Well today while thanking veterans around our area in our Veterans day parade my clutch decides to burn and start smoking... Half way through the parade my car starts to smoke bad. Even worse family and friends were about 20ft from where it started smoking. Had to bail on the parade and the club. I was the lead car too. Today sucks for me.. I have to order a new clutch or get a T5 and swap it out.

 

Sorry to hear that. BUT, if you have the budget for either of those options, maybe this is good news? New clutch or a T5 would be a blast.

 

My dad says the T5 would be cool. Just ahve to find out if it will bolt up to my 200

 

I am 99 percent sure I have heard of people doing it. Good luck with whatever you do.

 

That'll learn you to not ride the clutch.

 

Hard to when you are stopping almost every 30 feet and moving about 2 MPH.


Now my car smells like burnt metal all inside.

 

seems like you had a bad day
i beleive you can bolt it up, may need a different bellhousing though
definatly a good upgrade.
did you HAVE to ride the clutch?

 

No hills to let it coast down, multiple stop and goes on hills. I tried to give it gas and then push the clutch in, but that didn't work.

 

ah, musta have been an old clutch for that one parade and riding the clutch to smoke it like that?

 

Yeah, that kinda driving can be hard on them....or finish off a weak one. I hate when that happens!
