Thanks everyone!

It's been one Loooong journey for sure!

Love the video Jed! Thanks for putting that together for me. Can I have a DVD copy?

Heading off soon for a long break-in drive to San Diego.

Man Bill, you must feel like 'king of the world' today. I just hope the past 6 months of hell are all forgotten for you and th quote a line from The Girl Next Door, "The juice is definitely worth the squeeze!"

Congrats Billster

How's the new clutch feel? I know you have to be easy for a few but curious as to how SOTP feels and the new clutch?

Bill I'll make you a DVD, the quality is lost with the conversion to Photobucket. But a DVD will look killer! I want to mix down some of the audio better too. I was losing it last night, just wanted to post it fast while the iron was hot!

Enjoy your first trip in the new TR down to SD with Fly & Leo, I know its going to be memorable

Live life dude!

Pedal feels slightly harder than stock. Clutch engagement feels smooth and linear.

I do have to give it a bit more gas when leaving 1st, possibly because of the new aluminum flywheel (not enough mass to keep the engine rotating off idle).

I'm sure the clutch still has to break in still, so I'm sure the pedal feel will change slightly.

As for the motor, dunno if from the blueprinting and blalancing, but during the short burst to 3500-4000 rpm's, it feels like a high end sewing machine!
