I got the car ready for the track, it just needs some tune. Who's car is ready to go to the track. I'm leaning toward going tomorrow, but i don't know. I really don't want to be the only one racing, so come on guys it's been a while let's show them what a dsm can do.

Great, I couldn't have done better!!! :P

I couldn't go, stupid clutch pump up... this time I'm fixing it period. I'm installing a brand new 1g master cylinder, so no more relief valve for me... a lot of custom work but it's almost done, I just have to go bleed it.

Update 2:40am:
Just came back from the wh, finish bleeding. The test drive felt awesome, it's night and day difference. I should have done this a long time ago.
And the best thing is that the 1g master cylinder is even cheaper than the 2g one. :D
So hopefully I will be able to go to the track on Friday. I can not wait any longer. :twisted:

What is the advantage of using the 1G Slave Cylinder, Diego? And how hard was it to get done?

The advantage is that the 2g master has a relief valve and the 1g one doesn't. The relief valve is the one to blame for all the pump issues.
It took a couple of hrs because we had to modified it some, but now it looks like stock. And the good thing is that I can actually adjust the pedal to engage farther away from the floor.
