I'm going to say...

Stella

Then you can go, "STELLAAAAAAA!!!!!!" as you fall to your knees shaking your fists at the sky when anything goes wrong.

My vote is for either GT-whore or Stella

That's one sexy power steering pump...

Was granted some free time Saturday to dig into the issue.

Found a new use for the lift:

The box fought me a bit. I guess now we know why:

As I removed the pressure plate bolts, things started to fall out...

After all is said and done:

I'm glad it's not the box. Now I just need to order up parts to get it back together.

Awesome. Easy peasy!

Well there's your problem. tongue.gif At least it was just the clutch.

2001 Miata LS 5-speed
Well that clutch hub jumped the **** out of there. Thankfully it didn't do any damage to the surroundings!

I am beyond amazed that everything stayed concentric after it sheared
That’ll stop a car from moving under it’s own power pretty quick...

No photos, but I did get the intercooler pump rebuilt last night.

It won't be making any more noise. We tested it with a power probe after reassembly and it still made a little noise, but you won't hear it when it's in the car. woot.gif

Huzzah!

After it being apart for more than 6 weeks, I need to start celebrating even the little victories.

Who knew that kids required so much time.... laugh.gif

Even small steps forward is still progress.

They're worth it though, and no one can fault you for having priorities in order. thumbsup.gif

Well, I thought I had all the parts to change the clutch, but when I pulled off the flywheel to replace the friction disk:




Turns out, this flywheel was from an early production run that Fidanza did for the 3S, and they no longer support the old bolt pattern. It took two weeks, but in the end, they took really good care of me and we worked out a deal for a new flywheel. Let's just say, that they have earned my return business and my recommendation to anyone looking for a lightweight flywheel. Customer service was top notch.


Now, I can start getting this thing back together.

Aside from the clutch chatter I get, I really like the Fidanza flywheel that I have in the Supra.

Good customer service is where I always go. That's why I love Amazon so much. I've used and abused their return policy so much, and they continue to keep me as a customer because I know I'll always be taken care of.

Forgot to mention that my new plates came in too....

I cant see any pattern difference between the two. Must be rlly rlly small
You're gonna get profiled double hard Chris, for being brown and for being racecar.

Wait, maybe they'll think Stace is driving and won't pull you over, sneaky sneaky!
