I have a JBracing flywheel and a OE clutch for the 330. The pedal feel in the clutch is soft, but damn is it nice and it holds VERY nicely. [5k dumps, full drifting sessions, hard 1->2 shifts)

;)You should add euro headers while you're at it, they'll help with the Sunbelts.

Nice build, should be sick!

The 6 Speed from the ZHP 330s. Same as yours.

I am running OE Clutch, JB Racing flywheel. So there is no springs in the setup. Its really not that bad. Its an acquired taste.

You can use any 240 PP with the Disc from our transmissions.

Really? I mean I new they had the same amount of splines on the input shaft, but realoem had different part numbers for each tranny so I just figured they weren't compatible. I'll have to send you a pm and pick your brain a little more:)

cranks should always be stored on their end otherwise they can sag and end up out of round

Really? Thousands of RPMs with big weights moving at the ends at tremendous speeds doesn't do it, but sitting on the ground does?

The 330 PP has these really funny springs for the adjusting PP.

As far as the disc it looks like everyother 240MM disc, just no springs and the new spline count. I compared it to my m3 disc when I had them side by side. REALLY Similar.

I know for a fact it happens with older muscle car cranks...as for when it in the engine...its not allowed sag even if it tryed due to the fact that there is the main caps holding it in, all the weight is evenly distributed

BUT im not fan of arguments in peoples thread so I say we stop
