Enlighten us please. lol
Sorry dude.
So, i'm gonna fit the F28, gonna pop and pick up a empty casing for ease of fitting. I have the mount kit here ready. So i can start stripping the bay as soon as the guy i've asked to weld it on lets me know a price.
F28 will be rebuilt by Pitstoppete off Mig, I'll make the out sides look pretty. Will be fitted with a Quafe diff, new LUK clutch and a light weight billet flywheel.
Then i need to remove the engine for a bit of rebuilding fun. Might fit a set of APRs, get the engine all sorted, Picking up a Phase 2 ECU and boost adjuster thing which will be fitted along with a xe inlet cam and adjustable QED pulley.
Then i'll be smoothing in the F28 mount and working out if i paint the whole bay or not. While doing that i'll strip the under side bare and 3M seal that and paint that body colour. While i'm in the rear arches, might look in to turreting it too..lol
That will be a job for Mr Welder tho...
Not considering the paddle clutch then Benn?
I would mate..
Benn's not sold on them though.
i wouldnt go back now, nto with turbo power anyway
Personally i love them! makes me laugh, loads of people think there doing a burn out at the drag strip but most with a non sld and normal clutch are spinning the near side wheel and burning the clutch, i know with the atb and the paddle I'm doing a proper burn out etc, cant fault it..

I drove Jamie F's TB'ed Astra with one, really didn't like the on/off of it, have driven two Evos with them too and found them the same. I like the softness of a normal clutch, makes town/traffic driving easier.
Which is something i want. I have talked to vxlgsi who does the flywheels about uprated clutch bits. There arn't cheap! ButCant see i'm gonna get that out of what i've planned, so surely a normal one will be fine...Quote:
