    How do you like your clutch?

    What's up everyone? So, I just had my clutch rebuilt in my 01 cobra, all things stock... I've only driven it like 30 miles and I absolutely hate it. It is so soft, that I think I have a hole in my floor board now :( Before I had it rebuilt, due to a TO bearing crapping on me, it was firm...

    Advice on transmission '01

    So it's about that time to work on my trans... it's starting to whine and become a PITA to shift at lower RPMs .. I do like the feel of the stock clutch, because it feels like I have complete control. Not a big fan of soft clutches. What do you guys recommend for an OE identical...

    This past Thursday, my dad and I did a complete brake job on the cobra.. turned the rotors and put on some hawk pads and just wanted to say that I am impressed thus far.
