The color never came out how I planned. Right from the paintbooth, I wasn't the biggest fan of it.

Red is cool, but too common and don't really want it.

Orange is cool, but not for me.

im not certain but i think inland drift is a parking lot skid pad kinda deal with tacos (as seen here being pursued by VR13), so it may be a lil better than the kart track IMMO.

Wow, he still has the balls to get behind a wheel, let alone drifting? After his former friend is a vegetable?

What a douche.

Do you have a special clutch Brian?

I was told it was a basic Exedy replacement.it's ok at best.

In my 14 I had a RPS street clutch. LOVED that thing.

I remember on my RPS that the pressure plate had EXEDY stamped into it. No idea about the actual clutch disk though...

found an RPS setup in the classifieds... seems like a decent deal. zer...24ede.

and has anyone ever had their flywheel/clutch plate "balanced" like it says in that add? it appears the that pressure plate has been drilled in spots as if to remove weight? idk... discuss.

I didn't even have that one. I had the lower one with black pressure plate and full face clutch disk.

Balance what?

I have a brand new RPS Max clutch (6 puck, 450 tq capacity) that has been balanced to a brand new XTD prolite 11lb steel flywheel.
looks like the edges of the blue thing have been machined opposite to the way you balance a wheel by adding weight... i think.
