NitroTEE Member 8 Member For: 12y 11m 9d Posted 19/02/12 06:27 AM Share Posted 19/02/12 06:27 AM Im not sure to sure this has been brought up before, im sort of new to the site, being my first topic.Ive recently purchased a FG XR6T after being on my p plates with an XR6. The clutch has lost its pressure after me being a retard and when to launch it in third......Now my dilema is im not sure if I should go back with a new standard clutch quoted 900 fitted (genuine) from my mechanic or opt for a heavy duty clutch which ive been quoted from ABS automotive 1400 im assuming fitted I forgot to ask.Im not looking at getting ridiculous power out of the car in near future, just a tune exhaust injectors and the other basic mods so no more then 300rwkw. What would be youre recomendations and also places that you would recommend to go see in Perth! also what would be the right price mark!Cheers!
