what's that smell.......?
hey guys.....i found out that my car has a really strange smell when in high speed ( or high rpm).....i was "playing" with a s2k which i met him on the way to skoo..i was following him from marine drive to UBC highway. When I entered the highway....
I rev it to 8000rpm from 1st gear to 5th.......and when the car reached 183km/h ( i m not sure it ws 5th or 6 th gear around 6xxx rpm). I found out that smell, smell like "burning plastic" sth like that........do u guys have the same experienced?

Clutch!
If you upgrade your clutch, don't go with any of the 6-puck style discs, they suck. I have a hyper exedy single and I hate, hate, hate HATE it now. My Supra drives like stock and has twice the power, the S2000 has a horrible clutch engagement and SUCKS in traffic. Get a full disc if you plan to upgrade.
If not, then don't powershift. You will kill the clutch fast like I did.

The clutch is off / on. There is very little slip. It's a nasty clutch to drive around with.
Back when I had it installed, I loved it! I could shift quick without grinding, and I didn't think it was THAT bad as far as off / on goes. However, since I bought the Supra, which has TWICE the power and a clutch that is 100000 times easier in town with, I've decided 6 puck clutches suck fat dongs.
