I don't think my car like the Gram lights... haha.... My tranny started clicking...And not too long after it decides to only have fourth gear!! I had to drive about 20 miles..haha.. Its hard as hell to take off in fourth gear, thank God the Ka has Torque! so now I am in the market for a tranny? Any have one! haha :bowdown:

... both will require a little legwork on your part to find, but may work out to be worth your while, I would suggest the second more so than the first, because there aren't many Zilvians in Kan's Ass and car-part will let you search down to your local area/region, therefore foregoing the rape you would take on shipping

yeah, it was only 4th gear that worked for me too...

so how exactly did we break our trannys? The only thing I did was break traction hard shifting into 3rd gear

I was drifting in a parking lot a couple of nights before... Then I started noticing noises. It only took about 50 miles of driving after that & it was toast...

I have a SPEC stage 3 and it used to make all kind of noises and whinding sounds and I couldn't put it in gear unless I shoved it in there but now it's ok when this clutch is gone I'm going with an ACT.

Try some performance tranny fluid. Usually it's not ur clutch but the fluid. I doubt if any clutch manufacturer would let the clutch be marketed if it has such a huge defect. My tranny would burn fluid when it goes under hard acceleration. Like after I do a 1/4 it would smell like tranny fluid around and in my car. It's on it's way out. I just hope it lasts until summer for a complete engine/tranny make over.

Its not that the clutchs have defects its just that usually when people put after market clutchs they tend to grab a lot harder which puts more stress on the tranny Sizzoo with your case its basically the same thing, if your breaking traction, (especially going into 3rd) as soon as your tires grip your sending shock to your tranny.

OMG I havent heard so much BS in awhile, first spec stage 3 clutches are great, it is the users that suck. What happens with the spec's is you need to adjust the position of your clutch pedal and get rid of that dampner box and rubber clutch line. Once this is done you will see the glory of a spec clutch.

Obvisouly if you have to jam your shifter into gear there is something wrong????

:doh: I started talking to you and laughing cause you said he probably couldn't find one here. Then went to talking to the thread poster without differentiating.
