    Drove to school, drove home. Picked up brother, drove home. Realized rear overload leafs are not "aligned".


    Straightened leafs, tightened u-bolts, tightened front bumpstops, put steelies back on with hubcaps.

    I used a BFH and a breaker bar, also used a pry bar to get the sides. It freed exhaust flow up really well but didnt really changed the sound of the exhaust but you can definetly tell a difference in flow. Here is a pic of the aftermath

    Went to drive it to work, pushed the clutch pedal in and went right to the floor with no resistance. Checked the clutch master and it was empty. No leaks around it so looked at the slave. Guess where the fluid went?

    Back into the garage it goes! :brickknock:

    I did that to my cat. I actually wished that I didn't gut it.
    Running some Magnaflow, ever since i FULLY gutted the cat, you can hear this distinct "tick". I think you're able to hear the valves now lol. im not sure if i should describe it as a tick or something else. I'll think of it.

    I also think it'd allow some more backpressure for some more torque, and slightly quieter.

    6sand bags in the rear with a c-notch but no trimmed crossmember plus intense drifting = i brokeded my exhaust hanger for my magnaflow.

    lack of welder = removal of magnaflow.



    Open cat, welcome to my life again!

    Drove home in rush hour on I-5 last night, and ten miles from the house, my clutch 'has issues'.

    I have never had a problem with the thing, but pretty suddenly, it is engaging on the floor now. I will probably take a look this weekend and figure out what has happened.
