Anyways, my cousin is running a 6 puck he had laying around up to me. I think it might be a JGY or something. Not really too sure of the brand. Should be up and running in no time!


My last Centerforce clutch that came with the car just fell apart like that, one day was fine, never a sign of slipping then all the friction material fell off. Looked like this when it came out:


Replaced with the GregV JWT/B15SE kit, never an issue since despite some pretty hard track and autox use.

^^ are you sure thats a centerforce? It has Nissan stamped on it.
Maybe it was a OEM disc?
Why would a centerforce say Nissan?

No, they get dug out, cleaned off, run for awhile, if the roads are dry, I take 'em for a drive. I park them there because I have to keep the driveway clear to clean it off. Then they cycle in and out of one garage bay when I'm working on them. My bigger worry when they're sitting outside having a branch land on one - wind and ice storms sometimes drop some pretty large stuff.

Winter here is just too rude to drive them in the salt once the snow really flies, both CA cars w/o rust, I drive my truck or my G Coupe a lot in Winter - lol, they're a lot easier to replace!

I 'need' that additional 3+ bay garage but even on 3 acres I don't have a large enough flat space that doesn't get me in zoning trouble to build anything that large

Tree pruning. I have some expertise in that and have always loved well-trimmed trees. Immediate gratification work. I've got every possible tool to get the job done right. (Although I'd love a 30-foot verticle cherry-picker lift.) Keep those suspect branches at bay. Trim that shit tight.

Good question. Dave C described it as CF, I never even questioned it, or looked at it all that closely...just had a few pics from when the 10:1 went in, couldn't really tell then, took the above pic before I tossed it. Does look pretty basic in hindsight, similar to my crappy G Coupe clutch (which died at 30k miles, way under-spec'd for Z/G and all too common). At least that one showed slippage before it was tow-truck time.

Good advice, I try to keep things back, but realistically I live in the middle of woods with 100' trees surrounding everything except the lawn and house area, many of them just across the prop line. The one I'd really like to take down isn't mine, the Maple you see here right over where I park. I cut it back but if that bitke falls, 6 days out 7 it's gonna land on something I care about. Maybe if I offer my neighbor some incentives...

ever thought about those cheap plastic deals to throw up during winter or something? my friends parents have one they keep some stuff in and it does pretty good just keepin stuff mostly dry and free of snow.. i bet they would help with branches an stuff too an i think you can get them big enough to fit 2 cars
