Re: What clutches for K8??

Also, why are there so many different formats for clutches? I found one site that offered 3 puck, 4 puck, 6 puck, and continuous friction options......what's the differences? Are more pucks better or worse? Are there tradeoffs?

Also, there's a SACHS kit on NOPI.com for $130.

What clutches for K8??

I'm not sure how hard the previous owners of my MX3 drove it, and it's at 90K miles. Plus, I am thinking I'll be adding a wet shot of nitrous some time soon for the occasional once a month 1/4 mile runs at the local speedway.<p>So I was looking at new clutches. Now first off, I'll be damned if I spe...

Re: Does anyone know if there's a green spark plug wires?

Can't you just find some high-temp flex loom and use that over the stock stuff?<p>http://www.wirecare.com/wc_product_list.asp?prod=PT&prodline=ES

Re: Problem wiring my new cd player

Just buy a wiring harness adapter from Circuit City or somewhere. You don't want to be hacking up the factory wiring if you can help it. You'll regret it later.

You shouldn't need to pay someone to do your fuel ...

Factory look vinyl

I'm going to be starting up some fiberglassing in the interior soon and was wondering if anyone has a line on vinyl that is a dead ringer for the factory stuff? Otherwise I'll need to hit up the local upholstery shop and see what I can find. Also was thinking of buying a whole dash and skinning the ...

Re: cd player installation

I've always been able to use some really, really long (4"??) thin nails. Get 4. Stick 1 through each recepticle at the side (2 each side) enough to activate the release mechanism. Then, pull the stereo out. Usually you'll need to pull one side (i.e. the left) out a couple millimeters, then the ...

Re: Help!! my mx3 died on me

Is it only doing this during the day, or early morning too? I wouldn't doubt the heat is getting to your car. What is it today? 115 F??<p>Also, might want to check the oil cap and EGR. I noticed when trying to run my car while adding an oil additive that the engine would not run right without the oi...

Re: JDM 1.8L

I wonder what the motivation would be to buy a K8ZE for $900 over a KFZE for $580??? :shrug:
