Just My Luck
 
Well when i bought the camaro i knew i would have to replace the clutch sooner or later because it occasionally slipped, but its been getting worse and worse and finally it slipped pretty bad and the pedal got stuck to the floor and when it finally came back it doesnt feel the same and it seems like the clutch isnt fully disengaging and it chatters pretty bad no on take offs. SOO its gonna be time for a new clutch idk what kind... probably have Slowhawk install a Monster.

And then yesterday i was driving and the rear driver brake line blew in my explorer and luckily i made it home with no brakes. so i'll be replacing that tomorrow after class.

Damn man. That sucks.

mormjatt 05-09-2010 10:05 PM

only bright side is i wont have to worry about the clutch in the future once i start to mod the car. just do it once and get it done right.

The exact same one went out on the Formy two weeks ago. Who's been chewing on our brakes?!?!

Thats good thinking. The Monster 3 is a good clutch that drives very well and takes alot of abuse.

I like the Monster Stage 3 so far, drives nice and is very grippy when it needs to be

well im gonna fix the brake line tonight and hopefully figure out what im going to do with the clutch soon. Im probably just gonna have Don do a Monster Stage 3 and keep the stock hydraulics?

smokinss 05-10-2010 08:06 PM

If your going to keep the stock hydraulics you should at least get a new stock clutchmaster from Rockauto.com. Thats what I did and it works great. Cheep too. I believe it was around 100 or so. The stg3 premium pkg from Monster comes with a new slave too.

ILuvPizzaTimes10 05-10-2010 10:06 PM

yeah man id 100% upgrade or replace the hydrualics. new master isnt expensive and like justin sed the monster comes with the slave. get it all and do it once. how awesome would that be a week later your putting more strain on the master with a heavier clutch and now the master fails. i dunno about you but i like doing shit once.....
