Thread: THP - Pain In My A$$ - tuner haters

SO Tues night I am getting on the interstate and my clutch goes. I pull the car to the shoulder (on the left) and Make sure it is well off the road. It was well Clear of the line and even well clear of the rumble strip. It is on the southbound heading out nahville-brentwood-franklin area on a 4 lane section where it will not be busy until 4pm the next day. Lock it and my boss picks me up in his hummer(which also clears the line without issue) and I go home pass out. The car was left at 10:30pm Next morning I get my receiver and ball put it on my jeep and head to Franklin to get a tow dolly to get my car. Pull to the spot where it was left a 8am less than 12hrs later. Car is gone. Start calling the 3 different agencies that possibly have jurisdiction over the spot to see if it was towed. They all say no. After 2 hrs of screwing with them and getting the run around THP(TN Highway patrol) tells me an officer had it towed for being a safety hazard since it was parked on the line BULL F!@KING SH!T!!!! SO 2 days latter and $200 in towing costs Plus another at least 50 for a tow dolly to get it to wherever I can work on it BECAUSE an officer saw a lowered 2 door Nissan with an exhaust and subs in the back and decided to have it towed. That is the only reason why it would have been towed so fast. There is a mini-van not 1 mile further down the interstate that has been sitting there for 4 days. The tow guy that delivered the car to me even said it was an incredibly fast grab by them.

Also got a summons to jury duty today....just awesome.

So what clutch should I g with? Rock auto kit or AutoZone lifetime warranty kit?

Cash is very tight atm and I am not doing anything crazy with the car.

That sucks man. I am guessing you have no recourse.

Just get the exedy kit thats stock. I think they used to be labelled "key value". Greg V sold me one for $140 or so with tob about 4 years ago. AFAIK its still in that SE-R and holding boost from a T25 kit after 40k.

I'd rather have a cop tow my car if i had to abandon it for the night rather than some thugs see a nice lowered nx sitting on the side of the road and decide to vandalize it imo.

Sucks you got the run around tho.

got the tranny out and this fell out.

Holy crap

lmao on the cluth...

THP does suck...

Dang where do you live. I am just south of columbia. And just so you know... If my car breaks I go straight home to get my truck and tow it home. I never leave it sitting.

wow thats totally destroyed

I live in cobble stone cove in columbia. just off 412/43 @ hwy 7/sante fe pike

Yeah clutch is completely owned. That morning i had to lock em up to avoid hitting this DA in a bmw that pulled out of a parking lot not looking at all. laid down 100 ft or so of rubber. that night heading home get on the interstate and start to accelerate and BAM no gears.

Hah another Columbia guy, post pics of the car.
