Jimbo's B18C-R Jordan


clutch and gearbox update :))

first of all purchased a slightly used Exedy stage 2 clutch kit, used for around 2000 miles so has loads of life left yet, and the price was a big help ;) had them lying around for months now so about time i sorted them out :nice:

Just read through this again, crackin build :nice:

I'll never utter the words 'settle for a jordan' again :D :lol:
 
really nice jordan mate! really is beast! where did you get the plates? and what kinda nuts/ bolts are holding them onto the tilt bracket. I took mines of but now considering putting them back on after looking through your build haha! took it off because the bolts at the side keep loosening up =\

Cheers dude, got the plates from a company in Germany, they were around €55 and were made and delivered within 4 days :nice:

I'm using tegiwa's bolts and washers to hold the plate on to the bracket and to the car, word of advice only use the chrome bolts as the black rust instantly as I found out :( in all fairness tegiwa replaced all the bolts free of charge!
