I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

it's a jumping, (not wheel hop, if thats what your thinking). like the monster motor is trying to break loose. i will charge 5 dollars if any one wants to see it. lol, it's a freak of nature. also it happens the most when i am going up a hill slowly. and it only happens in 1st gear.

Like bucking the car back and forth, and then you push the clutch in and the see-saw effect stops? Does this new clutch have springs in the middle, or is it solid?

my friend owed me big so i told him to fix a few things on my car, one of those things was the clutch. he got the clutch and got it installed, i'll i know is that it's a exedy clutch. i really don't think it's a racing clutch cause wouldn't i have that problem all the time. it happens really bad going up hills slowly.

Please describe "it". What happens (see above quote)?

i think thats about right with the description posted, not to sure about the springs though, never saw what he put in. (dumb of me) he could have put a dead cat in for all i know.
