Back to modding:
A day after Stage 2 it was obvious the clutch has had it. :sad:
It was slipping in 4th, 5th, and 6th gear at 3000rpm.
That was no fun, so I ordered Sachs Clutch kit right away. That is disk with organic surface (not sintered) and reinforced clutch
cover.
Finally had the parts installed last Friday.
Stalled the car twice before I could move away the first time. :embarrassed: That reminded me of Jeremy Clarkson stalling FQ400 in the episode where he ran it against the Lambo. :smiley:
Pedal movement is much shorter now, and the pedal is heavier, just like it was on our beloved Alfa Romeo. :smiley:
Now have to run it in and get used to heavy clutch. :driver:
The car is very aggressive now, especially when moving away in 1st, so I guess no winter driving unless I buy winter tyres.
Peskarik:
Next "mod" is already next Friday.
The mod is in a box in my living room and looks like this:
It's RNS510 I bought on Ebay. :drinking:
Peskarik:
Next mods that will happen for sure are:
1) VF Engineering engine mounts (unfortunately VWR do not reply to emails, as I was ready to buy their parts.)
2) OZ Racing Alleggerita alloys in 8x18 size :party:
