Hey Guys. Ok, my clutch is startin to slip when i launch which means she is on its way out, but i am saving up for a Beams 3s-ge. I have a 3s-fe atm. Could a heavy duty clutch fit both engine? Cheers |

Yeah, i dont want the GT4, as im planning on getting the BEAMS.. and the SS3. well they are awesome cars, but i would rather do a car up.. its more fun and i like to know what i have done to my car, and since i have had mine for so long without any probelms, i really dont see the point in buying a new car.. My one will cost a bit in the end but its all part of it. There is no point people having a project car when they arent willing to put money into it.. And its all good experience doing stuff for your self just in case you have problems in the future and need to fix it, if you get what i mean. |

Hey guys. This is the beginning of my project. Took a couple of hours to rebuild and paint the front brakes. Got new rotors and pads and flushed out brake fluid. Jackey, the helper dog. Piston fitting. After, the black really brings out the wheels and brakes. Before i painted the inside of the guards. |

Oh true, its good to hear such good feed back ae, so keen to do it asap but lack of funds at the moment is stopping me. But 200hp is plenty for the road anyway. i mean my 3sfe still makes it too 180kms, (slowly). but actually has good torque in the lower gears, so i hope the beams is the same except alot my faster top end |
