if it's the tail shaft seal , it's prolly cause the drive shaft turns counterclockwise

ok so i figure might as well run this baby till it blows.. im on a who cares basis with the engine (im talking about the black gunk from the passenger pipe)

but besides that i finally got my clutch and im tryn to find someone with a trans stand

would it be best to take it to a mechanic just to get the hassle out of the way or wait to find a trans stand?

does anyone have any build pics of a "hydraulic" clutch change.. im a lil nervous seeing as how the "hydraulics" system comes into play

soo yea.. u guys are gonna laugh till your throats bleed right now.. the hissing that was coming from i thought was my clutch was in actuality the HEAT SHIELDS RATTLING AGAINST THE WALL! hahahahahaha.. i feel like a fukn tard.. here i am freaking out and begging people for information and buying a new clutch and now i have no use for it.. WTF am i supposed to do now??

oh so i took of the heat shields and now the infamous hiss n rattle is gone.. haha

so ima have my buddy weld on some angles so i dont have to worry about the sludge anymore.. come to think about it.. when i cut my pipes i did "try" to clean my 02 sensor's maybe the passenger side is running rich because i accidently smudged up the sensor?

Return the clutch... Simple enough solution. If it's not installed or outta the box the return should be easy.
