New rear pads and rotors are on, waiting on my new front rotors to get here from Tampa, then they are going on.

Hopefully can get that done before work at 5:30.

FYI, RPS clutches are re-branded Exedy/Diken units. And they really suck at packaging stuff. My clutch has a 1/4 chip in the edge of it because they didnt wrap it seperatly; they just layed it on top of the pressure plate.

So hopefully my clutch dosnt disentigrate, because I'm not waiting for a new one. I called RPS and they said I would have to order a new one and file a claim with Fed-Ex and try to get reimbursed by them.... Awesome.

I dont think it will be a monumental issue concerning the life of the clutch, but its not exactly what I wanted to see happen to something I just spent 300$ on. So yeah fuck them.

True I have no complaints about Exedy's quality or their clutches, what I bought is just a re-branded Exedy stage 1 (didnt know that). RPS just puts their name on it, But RPS as a company fucking sucks.

If the clutch plate itself lets go, then I'll replace the plate with a decent ACT unit for like 150$. Because the Pressure plate shouldnt be bothered. But its a wait and see type thing now. Hopefully the chip wont affect anything.

Attempted to put the j30 diff in..... Everything was great until I got to the yoke.... Couldn't break the 4 bolts loose so I put everything back together and still have a peg leg.... Who has a lift and wants to help me with this task? I couldn't get the car high enough to get enough leverage I tried every trick I knew for leverage and nothing, I'm pretty pissed bout that.
