimes you'll see her... give it a few weeks and it will be hard to forget it if you do.

shes just shy of 26k, and only 4.3 of that has been me.

I dont know, my guess is its partially the ****** clutch delay solenoid, slipping the clutch as i drive hard to ease stresses on the Transmission, heard that caused clutches to go earlier. prolly need to get that little pos off the car.

Thought about taking mine off as well... process looks pretty simple.

project time?

A lot of people think that their clutch is slipping when its just the delay valve, I'd say try this first.. if your results aren't what was desired then get the clutch.

Wow, seems easy enough. I may have to give it a try. I definitely notice it on occasion.

Well, the issue at the moment is under hard driving when the Clutch Delay Valve slips the clutch, thats and i get on the throttle in that time frame, my clutch cant get enough friction to engage properly, so prolly a little bit of both.
