Well I messed up my throwout bearing tonight spraying a 99-04 Mustang GT.. I destroyed him but now My Thowout bearing is making all kinds of racket.. Its a stage 3 clutch with the spec bearing.. I still have a stock tranny and a stock rear end, that is really making some racket also.. I figure I should run all motor untill I get a tranny and a rear so I can enjoy the summer in vabeach.. If I keep on spraying my car then I will most likley break something and wont be able to drive it.. but man I changed my spark plug wires today and found a semi burnt wire and boy did that really wake up my car.. When I ran the GT we were doing a 60mph roll and when I hit it the rear just broke loose on me.. It was pretty bad a$$.. So but anyways no N2O for me for a while :(

SOrry to hear it... Its why I gave up on my nitrous endeavor... Just more money then I wanted to spend, and I likely needed to spend to get the results I wanted. Sure the nitrous itself isn't too bad but then you have...
-dyno tuning
-likely need of better clutch
-likely gonna break my transmission(I have a history of wrecking T5s and other drivetrain components)
-and likely need of something like hptuners
that stuff really jacks up the price.-Eric<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/mustangeater82\" target=\"_blank\">2000 NBM V6 Camaro 5-speed</a> T-top <i>converted</i><br /><b>14.467@95.45mph</b> <i>$0 in mods</i><br /><i>The member formerly known as MustangEater8251</i>

Well I have a spec stage 3 clutch.. I knew I was going to break $hit but you got to pay in order to play.. Just purchased a new throw out bearing and clutch master cylinder today at advance.. It comes with a lifetime warrenty.. The throw out bearing itself is 50.00 and this whole new clutch master cylinder comes with a new throw out bearing for 70.00.. Tomorrow I am going to pull the tranny and hopefully get in running..Jeff ..

Dont power shift and the tranny will last for a while.. I was spraying on my 1st tranny for 1 year 1/2 and then I learned to power shift.. The tranny broke 3 months after I learned how to beat on it..Jeff ..

Well we replaced my throw out bearing tonight and the noise is still there.. I think it might be my input shaft bearing on the tranny.. If so that makes 2 broke T5's in 4 months.. Not bad.. I am going to take it to My buddy who works on trannies for a living to let him hear it and if it is the tranny for sure then g-force here I come.. You got to pay to play..Jeff ..

Do the G-Force upgrade. I want to know how that works for you since that is my plan eventually. Might as well let you be the guinne pig. :D2001 Firebird 3.8L V6 M5,<br />It once had....<br />NX Nitrous Wet Kit, ZZP X-P Hot Cam, <br />3.42 LSD, Pacesetter Headers, <br />36# Injectors, HP Tuners<br />322 RWHP, 379 RWTQ<br />13.596 @ 102.56 w/100 shot

Its an upgrade for the T-5 manual trans in our cars. Here is a thread about it.

Of course, this is only for real drivers, you know, the ones with manual transmissions!

I agree that the autos are faster, and believe me, at the track I wish I had an auto. However, I have to give James a hard time about something! ;) ;)2001 Firebird 3.8L V6 M5,<br />It once had....<br />NX Nitrous Wet Kit, ZZP X-P Hot Cam, <br />3.42 LSD, Pacesetter Headers, <br />36# Injectors, HP Tuners<br />322 RWHP, 379 RWTQ<br />13.596 @ 102.56 w/100 shot
