Yes Guys as was previously mentioned the Long awaited Clutch did arrive. Flywheel was brought to the machine shop to modify and was fitted on afterwards, and torqued to 98 nM (yes with locktight) We now in the process of torquing it down the clutch. Engine and gearbox already together. Transfercase is on as well.. Waiting on the Turbos from the machine shop, the manifolds are being ported before we place them on. Stock exhaust was removed as well from the car in preparation for the install of the new one. Engine Bay was cleaned as best as Kian (White Evo5) and Myself could.. All in all we are moving as best as we can looking forward to the finish line....

You brought the flywheel to a machine shop in Russia???

[ceelos]

yup a red russian from town who happens to be one of the member's of ODO's fada..

NE ways We finally got the clutch bolts in. Just to be torqued down properly will be done tomorrow afternoon, the gearbox bolts will be torqued as well. We will do a few finishing touches while we wait for the turbos to be ready from the "russian" Shop (blame Damien for that name).. All in all I'm happy with the progress so far...
