well driving home on the mass pike i just cruising at 70mph in 5th gear at 3.5k rpm. when all of a sudden my RPM raises without me even touching the gas and now i down shift like wtf. and yeah every gear my car doesnt move. the clutch doesnt sound like it engageing at all. woo to pulling the motor again to find the problem.
first ill check thing like the slave cylinder ect. but im so confused cause i dont hear any moving parts when i shif an let the clutch out. i cant feel anyhting in the pedal at all. /rant ps this sucks.

im hoping my clutch setup is ok and that my flywheel bolt havent sheared off or worse.

an easy way to verify the gear ratio would be to have jeff take a pic of his MPH at 3-4k. then have somone else with a s54 do the same.


the max speed per gear, listed aboive, is compared at different RPM's...by the way.

I'm about 99% sure it would be the same speed @ the same RPM. If not the same then very close. I think Manny is running the same profile tires I am. So we can check with his car.

This saturday I'll take a pic of 5th gear @ 4,000 RPM.

Also,
3 sets of tires 15" Stockers, 17" Falkens, and my drag radials. All break loose on the passenger side first. I can assure you its not tire pressure. What it is I couldnt tell you, it has boggled me since the first time I noticed it.
